FAQ: How do I make these AI images and videos? 🎨🎬 (Read here before posting!)

Hey everyone! We get asked this exact question every single day, so here is the complete, honest breakdown of how this content is generated and how you can start making your own.

There are two main routes you can take: the instant cloud tools or the free local setup.

Route 1: The Instant Web Option 🚀 (One-Click, Works on Phones)

If you do not have a high-end gaming PC, or you just want to generate high-quality, completely unfiltered content instantly without touching a single line of code, you use cloud-based platforms.

These tools handle all the heavy computer processing on their own massive servers, meaning you can do it straight from your mobile phone, tablet, or laptop browser in seconds.

We have compiled a curated list of the best, highest-rated AI generation tools, video creators, and interactive platforms that top creators actually use. You can check them out and start generating your own content immediately via the link below:

Route 2: The Free Local Setup 🖥️ (For Tech-Savvy Users with Deep Pockets)

If you want to do this completely for free without a subscription, you have to run open-source models like Wan 2.1 or Wan 2.2 directly on your own hardware. Fair warning: it is a massive technical headache and incredibly expensive to get started.

Here is what it actually requires:

• 💸 The Hardware Tax (Oh fuck, that's pricey): To even attempt running the basic 1.3B Wan models for decent 720p performance, you need massive VRAM. An RTX 4090 will set you back around £1,800 right now. If you want to run the high-quality 14B parameter models that make the flawless content you see on this sub, you need an RTX 5090, which currently retails between £2,800 and £4,199. Factor in a massive power supply, 64GB of system RAM, and heavy cooling, and you are looking at a £4,000+ custom PC build just to get started.

• ⚙️ The ComfyUI Node Nightmare: You don't just click a button and get an image. You have to install a node-based interface called ComfyUI. Instead of a normal app, you have to build visual programming workflows by manually connecting dozens of nodes together with virtual wires like a plate of spaghetti.

• 📦 Gigabytes of File Management: You have to hunt down massive .safetensors model files (often 4GB to 12GB+ each) and manually map them into highly specific directory structures on your hard drive (like /models/diffusion_models/). One wrong folder or a missing dependency, and the whole system crashes with Python errors.

• ⏳ The Render Wait: Even if you build a top-tier system with a dedicated RTX 4090, it will still take about 4 entire minutes of your computer screaming at 100% load just to output a single, 5-second video at a low 480p resolution.

Want to try it anyway? Here are the setup guides:

If you love troubleshooting command-line errors and have the hardware to back it up, here is the official documentation and the exact step-by-step guides to see what you are getting into:

Summary 📋

For 95% of people, it is significantly cheaper, faster, and easier to just use a dedicated cloud website that already has the industrial hardware ready to go.
