However, you might not have the budget to hire someone to make it. To solve that,&nbsp;Google\u2019s AI team is working on a future solution that automatically converts webpages into videos.<\/p>\n<p>Google\u2019s URL2Video tool helps you convert your website into a short video if you specify the constraints of the output video, such as the duration and aspect ratio. The tool tries to maintain the design language of the source page and uses its elements such as the text, images, and clips to create a new video.<\/p>\n<p><em>[Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/thenextweb.com\/world\/2020\/08\/11\/4-ridiculously-easy-ways-you-can-be-more-eco-friendly\/\">4 ridiculously easy ways you can be more eco-friendly<\/a>]<\/em><\/p>\n<p>To train the model, the company interviewed designers to determine important aspects of a webpage derived from heuristics. Based on these parameters, the tool analyzes a page and ranks key elements. Then based on conditions&nbsp;provided by the users, it selects top elements such as headers and images to churn out a video.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1326256 lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2020\/10\/image4-1.gif\" alt width=\"900\" height=\"413\" data-lazy=\"true\"><figcaption>Credit: Google AI<\/figcaption><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/thenextweb.com\/neural\/2020\/10\/30\/googles-new-ai-automatically-turns-webpages-into-videos\/#\" data-url=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthenextweb.com%2Fneural%2F2020%2F10%2F30%2Fgoogles-new-ai-automatically-turns-webpages-into-videos%2F&amp;via=thenextweb&amp;related=thenextweb&amp;text=Check out this picture on: By extracting the structural content and design from the input web page, URL2Video makes automatic editing decisions to present key messages in a video\" data-title=\"Share By extracting the structural content and design from the input web page, URL2Video makes automatic editing decisions to present key messages in a video on Twitter\" data-width=\"685\" data-height=\"500\" class=\"post-image-share popitup\" title=\"Share By extracting the structural content and design from the input web page, URL2Video makes automatic editing decisions to present key messages in a video on Twitter\"><i class=\"icon icon--inline icon--twitter--dark\"><\/i><\/a>By extracting the structural content and design from the input web page, URL2Video makes automatic editing decisions to present key messages in a video<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Once the video is generated, you can change colors and style to regenerate the footage according to your needs.
