AI Meme Video Maker: Generate Meme-Style Video Content

Meme-style video — exaggerated, irreverent, culturally aware — is one of the most shareable content formats on social media. For brands that want to play in that space without compromising their own actual meme pipeline, MakeThisVid generates short video clips with meme-adjacent visual energy from a text prompt. Describe the vibe, the absurdity, the visual joke — get a video back in 45 seconds. Layer your text or caption in your editor and post.

How to Use MakeThisVid

From prompt to downloadable MP4, ready to deploy.

  1. Write a scene prompt or use a reference photo

    Describe the meme scenario, visual absurdity, or comedic aesthetic you want (JPG/PNG/WebP reference optional, max 10 MB). The more specific the scenario, the more on-target the output.

  2. Choose your mode

    Text → Video: the primary mode for meme-style content — describe the situation, energy, and visual punchline. Photo → Video: animate an existing image you're riffing on.

  3. Write a meme-specific visual prompt

    Lean into the absurdist aesthetic. E.g. "Very confident small dog in a business suit sitting at a desk, warm office lighting, slow slow push in, extremely serious expression, slightly surreal." Or: "Dramatic zoom into a very confused bird sitting in front of a laptop, exaggerated motion, comedy timing." Specific, absurdist scenarios produce the best results.

  4. Generate at 720p or 1080p

    1 credit per 720p video, 2 credits per 1080p. Most renders complete in 45–90 seconds. Credits refund automatically on failure.

  5. Add your caption and post

    Download the MP4. Layer your meme text or caption in CapCut, then post to TikTok, Instagram, or X. Commercial use included on every plan.
