Are the videos sized correctly for YouTube Shorts?

Yes. You set a 9:16 vertical aspect ratio before generating, so the clip fills the Shorts player edge to edge without cropping or letterboxing once you upload it.

How long can a generated Short be?

You pick a short clip length suited to the Shorts format. For longer pieces you can generate a few clips and stitch them in your own editor, but each generation is meant to stand alone as a punchy Short.

What does it cost to make a Short?

You buy prepaid credits and the exact credit cost of a render is shown before you start it. Failed or blocked renders are never charged, so re-rolling a hook to get it right won't burn credits on a result you can't use.

Can I make a batch of different Shorts in one sitting?

Yes. Run a separate prompt for each idea and you'll get a distinct clip per generation, which is an easy way to bank several days of uploads in a single session.

Do I need filming or editing skills?

No. You describe the video in plain language and the clip is generated for you. There's no camera to set up and no timeline to edit — just download the finished vertical Short.

Spin up scroll-stopping YouTube Shorts in minutes

The Shorts shelf rewards a relentless upload cadence, but filming, cutting, and re-exporting a fresh vertical video every day burns out even disciplined creators. vfxmagia turns a single sentence into a finished 9:16 Short — a hooky opening frame, motion that holds the eye, and an export sized for the feed. Describe the clip you want, generate it, and walk away with a Short you can post the same hour.

Why it works

What you get

Built vertical-first at 9:16 so your Short fills the phone with no awkward bars or post-crop reframing.
Front-loaded motion and a strong opening beat designed to survive the first three seconds where most Shorts get swiped away.
Batch a week of distinct Shorts from a list of prompts instead of blocking out a full filming and editing day.
No camera, set, or timeline editing — type the idea, generate, and download a ready-to-upload clip.

How it works

Three steps

01Describe the Short you want — the hook, the subject, the vibe, and the on-screen action that should grab the scroll.
02Set the output to 9:16 vertical, choose a short Shorts-friendly length, and pick your quality tier.
03Generate, preview the clip, then download it for upload — or tweak the prompt and re-roll until the hook lands.

Get started

A prompt to start from

“Vertical 9:16 video. Fast push-in on a steaming mug of coffee on a sunlit wooden desk, soft morning light flaring through a window, gentle steam curling upward, a hand sliding a notebook into frame. Cozy, energetic morning mood, shallow depth of field, crisp colors, smooth slow-motion finish that lingers on the steam.”
