I Tried Ourdream Video Generator for 1 Month

Using Ourdream’s video generator is something like jumping into a slightly weird creative playground: ideas that start out on paper start to move and take shape.

You enter an idea, sometimes loose and vague, other times very specific. And Ourdream will try and deliver a short animation that matches that idea.

And then you start to play around with it and adjust it. It’s kind of weird, but that’s where the magic lies. You get so lost in tweaking and adjusting the same prompt that you’re almost obsessed about getting the “right one.”

How to create AI videos with this video generator: a comprehensive user guide

As you can tell from the screenshots, the app has a very straightforward 4-step process:

• Step 1: Change the app to Video Mode
• Step 2: Add the video elements
• Step 3: Click Generate Video
• Step 4: Sign up to receive and save the generated video

The UI is better than I anticipated. The app uses a dark interface, large tiles for selecting video components, and clearly visible buttons. There’s no confusion. This is a good sign.

Quick workflow overview

Step 1: Switch to Video Mode

The first screenshot depicts the generator’s landing page.

Towards the top, underneath the text “NSFW AI Image Generator & Video Creator” there are three clickable options:

• Image
• Video
• Mode Presets

A black arrow is pointing towards the word video. This is telling you to first click on that option.

What this does

It seems like the generator offers the capability to either generate static images, or video. In order to generate something with motion, it’s important to make sure that Video mode is enabled.

How to do it

• Open the generator page
• At the top, you should see three options.
• Click on the “Video” option.
• This should turn the video tab black to indicate that it is enabled.

This could be the source of you not generating a video, if you just left this on the default setting. You will get stuck generating images, which could put a damper on your expectations.

Step 2: Set Up Your Video

The following steps detail how to set up the configuration of your video. The first screenshot below shows you an example of an empty configuration, and the second example shows you what the configuration is like after you’ve made a selection.

This is what you’ll see on the empty setup screen

There are 5 major tiles or areas:

• Select character (required)
• Action (required)
• Background (optional)
• Outfit (optional)
• Custom prompt (premium feature)

Then, there is also:

• Advanced settings
• Select a character first (pink button at the bottom)

The pink button is basically a tool telling you: “Nice try, but please start at the top.”

Details regarding every single feature:

1. Select character (required)

This is the very first required tile at the left.

What it is used for

Here is where you will select the primary person or companion that is going to be included in your video.

What its relevance is

You see, without a character, the tool won’t be able to make a video, which is why that bottom button is initially disabled.

In the filled example

The screenshot in step 2 contains a character, which is: Viktoria Petrova. The empty tile is then substituted with a thumbnail card that has the name of the character.

2. Action (required) This is the second required tile and sits on the right side of the top row.

What it does It describes what the character is doing in the video.

Why it matters This action is the central element of the video animation concept.

In the filled example The action tile reads Custom This implies you can choose from preset options or specify your own.

3. Background (optional) This tile is positioned on the bottom left.

What it does Choose the environment behind your character.

Why it matters It gives the scene context and atmosphere.

In the filled example The background selection is Hotel This suggests the tool offers location presets.

4. Outfit (optional) This tile sits in the lower right.

What it does Specify what the character is wearing.

Why it matters This impacts the visual presentation of the character.

In the filled example The outfit picked is Lingerie When selected, the Outfit tile becomes a preview image.

5. Custom Prompt (premium feature) This is a large text field below the 4 tiles.

What it does Type additional instructions to refine the result.

Why it matters You can use this to cover the fine details the preset options don’t account for.

In the filled example The prompt says Dancing The user has supplied an additional prompt beyond the tile choices.

Note

Custom Prompt is labeled as a premium feature:

• It might not be free to use
• Or it may be a feature that requires credits or a subscription

6. Advanced Settings

Right under where you type your custom prompt, there’s a section called Advanced Settings. You might also notice a tiny gear icon in the second image’s upper right corner.

Why you’d use it

I’m guessing this just unlocks more tweaking options for people who really want to fine-tune their results.

How it’s helpful

The screenshots don’t actually show what happens when you click it, so I can’t say for sure that it will have more generation choices in a pop-up panel.

If you’re just starting out though, you can probably just skip this the first time.

7. Mode Presets

Along the top edge of where you select different modes you’ll see Mode Presets.

Why you’d use it

I’m guessing this is going to quickly apply some pre-made or recommended groupings.

How it’s helpful

The screenshots don’t show it in action either, but maybe it will be useful when you don’t feel like selecting everything one by one and want something to just pop up quickly.

Step 3: Hit the Generate Video button

Once all your fields are completed, the button at the bottom updates.

As seen in the second screenshot, the button reads:

Generate Video (with a tiny “100” badge)

And there’s a huge arrow pointing right at it.

Why these matters

The app knows it has all the details needed to generate the content.

What the “100” probably indicates

This number likely stands for:

• Credits
• Tokens
• Generation cost

This isn’t just a design choice. It probably means you’ll see how expensive the video will be to make.

Action Items:

• Ensure the correct character is selected
• Check that you’ve picked the right movement
• Review background and outfit choices if you customized them
• Take a look at your custom prompt (if you wrote one)
• Press Generate Video

Example setup shown in the screenshots

Step 4: Sign Up to Reveal Your Result

In the third screenshot, when you hit the Generate Video button, the UI presents an overlay pop-up.

This suggests that you can go ahead and compose the video initially, but you must create an account before it actually generates.

The Sign Up Pop Up Window Contents

The pop-up reads:

SIGN UP FOR FREE 1,000,000+ AI companions are waiting for you

And presents two main CTA buttons:

• Continue with Google
• Continue with email

The UI also shows a few feature icons, like:

• Roleplay Chat
• Voice Calls
• Video Generation
• Custom Images

It also includes a disclaimer at the bottom that requires you to:

• be 18 or over
• agree to its Terms and Conditions

How Each Sign Up Method Works

1. Continue with Google This is your fastest option if you want instant, one-click entry.

2. Continue with email Use this method if you want to sign up the old fashioned way.

Why you need to Sign Up at this Point

The site appears to utilize a “test out, then sign up” funnel.

This means you:

• get access to the UI for the video creator first
• before being asked to complete the sign-up process

To be fair, this is very standard procedure. Make people care, then get them to sign up.

Complete start-to-finish guide

Step 1

Tap Video at the top.

Step 2

Build the scene:

• select a Character
• select an Action
• select a Background (optional)
• select an Outfit (optional)
• Custom Prompt (optional)

Step 3

Tap Generate Video.

Step 4

Sign up using

Continue with Google or Continue with email

Now the app should move on to the generation phase and produce the final video.

First time user tips

Get through the compulsory boxes first

Don’t try to check every box. Start with:

Character Action

Then worry about optional ones.

Use optional boxes for fine-tuning

Background and Outfit are there to refine the picture. They help polish but aren’t critical.

Think of Custom Prompt as an extra detail

Use it for small adjustments, not for replacing everything you’ve chosen so far.

Guard your credits

That 100 credits may be important. Review your settings before you hit the button to ensure you get what you want.

Set aside Advanced Settings for now

If this is your first time, keep it basic. You don’t need the advanced features right away.

Final thoughts

The way this generator is set up is actually kind of clever:

• choose the medium
• craft the scene
• create video
• sign up to access

What’s great about this UI is that it’s divided into segments rather than throwing one messy prompt block into the input field and hoping for good results. You’re creating the video step by step. Most video-generation tools will benefit from this sort of UI.
