A Neural Frames alternative for music videos where the singer sings
Neural Frames and Reelody both turn one song into a storyboarded music video. The difference is lip-sync: Reelody syncs every line you choose, including wide shots and duets, from one MP3 or WAV.
Free demo of your own song. No credit card.
The short answer
Neural Frames calls itself “the synthesizer for the visual world”: its strength is audio-reactive visuals and fine control, frame by frame. Its Autopilot also writes a storyboard from your song and keeps up to three characters consistent, and it adds lip-sync “on the clips where it works best”.
Reelody is built the other way round, around a performance: you decide which lines are sung on screen, and the singer is synced in those scenes whether the shot is a close-up or a wide frame with the face small in it.

| Lip-sync | The singer’s mouth matches the words (lip-sync) on every line you choose, in close-ups, wide shots and duets; a dial sets choruses, verses or every line | "Vocal Video" lip-sync; Autopilot applies it "on the clips where it works best" |

When Neural Frames is the better choice
If you want abstract, audio-reactive visuals that pulse with the stems of your track, 4K output, or frame-level control over every moment, Neural Frames is built for exactly that. Its unused credits also roll over (up to three times the monthly amount while subscribed), and it says failed generations never cost credits.
When Reelody is the better choice
If the video is a performance, with a singer who has to sing the song, Reelody is the closer fit: lip-sync is planned across the whole song instead of placed where it happens to work, it holds in wide and group shots, and duets give each singer their own lines. You can be the singer yourself from your own photo. See how the lip-sync works.
