Pros

“With renderforest I'm able to create awesome motion graphics and explainer videos for my clients that look like Netflix!”

Daniel R.

Founder

“Text to speech results in speech volume going up and down across different clips.”

Chris T.

Manager

“You can only click and extend or shorten a scene in second blocks.”

Chris T.

Manager

Pros

“A good portion of my videos are posted on YouTube and I continue to get copyright claims, on every video.”

Donald F.

Chief Executive Officer

“Most outstanding feature is the option to take a link on any article or blog post and Lume5 will rewrite the script and create a video on the article with ease.”

Denise T.

Affiliate Marketer and Content Creator

“The AI generation does a lot better, manually searching media finds you nothing useful.”

Donald F.

Chief Executive Officer

Cons

“Again, it appears the only way is to put it in filmora, premier or other software, thus defeating the purpose a bit.”

Chris T.

Manager

“I dislike the watermark when you use the preview version of your work but I understand it's the free version”

Daniel R.

Founder

“The only problem I encountered using Renderforest was related to the music I added from their library, which in some countries is not free. But this is not directly related to them.”

Simona G.

Teacher

Cons

“I couldn't seem to be able to customize or add captions on certain templates.”

Denise T.

Affiliate Marketer and Content Creator

“I think the text-to-video only work for generic clips, videos with "purpose" don't come very well, images choosen by the AI are to generic, and if I have to edit it myself I prefer using cupcat or canva.”
