Ray3 Modify is a video-editing AI made by Luma AI. It is designed for anyone who has a video they want to change but doesn't want to spend hours learning complicated editing software. Instead of just generating a brand-new video from scratch, this tool lets you take a video you already have and tweak specific parts of it using everyday text instructions.
What it does well
- Targeted changes: You can change just one object or area in the video. For example, you can swap a boring coffee mug on a desk for a glowing spaceship, and the rest of the room will stay exactly the same.
- Text-based editing: You don't need to cut, mask, or blend clips manually. You just type what you want to happen, and the AI handles the heavy lifting to make it look natural.
- Style swaps: It is good at changing the overall look or background of a scene while keeping the main subject's movements intact.
Worth knowing
- Because this tool was just announced, access might be limited at first as the company rolls it out to more users.
- Like all AI video tools, it is not perfect. Sometimes the edited elements might look a bit warped, or the lighting on the new object might not perfectly match the original video, so you might need to try a few times to get it exactly right.
