Dream Machine is Luma AI's app for turning text prompts into images and short animated videos; Luma's newer app is built around AI agents.
In plain words
In Dream Machine you organise work on boards. You type a description, get a small batch of images, and animate the ones you like into video. Developers could reach the same image and video generation through an API. Luma's newer agents app goes further: you describe a whole project in plain language, and agents choose among Luma's own models and other companies' models for images, video and audio.
A quick example
Imagine a small shop launching a new mug. The owner uploads product photos and writes one brief asking for hero images and a short video ad. The agents plan the work and generate the pieces, and the owner asks for changes in plain words, such as warmer lighting.
Where you'll meet it
- Turning still images into short animated clips.
- Campaigns, storyboards and social video ads made from one brief.
