Melies

Melies is an AI filmmaking platform from the French company YUKI CAPITAL. Its terms say it provides filmmaking tools for developing ideas, scripts, characters, images, video, audio, storyboards, edits and exports. The site also has a Cinematic Techniques guide, which its description says covers camera movement, lighting, composition, lenses, editing and more, each with examples, explanations and copy-paste prompts. From script to finished cut, every stage happens on one platform.

Who it's for:creators who want to make short films with AI and learn how films are shot along the way.

Before you start: the terms require users to be at least 18. Generating content needs an account and credits; subscriptions renew automatically and extra credits can be bought, so check the site for prices. The terms say your prompts, scripts, uploads, faces and voices are sent as needed to providers such as fal.ai, Replicate, OpenAI, Anthropic, Runway and ElevenLabs; YUKI says it won't use your private content to train its own models or for marketing without separate permission; that promise covers YUKI only, and each provider has its own terms. You can ask to delete your account in the product, though billing, security, backup and legal records may be kept. The site is in English.
