Make AI pictures and video

AI credit
Copy page ▾

The AI engine sees only the pictures and the words that you send, not your model. It can change details and proportions, so the result is labelled AI-styled. Do not take sizes from it. Each button shows the price before you start.

For the best result, make a photoreal render first: see Make pictures of your design. Without a render, KerfCraft sends the current view.

Restyle the view#

  1. Click Scene above the 3D view.
  2. Click Restyle with AI.
  3. Click a preset, for example Evening warm light, or type your own prompt.
  4. Click Restyle.

To add decor round your furniture, click a style next to Stage the room:, for example Scandinavian. The prompt tells the engine to keep your furniture as it is. Click Save PNG to download the result.

Try another material on some parts#

Only the parts that you select change. The rest of the picture stays the same.

  1. Select the parts in the 3D view.
  2. In Properties, click Try another material….
  3. Type the material, for example dark walnut veneer.
  4. Select an engine.
  5. Click Try it.

To make the result a finish on the model, click Make this a real finish (approx.). The finish takes the average colour of the result, so it is only close. It does not change the cut list.

Make a short video#

  1. Click Scene, then Video with AI.
  2. Type a prompt, for example the light and the mood.
  3. In the first list, select the picture to animate, or select doors opening.
  4. Select the camera move, the length and an engine.
  5. Click Make video.

A video takes a minute or two. With doors opening, KerfCraft renders your model closed and open, and the engine animates between them. The inside of the furniture in the video is then your real model. If the panel shows a Use … button, click it to change to an engine that can do this.

Make a prop from a photo#

A prop is an object for the picture, for example a tap, a lamp or a vase. It is never in the cut list.

  1. Select File ▸ Props….
  2. Click + Photo and select 1 to 4 photos of the object, or describe it in the box.
  3. Type its real size in W mm, D mm and H mm.
  4. Select an engine.
  5. Click Make prop.
  6. Click Place, then move the prop with the Move tool.

Your props stay in this browser and you can use them in every project. KerfCraft does not make props of people.

Ask the assistant#

You can ask the assistant for any of these, for example "make a video of the kitchen with the doors opening". It shows the price first, and makes nothing until you click Allow.
