Silkpunk AI Videos

Create nowExplore video library

Build a world of living machines in your browser with Morphic's silkpunk AI video generator. Generate a bamboo-ribbed airship that breathes like a fish bladder, a paper-and-silk automaton folding open in a workshop, or a coral-hulled junk crossing a Pacific dawn, then score the voyage with Music and stitch the sequence in the Canvas. Pair it with the Speech tool to voice the engineer-poet at the helm.

Silkpunk characters you can create

Bamboo-ribbed airship breathing over a misty river delta at dawnTry now

Silkpunk scenes you can direct

Bamboo airship lifts from a river delta

A great paper-and-bamboo dirigible, its silk gasbags swelling and shrinking like a breathing fish bladder, rises through mist over a delta of stilt houses, silk pennants streaming, slow ascending crane shot at dawn.

Edit prompt

Automaton folds open in a workshop

Tight shot in a sunlit timber workshop as a bird-shaped automaton of bamboo, paper, and ox-sinew unfolds its silk wings with a ripple of struts, dust motes in the light, the artisan watching, gentle push-in.

Edit prompt

Coral war junk crosses a Pacific dawn

A coral-hulled junk under stretched-silk sails cuts across open sea at sunrise, feathered banners snapping, the silk-armour warrior braced at the prow, wide tracking shot from a following wave height.

Edit prompt

Pagoda observatory under the stars

Night terrace atop a tiered pagoda where the astronomer sights through a brass-and-bamboo telescope on a turning paper armillary, lantern light pooling on lacquered scrolls, slow orbit around the instrument.

FAQs

What is silkpunk?
Silkpunk is a speculative-fiction aesthetic, coined by author Ken Liu, that imagines technology built from organic East Asian and Pacific materials rather than steampunk's chrome and steam. Its visual hallmarks are machines made of bamboo, paper, silk, coral, and ox-sinew, biomimetic motion that imitates animals such as airships that breathe like fish bladders, and settings of pagodas, river deltas, and coral junks.
How do I make silkpunk videos with AI?
Make silkpunk videos in your browser on Morphic with the Text to Video tool. Describe the organic machine, the material it is built from, the biomimetic motion, and the camera move, and Morphic generates the clip. Add a soundtrack with the Music tool and narration with the Speech tool, then assemble the sequence in the Canvas. No installs or specialist software needed.
How do I write a good silkpunk video prompt?
Name the organic material, the structure it forms, and the living animal motion it imitates, then add the setting. For example: "a paper-and-bamboo dirigible with silk gasbags that swell and shrink like a breathing fish bladder rises through delta mist at dawn, slow ascending crane shot." Naming the organic build and the biomimetic movement is what separates silkpunk from metal-and-gear machinery.
What silkpunk scenes work best for AI video?
Silkpunk scenes that showcase one organic machine in motion work best, such as a bamboo airship breathing as it lifts from a river delta, a bird-shaped automaton folding open its silk wings in a workshop, a coral-hulled war junk crossing a Pacific dawn, and a pagoda observatory turning its brass-and-bamboo telescope under the stars. Each gives Morphic one biomimetic motion to anchor the clip.
How do I keep characters consistent across silkpunk scenes?
Use the Character Lineup workflow to lock the indigo hemp robes, the lacquered bamboo-scale armour, and each figure's signature tool or instrument, then reference those character cards in every prompt. Morphic preserves the engineer-poet, the airship navigator, and the automaton artisan across the workshop, the deck, and the observatory so the continuity holds.
Can I add music and narration to my silkpunk videos?
Yes. The Music tool produces an original soundtrack, and a register of pipa, flute, and soft percussion sits cleanly under a rising airship or a workshop reveal. The Speech tool generates narration for the engineer-poet or the astronomer in the voice you choose, layered onto the generated video to publish a complete silkpunk short.
What is the best AI video generator for silkpunk videos?
Morphic is one of the best AI video generators for silkpunk videos. It runs in your browser: describe a scene in plain language and the Text to Video tool generates the silkpunk clip, the Character Lineup workflow keeps your cast consistent across shots, and the Music and Speech tools add an original score and narration. You can direct, refine, and assemble a full silkpunk video on a single canvas with no installs.
