Synthwave AI Videos

Create nowExplore video library

Race into retro-futurism in your browser with Morphic's synthwave AI video generator. Generate synthwave scenes like an outrun highway under a gradient sunset, a wireframe grid horizon, or a rooftop saxophone solo at dusk, and pair them with the Speech and Music tools to voice and score every shot. Stitch the chrome-and-gradient footage into a full synthwave short on the Canvas.

A gridded sunset horizon

A wireframe grid landscape under a gradient dusk sky, distant mountains, a slow majestic push.

Edit prompt

A rooftop saxophone solo

A silhouetted player on a rooftop at gradient dusk, warm backlight haze, a slow orbit.

Edit prompt

A chrome-skyline glide

A retro skyline at gradient sunset, chrome highlights on the towers, a sweeping aerial glide.

FAQs

Where can I make synthwave videos with AI?
You can create synthwave scenes directly in your browser on Morphic. Open the Text to Video tool, describe the subject and the retro-futurist motifs, and Morphic renders the clip. No editing suite needed.
What gives a video the synthwave look?
Gradient sunset skies, wireframe grid horizons, chrome surfaces, and outrun cars. Name these motifs in the prompt so the 80s retro-futurist mood reads clearly.
What scenes work best in a synthwave style?
Bold, motion-driven moments: an outrun highway, a gridded sunset horizon, a rooftop solo, a chrome skyline glide. Anchor each scene to one motif and the gradient palette.
How do I keep a character consistent across synthwave scenes?
Use the Character Lineup workflow to lock the design and palette, then reference that card in every prompt so the subject carries across a connected synthwave sequence.
Is synthwave the same as vaporwave?
They overlap but differ. Synthwave is bold retro-futurism with grid roads and gradient sunsets, while vaporwave is softer and dreamier with pastel marble busts and chrome. Say "synthwave" to steer toward the outrun energy.
Can I add narration and music to my synthwave videos?
Yes. The Speech tool generates voiceover and the Music tool produces a retro-synth score. Layer both to finish a complete synthwave short.
