Create 3D Video without any 3D knowledge | Luma Ai tutorial
TLDRThis tutorial guides you through creating a 3D photorealistic render from a video with no 3D knowledge required. The process involves capturing footage from various angles, uploading to lumalabs.ai, customizing animations, and rendering the final video. The steps are simple: record a video, upload it, animate with keyframes, and render your 3D creation. The result is a professional-looking 3D video, easy to achieve even for beginners.
Takeaways
- 📱 Capture footage in three rounds: eye-level circle, top angle circle, and lower angle circle to ensure maximum 3D coverage.
- 🌐 Upload the recorded video to lumalabs.ai using the field editor or the IOS app, and ensure privacy settings are set to private.
- 🔍 After uploading, refresh the page to access the 3D render, which will improve in clarity after finalizing animation and render.
- 🎥 Use the camera and diamond buttons to customize the animation, avoiding the use of inbuilt animations for a more personalized result.
- 🔧 Adjust the focal length, select keyframes for zooming in and out, and orient the animation as desired for a dynamic 3D effect.
- 🎨 Animate freely within the platform, with no limits to creativity until you are satisfied with the result.
- 📹 Once the animation is finalized, click 'Render video' and choose the desired format for the final output.
- 🖼️ Add a background to fill in any black areas in the render before hitting 'render' to start the process.
- ⏱️ Wait for the render to complete, which may take a few minutes depending on the system's processing speed.
- 📁 Download the final 3D render once it's ready, and review the outcome of the project.

Q & A
What is the main goal of the Luma Ai tutorial?
-The main goal of the Luma Ai tutorial is to teach how to create a 3D photorealistic render from a video without any 3D knowledge.
How many steps are involved in the process described in the tutorial?
-The process involves four steps: capture, upload, animate, and render.
What is the first step in creating a 3D render as described in the tutorial?
-The first step is to capture the video by recording a circle at the eye level of the object, then from a top angle, and finally from a lower angle to ensure maximum coverage for the 3D render.
How should one ensure there is very less motion blur while capturing the video?
-One should ensure very little motion blur by making smooth, steady movements while capturing the video, especially during the top angle circle.
What is the purpose of the second step in the Luma Ai tutorial?
-The second step is to upload the captured footage to lumalabs.ai using the field editor or the IOS app, and to sign in with a Google account.
What should be the privacy setting for the uploaded video according to the tutorial?
-According to the tutorial, the privacy setting for the uploaded video should be set to 'private'.
How does the tutorial suggest customizing the animation for the 3D render?
-The tutorial suggests customizing the animation by changing the focal length, selecting starting frames for zooming in and out, and adding keyframes for different points in the animation.
What is the recommended focal length for the custom animation as mentioned in the tutorial?
-The tutorial recommends using a focal length of 50mm for the custom animation.
What should one do after finalizing the animation to proceed with the 3D render?
-After finalizing the animation, one should click on 'Render video', select the desired format, add a background for black areas, and then hit 'render'.
How long does it typically take for the 3D render to be completed after hitting 'render'?
-The time it takes for the 3D render to be completed depends on the network speed and the complexity of the render, but the tutorial suggests waiting for a few minutes.
What is the final step after the 3D render is completed?
-The final step is to download the completed 3D render and review the result.

📱 Capturing 3D Render Footage
The script introduces the process of creating a 3D photorealistic render from a video, starting with the capture phase. It instructs the user to record video footage using a phone, beginning with a circular motion at the object's eye level, followed by a top angle to ensure minimal motion blur, and finally a lower angle for comprehensive coverage. The purpose of these steps is to gather footage from various angles to facilitate a 3D render.
🌐 Uploading Footage to Lumalabs.ai
After capturing the footage, the script moves on to the upload phase. It guides the user to visit lumalabs.ai, sign in using a Google account, and use the field editor to upload the video. The user is advised to provide a title, select the camera type as 'normal', and set the privacy to 'private'. The upload time depends on the network speed, and additional information on how to capture and upload footage can be found through a provided link.
🎨 Animating the 3D Render
The next step outlined in the script is animating the 3D render. The user is directed to click on the camera button and the diamond button to select a background, opting for a custom animation rather than the built-in options. The focal length is adjusted to 50mm, and keyframes are added for zooming in and out, as well as for orientation adjustments. The user is encouraged to experiment with different animations until satisfied with the result.
🖥 Rendering and Downloading the Final Video
Once the animation is finalized, the script describes the process of rendering the video. The user selects the desired format for the video and adds a background for any black areas. After initiating the render, the user must wait for the process to complete. Upon completion, the user can download the rendered video, which is expected to be clearer and more polished than the initial 3D render.
