One Compelling Question
Give the audience a situation they can understand before asking them to care about a reveal. A clear mystery is stronger than a string of unrelated dramatic images.
AI Movie Trailer Maker
The AI Movie Trailer Maker turns a premise, selected story beats and creative direction into a movie teaser. The Pexo AI video agent plans the opening hook, scene progression and sound around what you want to reveal—and what should stay hidden.
Add the genre, audience, important characters and spoiler limits. You can provide visual references when you continue in Pexo.

THE LAST SIGNAL
The story, not the whole plot
Build Curiosity Without Giving Away the Ending
A movie trailer introduces a world, a conflict and a reason to keep watching. It does not need to retell every scene. Start with the one question you want the audience to leave with, then identify the moments that make that question matter.
For an original concept, the trailer can use generated scenes rather than footage from a finished film. Pexo uses your brief to coordinate shot direction and pacing. Treat the result as a creative interpretation, and check whether it still represents the story you intend to tell.
A concept teaser should not imply that invented scenes are footage from a released movie. Keep project titles, release information and any claims about the production accurate before sharing it.
A Reason to Keep Watching
Identify what the central character could lose. Choose beats that raise that pressure without explaining how the conflict is resolved.
An Unresolved Ending
Mark the twist, identity or final outcome that must stay out of the teaser. Review dialogue and background details as well as the main action for accidental spoilers.
From premise to teaser
Shape a Movie Teaser in 3 Steps
Provide the story boundaries, direct the moments that build tension, and review how the trailer invites viewers into the film.
Share the Premise and Spoiler Limits
Describe the protagonist, setting, conflict and genre. Separate what viewers may learn from what must remain hidden. If you have a script, paste the relevant text and identify any dialogue that needs to stay exact.
Direct the Trailer Beats
Tell the Agent which discovery, confrontation or image should anchor the teaser. Add camera, lighting and sound direction where it matters. Ask for a quieter opening or a later reveal instead of requesting more intensity everywhere.

Review the Reveal and Final Cut
Watch once for story clarity and again for individual shots. Check character appearance, locations, dialogue and the final unresolved moment. Request changes to specific beats so a revision does not unintentionally expose the ending.

Questions answered
AI Movie Trailer Maker FAQ
Can I make a trailer before filming the movie?
Yes. Start with an original premise and describe the scenes you want to suggest. Generated shots can communicate a concept, but they are not evidence of a completed production. Label a concept or pitch trailer appropriately when sharing it.
How do I keep the trailer from spoiling the ending?
List the information that must remain hidden before generation. Be specific: a character’s identity, a final location or the outcome of a confrontation. Review the pictures and dialogue together; a background detail can reveal more than the narration.
Can the trailer follow my existing script?
Provide the relevant script text and mark the lines or events that should guide the teaser. A trailer can rearrange selected beats to build curiosity, so explain which story order matters and which material must not appear.
Will characters look identical across every shot?
Do not assume perfect continuity. Supply useful visual references and review faces, clothing, props and locations across the sequence. Identify the exact mismatch when requesting a revision rather than asking for the entire trailer to be regenerated without direction.
Can I change the pacing without changing the premise?
Yes. Describe the pacing change at the beat level, such as holding the first discovery longer or delaying a reveal. Repeat the story details that must remain intact so the revision stays focused on timing and presentation.
