OpenMagia puts local AI video generation on a timeline
An Apple Silicon video studio that combines local generation, directing, editing, character references, plugins, and export in one workspace.
Field notes
The displayed editor organizes a 12-second product-reveal sequence across video, overlay, and audio tracks, with controls for trimming, transitions, positioning, and export. Its scene workflow accepts a project style, references, Cast characters, and production skills before placing generated material into the timeline. The site says its Apple Silicon path uses a native Metal backend for MiniMax H3; CUDA and lower-memory support are described as future contributions rather than current verified capabilities.
