10 Mistakes to Avoid When Creating AI-Generated Videos

AI video tools are changing the game for content creators. But as with any powerful technology, knowing how to use it well is the difference between average content and scroll-stopping video. If you're just getting started with AI video creation—or want to improve your results—this guide is for you.
Here are 10 common mistakes people make when using AI video generators, and how to avoid them.
1. Jumping In Without a Clear Message
Even the smartest AI needs direction. If you don’t start with a clear message or goal, the final video might look good but feel aimless.
Tip: Write a one-sentence summary of what you want your video to say before you begin.
2. Ignoring Platform Format Requirements
Each platform (TikTok, Reels, Shorts) has its own ideal length and pacing.
Tip: Always export in the correct format and tailor your content to fit the audience’s expectations.
3. Overcomplicating the Script
AI-generated scripts can do a lot, but simpler is often better. Rambling or overly complex scripts lose viewers fast.
Tip: Keep it tight, clear, and focused on a single idea.
4. Sticking to the Same Visual Style
Even good animations can start to feel repetitive if every video looks the same. While AI makes creation fast, variety still matters.
Tip: DoItOnG offers a wide range of built-in visual styles — and you can even create your own custom themes to match your brand, tone, or vibe.
5. Forgetting About the Hook
If the first 2 seconds don’t grab attention, the rest doesn’t matter. Too many AI videos start slow.
Tip: Start with an emotional, surprising, or curiosity-driven line.
6. Ignoring the Power of Voice
Voiceovers make a huge impact—but some creators skip them entirely, or settle for flat, synthetic voices.
Tip: Use a natural, expressive voice. DoItOnG gives you access to over 5,000 voice options in 32 languages, so your video sounds exactly how you want it to.
7. Failing to Edit or Review
AI saves time, but it’s not infallible. Letting the tool do 100% of the work without review is risky.
Tip: Always watch the preview. Make small edits to improve pacing or clarity.
8. Trying to Say Too Much in One Video
Cramming too many ideas into a 30-second video overwhelms the viewer and dilutes your message.
Tip: Stick to one goal per video. If you have more to say, create a series.
9. Not Testing Different Styles
AI tools like DoItOnG allow you to experiment with script, structure, and visuals—but many users stick to one formula.
Tip: Try different voice styles, themes, and hooks. You might discover what truly resonates.
10. Skipping Distribution
Even the best video won’t get views if it’s not seen. Some creators hit “download” and forget to promote.
Tip: Share your video across platforms, repost it, use trending hashtags, and monitor performance.
