Today, such often produced by professionals, which is time-, labour- and cost-intensive undertaking. In order produce contents support large applications e-commerce), the field of artificial intelligence (AI)-empowered persuasive video generation (AIPVG) has gained traction recent years. This interdisciplinary nature, makes it challenging new researchers grasp. Currently, there no comprehensive survey AIPVG available. this paper, we bridge gap reviewing key AI techniques that can be utilized automatically generate videos. We offer first-of-its-kind taxonomy divides into three major steps: 1) visual material understanding, extracts information from materials (VMs) relevant target promotion; 2) storyline generation, shortlists arranges high-quality VMs sequence compose with power; 3) post-production, involves background music still image animation enhance viewing experience. also introduce evaluation metrics datasets commonly adopted AIPVG. analyze advantages disadvantages existing works belonging above-mentioned steps, discuss interesting potential future research directions.
