As for trying out Sora, it is currently unavailable to the public.
Although Sora was publicly announced, OpenAI mentions that it is still in the red-teaming phase, undergoing rigorous testing to prevent the generation of harmful or inappropriate content. Limited access is provided to a select group of visual artists, designers, and filmmakers for feedback on enhancing the model for creative professionals. This ensures that creative professionals can benefit from the technology rather than be replaced by it, a concern that will only be fully addressed once Sora is widely accessible and utilized by businesses.
If you are interested in seeing Sora in action through demos, OpenAI has shared several in their announcement. Additionally, CEO Sam Altman has been posting videos of prompts requested by users on X.
