Quick facts

• Modes:

  • Text → Video

  • Image → Video

  • Video → Video (Motion / Pose Transfer)

• Default clip length: 5s (supports 10s)

• Aspect ratios: 16:9 (default), 4:3, 1:1, 3:4

• Licensing: Trained only on fully licensed, high-resolution footage (no scraped or user-submitted data).

What it’s great for

• Short cinematic pieces and motion studies

• Turning still images into motion (image → video)

• Transferring motion or pose from reference videos to targets

Example outputs

Pose reference (input image)

5s cinematic clip (based on input reference image)

10s pose transfer film

Copy-and-paste prompts

A lone astronaut walking along a moonlit cliff, slow dolly in, cinematic lighting, film grain — 5s — 16:9

Marble statue by the sea slowly coming to life, subtle camera orbit, warm cinematic grade — 10s — 1:1

Close-up portrait, gentle breathing and head turn, handheld camera feel, soft rim light — 5s — 4:3

Motion transfer: apply running motion from reference video to a still image of a red bicycle in an empty city square — 5s — 16:9

Prompt tips

• Specify motion explicitly: e.g., “slow dolly in”, “camera orbit”, “subtle head turn”.

• Mention shot specifics when important: camera framing, lens feel, lighting, and duration.

• Use seed for repeatable variants or test different seeds to explore diversity.
