Pixverse Pixverse V5 Transition

Pixverse Pixverse V5 Transition

Playground

Try it on WaveSpeedAI!

Create smooth morph transitions between two static images into 5s or 8s videos at 360p, 540p, 720p, or 1080p. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing.

Features

PixVerse v5 Transition morphs one image into another with smooth, cinematic motion guided by a short prompt. Control aspect ratio, duration (5s / 8s), and resolution (360p–1080p) to fit storyboards, ads, and social posts.


✨ Highlights

  • Image-to-image transition with prompt-guided mood, lighting, and motion.
  • Multiple aspect ratios: 16:9, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 9:16.
  • Resolution choices: 360p, 540p, 720p, 1080p.

🧩 Parameters

  • prompt* (text) — Short description of vibe/motion (e.g., “Time-lapse build, dusk-to-night city lights, cinematic glow”).
  • image* (required) — Start frame (URL or upload).
  • end_image* (required) — End frame (URL or upload).
  • aspect_ratio16:9, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 9:16.
  • duration5 or 8 seconds.
  • resolution360p, 540p, 720p, 1080p.

🚀 How to Use

  1. Upload image (start) and end_image (target).
  2. Write a concise prompt describing transition mood, lighting, or timing.
  3. Pick aspect_ratio, duration, and resolution for your platform.
  4. (Optional) Select fast motion for snappier 5s transitions.
  5. Click Run to generate and download your clip.

🧠 Tips

  • Use start/end images with similar framing to reduce warping.
  • Keep prompts short—describe mood and timing rather than object changes.
  • For social platforms, match aspect_ratio to your target feed (16:9 landscape, 9:16 vertical).
  • Fast motion is best for punchy 5s reveals; use normal for smoother, more photographic transitions.
