Features

Vidu Image-to-Video

Vidu Image-to-Video is a fast and affordable image-to-video generation model that transforms static images into dynamic, animated videos. Simply provide an image and describe the motion you want — the model brings your photo to life with smooth, natural animation.

Why It Stands Out

• Image-driven generation: Start from any image and animate it into a coherent video while preserving the original style.
• Prompt-guided motion: Describe the action, camera movement, or atmosphere you want and watch your vision unfold.
• Prompt Enhancer: Built-in AI-powered prompt optimization helps craft better descriptions for improved results.
• Movement control: Choose from auto, small, medium, or large motion intensity for precise animation control.
• Affordable pricing: High-quality results at a budget-friendly price point.
• Reproducibility: Use the seed parameter to recreate exact results or explore variations.

Parameters

How to Use

1. Upload your source image — drag and drop a file or paste a public URL.
2. Write a prompt describing the motion, mood, and style you want. Use the Prompt Enhancer for AI-assisted optimization.
3. Set movement amplitude — choose auto, small, medium, or large based on desired motion intensity.
4. Set a seed (optional) for reproducible results.
5. Click Run and wait for your video to generate.
6. Preview and download the result.

Best Use Cases

• Social Media Content — Turn photos into engaging video posts for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts.
• Marketing & Advertising — Animate product images and hero shots without expensive video production.
• Storytelling & Art — Bring illustrations, portraits, and artwork to life.
• E-commerce — Create dynamic product showcases from static photography.
• Personal Projects — Animate family photos, travel shots, or creative artwork.

Pro Tips for Best Quality

• Use high-resolution, well-lit source images for optimal results.
• Be specific in your prompt — describe camera movement, subject actions, and atmospheric details.
• Use “small” amplitude for subtle movements like breathing or blinking.
• Use “large” amplitude for dramatic motion like running or dancing.
• For portraits, describe natural movements like hair flowing or expressions changing.
• Fix the seed when iterating to compare the effect of different parameters.

Notes

• Ensure uploaded image URLs are publicly accessible.
• Processing time varies based on current queue load.
