Features

Vidu Q3 Image-to-Video is an advanced AI video generation model that brings static images to life. Upload a reference image and describe the motion you want — the model generates high-quality video with smooth animation, optional audio, and cinematic quality up to 1080p.

Why Choose This?

• Image-driven generation Transform any image into dynamic video with natural motion.

• High resolution output Generate videos in 540p, 720p, or 1080p quality.

• Flexible duration Create videos from 1 to 16 seconds in length.

• Audio generation Optional synchronized audio and background music.

• Motion control Adjust movement amplitude for subtle or dynamic animations.

• Prompt Enhancer Built-in tool to automatically improve your motion descriptions.

Parameters

How to Use

1. Upload your image — provide the reference image to animate.
2. Write your prompt — describe the motion, camera movement, and action.
3. Set resolution — higher resolution for better quality, lower for faster processing.
4. Adjust duration — set video length up to 16 seconds.
5. Configure audio (optional) — enable/disable audio generation and background music.
6. Set motion intensity (optional) — control how dynamic the movement is.
7. Run — submit and download your video.

Best Use Cases

• Photo Animation — Bring portraits, landscapes, and product images to life.
• Social Media Content — Create engaging video content from static images.
• Marketing & Ads — Generate dynamic promotional videos from product photos.
• Storytelling — Animate illustrations and artwork for narratives.
• Creative Projects — Explore motion concepts from reference images.

Pro Tips

• Use the Prompt Enhancer to refine your motion descriptions.
• Be specific about movement direction, speed, and camera angles.
• Set movement_amplitude to “small” for subtle, cinematic motion or “large” for dramatic action.
• Enable generate_audio for realistic sound effects matching the scene.
• Use high-quality source images for better video results.
• Describe environmental effects (wind, smoke, dust) for more immersive results.

Notes

• Both prompt and image are required fields.
• Maximum video duration is 16 seconds.
• Audio generation adds synchronized sound effects and ambient audio.
• BGM adds background music appropriate to the scene mood.
• Ensure uploaded image URLs are publicly accessible.
