Features

Vidu Q3 Reference-to-Video

Vidu Q3 Reference-to-Video generates cinematic video guided by multiple reference images and a text prompt. Upload one or more reference images to establish character identity, style, or scene elements — the model produces a cohesive, motion-consistent video that blends all provided references into a new scene.

Why Choose This?

• Multi-image reference generation Upload multiple reference images to combine characters, styles, or visual elements from different sources into a single coherent video.

• Character-consistent output The model preserves the identity, appearance, and style of subjects from your reference images throughout the generated clip.

• Optional audio generation Enable generate_audio to produce synchronized ambient sound and atmosphere alongside the video.

• Flexible resolution options Generate at 480p, 720p, or 1080p to match your quality and budget requirements.

• Reproducible results Use the seed parameter to lock in a specific output for exact reproduction.

• Prompt Enhancer Built-in tool to automatically improve your scene descriptions for richer output.

Pro Tips

• Use clear, well-lit reference images with distinct subjects for the most accurate identity preservation.
• The more reference images you provide, the richer the model’s understanding of your intended style and characters.
• Disable generate_audio if you plan to add your own soundtrack in post-production.
• Fix the seed once you find a result you like to iterate consistently across resolution and duration changes.
• Use 480p to rapidly test your prompt and reference combination before committing to a higher-resolution render.

Notes
