Pro Tips
- Use a high-quality, well-lit reference image with a clearly visible subject for the most natural animation.
- Include specific camera style references in your prompt (handheld, dolly, cinematic lighting) for more expressive results.
- Use 256p at shorter durations to rapidly test prompts before committing to a 1080p final render.
- Providing an audio track significantly improves rhythm and pacing alignment in the output.
- Fix the seed once you find a result you like to iterate on it consistently.
Notes
- Both image and prompt are required fields; all other parameters are optional.
- Duration is selectable in 1-second increments from 5 to 10 seconds.
- Ensure image and audio URLs are publicly accessible if using links rather than direct uploads.
