Vidu Image-to-Video Q1
Vidu Image-to-Video Q1 is a high-quality image-to-video generation model that transforms static images into dynamic, cinematic 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: Adjust motion intensity with the movement_amplitude parameter for subtle or dramatic animations.
- Reproducibility: Use the seed parameter to recreate exact results or explore variations.
Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| prompt | Yes | Text description of desired motion and style. |
| image | Yes | Source image (upload or public URL). |
| movement_amplitude | No | Motion intensity: auto, or specific levels (default: auto). |
| seed | No | Set for reproducibility; leave empty for random. |
How to Use
- Upload your source image — drag and drop a file or paste a public URL.
- Write a prompt describing the motion, mood, and style you want. Use the Prompt Enhancer for AI-assisted optimization.
- Set movement amplitude — choose auto or adjust for subtle/dramatic motion.
- Set a seed (optional) for reproducible results.
- Click Run and wait for your video to generate.
- 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 "auto" for movement_amplitude to let the model choose appropriate motion intensity.
- For portraits, describe subtle movements like blinking, breathing, or hair movement for natural results.
- Fix the seed when iterating to compare the effect of different prompts.
Notes
- Ensure uploaded image URLs are publicly accessible.
- Processing time varies based on current queue load.
- Please ensure your prompts comply with content guidelines.
