Wan 2.1 Text-to-Video 480p

Generate dynamic videos from text descriptions with Wan 2.1 Text-to-Video 480p. This efficient model transforms your written prompts into smooth, visually appealing 480p videos — perfect for quick iterations, social content, and cost-effective video generation at scale.

Why It Stands Out

  • Pure text-to-video generation: No source image needed — simply describe your scene and watch it come to life.
  • Fast and affordable: Optimized for speed and cost efficiency while maintaining strong visual quality.
  • Prompt Enhancer: Built-in AI-powered prompt optimization helps you craft better descriptions for improved results.
  • Negative prompt support: Exclude unwanted elements for cleaner, more controlled outputs.
  • Flexible duration: Generate 5-second or 10-second clips depending on your needs.
  • Reproducibility: Use the seed parameter to recreate exact results or iterate on variations.

Parameters

ParameterRequiredDescription
promptYesText description of the video you want to generate.
negative_promptNoElements to avoid in the generated video.
sizeNoOutput resolution (default: 832×480).
num_inference_stepsNoQuality/speed trade-off (default: 30).
durationNoVideo length in seconds: 5 or 10 (default: 5).
guidance_scaleNoPrompt adherence strength (default: 5).
flow_shiftNoMotion intensity control (default: 3).
seedNoSet for reproducibility; -1 for random.

How to Use

  1. Write a prompt describing the scene, action, and style you want. Use the Prompt Enhancer for AI-assisted optimization.
  2. Set parameters — adjust size, duration, guidance scale, and other settings as needed.
  3. Add a negative prompt (optional) to exclude unwanted elements.
  4. Click Run and wait for your video to generate.
  5. Preview and download the result.

Best Use Cases

  • Social Media Content — Create quick, engaging video clips for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts.
  • Rapid Prototyping — Test video concepts quickly before committing to higher resolutions.
  • Marketing Previews — Generate draft videos for client approval at low cost.
  • Content at Scale — Produce high volumes of video content affordably.
  • Creative Exploration — Experiment with different prompts and styles without breaking the budget.

Pro Tips for Best Quality

  • Be specific in your prompt — describe subject, action, environment, lighting, and camera movement.
  • Use negative prompts to reduce common artifacts: blur, distortion, jitter, or watermarks.
  • Start with lower inference steps for quick previews, then increase for final renders.
  • Fix the seed when iterating to isolate the effect of parameter changes.
  • Use 480p for drafts and testing, then upgrade to 720p for final delivery if needed.

Notes

  • Processing time varies based on duration and current queue load.
  • Please ensure your prompts comply with content guidelines.
