Image-to-Video
Build more consistent motion from an initial image, style references, or first-last frame transitions.
Image-to-Video extends existing image assets into video. It supports multiple input patterns — animated initial image, reference-image guidance, and first-last frame transitions — while automatically enforcing compatibility rules around duration and format.
When To Use
Use this page when you already have strong image assets and want to turn them into video without starting from a blank script.
It is useful for converting static creatives into motion tests and for reusing existing image libraries more efficiently.
Workflow
Choose the image-driven method first, then add prompt and parameters. That usually works better than loading every possible input at once.

Step 1: Upload the Initial Image and Decide Whether You Need References or a Last Frame
The initial image is the base input. Add reference images if you need style guidance, or add a last frame if the transition itself matters.

Step 2: Write the Prompt and Set Model, Duration, and Aspect Ratio
The page automatically adjusts or constrains some settings when reference images or a last frame are present so you do not submit incompatible combinations.

Step 3: Review and Filter Results in the Gallery
Completed videos appear in the gallery, where you can download, edit again, delete, and compare different input combinations.
Rules and Limits
The most important part of this page is understanding which input combinations can coexist.
- Reference-image mode forces some duration conditions
- First-last frame mode restricts specific aspect-ratio and duration combinations
- Reference image count and total file size are capped
- The page adjusts conflicting settings or warns before you submit
Best Practices
Decide whether your main goal is motion, style consistency, or scene transition before choosing the input pattern.
Image-driven video tasks become unstable quickly when too many references and too many instructions are combined in one run.
- Use a clean initial image with a clear subject
- Reference images are best for style control, not for replacing the whole narrative
- First-last frame is excellent for deliberate transitions, not for solving every motion need
