Image to video starts where a text prompt leaves off: you already have the picture. Upload it, write what moves and what the camera does, and the model renders a short clip that opens on your image. Faces, products and colors stay as you made them, because the model only has to invent the motion.Good starting points are a product shot, a portrait, a landscape or a still from the AI image generator. For a clip from words alone, use the AI video generator.
What people make with it
- Product shots that turn, pour or open
- Portraits with a glance, a smile or wind in the hair
- Travel and landscape stills with moving water and sky
- Moving posts and covers from AI images

How to use Image to Video
Three steps from an idea to a finished result.
- 11. Upload the picture the clip should open on
- 22. Write the motion: what moves, how fast, and what the camera does
- 33. Pick a model and a length, check the credits on the button, and generate
Tips for better results
- Spend your words on movement. Describing what is already in the picture can make the model redraw it.
- Ask for one or two motions per clip, such as "the dog's ears flap as it runs, the camera tracks alongside". A long list of actions tends to warp hands and faces.
- Name the camera: "locked-off shot", "slow orbit to the left", "dolly back to reveal the room".
- Match the photo to the clip shape you want: a tall picture for 9:16 Reels and Shorts, a wide one for 16:9.
- Test the motion on Veo 3.1 Lite at 4 seconds, then render the version you keep on Kling 3.0 Pro or Veo 3.1 Fast.
