Frequently asked
Grok Imagine creates short, cinematic videos (approximately 6 seconds long) that showcase smooth motion, expressive lighting, and ambient audio based on your text prompts.
Select an aspect ratio (such as 1:1, 16:9, etc.) that fits your project's display requirements. The mode (`fun`, `normal`, or `spicy`) influences the creative style; for example, 'spicy' adds a dramatic flair while 'normal' maintains a balanced output. Note that when using external image inputs, the mode will default to 'normal'.
