Provide a starting image: Pass a publicly accessible URL via image_url. This is your first frame.
Write a motion prompt: Describe how the subject and camera should move — direction, pacing, lighting changes, and any new elements.
Pick resolution and aspect ratio: Match the aspect ratio to your source image where possible. 1080p delivers the highest fidelity; 720p is the recommended default.
Set duration: Choose any value between 1 and 16 seconds (default 5).
Submit: Async endpoint — poll /api/v1/predictions/{request_id}/result or use a webhook_url.
Frequently asked
Provide a publicly accessible image URL. Output aspect ratio supports 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4, and 1:1 — match your source image where possible to avoid cropping.
Q3 Pro is tuned to preserve character identity, lighting, and composition from the source image while still introducing natural motion.
5 seconds is a strong default. Use shorter clips (1–4s) for rapid iteration and longer clips (8–16s) when narrative arc matters.
