A clearer brief, a more deliberate first take

Image to Video AI built around your reference · Flow AI Video

Your reference gives the shot a starting point. Use a focused motion brief to explain what should change and what should stay recognizable.

01

Start with movement the scene already suggests

Leaves and shifting shadows suggest a gentle outdoor shot. Describe a breeze or a slow camera move instead of changing the whole scene.

    Give a portrait a small, natural action

    Try a slight head turn or a change in gaze. Review facial details and hair movement before using the clip.

      Carry an illustration into motion

      Describe how the subject moves while keeping the color palette and mood explicit. Compare the result with your reference.

        Let the camera explore an interior

        Ask for a slow push toward the focal point of the room. Check furniture edges and perspective as the shot moves.

            Which image works best as a reference?+

            Use a clear image with the main subject visible. Avoid heavy blur or a subject hidden behind other objects.

            Will every detail stay unchanged?+

            Generated motion can change details. Compare faces, text, product shapes, and backgrounds with the reference before using the result.

            Can I use an illustration?+

            You can upload an illustration as a reference. Describe the motion and style you want to preserve, then review how the selected model interprets it.
