Motion Control

🎬 Motion Control


Convert a static image into an animated video clip with precise control over the type of movement.

Transfer motion from a reference video onto a character image - making your AI character perform any movement or action.




Motion Control Steps


Follow these steps to get started:

  • Go to Video → Motion Control
  • Upload your motion reference video (3–30 seconds)
  • Click Select Image to upload your character image
  • Optionally add a Prompt - describe background or scene context (e.g. 'Snowy park setting')
  • Select Model - Standard ( or as per your subscription plan)
  • Toggle Original Audio on or off
  • Click Generate Video
  • Preview and download





Tips

Here are some tips to get the best results:

  • The reference video controls all movement - choose a clip with the exact action you want
  • Character image should be a full-body or half-body shot for best motion transfer


Common Issues

If you run into problems, here are the most common issues and how to resolve them:

  • Motion looks distorted - use a cleaner reference video with a single person and clear background
  • Character doesn't match movement - try a character image with a neutral standing pose
