1. Decide what should move
Start with the result you want: a person following a routine, a character animation or a pet clip. Choose a reference that matches the subject and framing. Simple solo movement is easier to review than a crowded scene.
2. Prepare one clear image
Use a sharp, evenly lit photo with one intended subject. For full-body motion, include hands and feet and leave space around the body. Avoid images with heavy filters or an obstructed face. Accepted images are JPG, PNG and WebP, up to 10 MB and 24 megapixels, with at least 340 pixels on each side.
3. Pick a template or upload a reference
Templates provide a prepared performance. A custom MP4 or MOV lets you bring your own choreography. The actual reference file must fit the model’s duration limit; a timestamp field alone does not trim the source. Use the clip editor when available.
4. Review settings and total cost
Check the output quality, actual clip length, sound setting and displayed credit total. Custom motion follows the reference duration. Confirm that you have permission for the photo and reference.
5. Submit once and follow progress
After submission, keep the task in your creation history. A network delay does not necessarily mean that nothing was submitted. If a request is marked uncertain, wait for confirmation rather than starting a duplicate.
6. Inspect and download
Watch the entire result. Check faces, fingers, feet, clothing, background changes and audio. Download before the displayed expiry. Keep a local copy of any result you want to retain.
If the result needs another attempt
Change one thing at a time: try a clearer image, a simpler reference, or a more similar starting pose. A completed video may still contain artifacts. Only confirmed technical failures automatically release reserved credits.
