How to Use the Video Tool
Video animates a still render into a short cinematic clip — 4 to 10 seconds. Describe the camera movement (pan, zoom, fly-through) and the AI generates a smooth video clip of your scene. Great for client presentations, social media, and adding life to marketing materials.
What it costs
5 credits per second of video. Credits are only charged for a successful generation — if a job fails, they are refunded automatically. See credits and billing for what each plan includes.
How to use it
- Start with a high-quality still image (a render you've already made works best).
- Set the video duration (2–10 seconds). Each second costs 5 credits.
- Describe the camera movement in the motion prompt.
- Click Generate Video.
- Wait — video generation takes longer than image generation (1–3 minutes).
- Download the result as an MP4 file.
Pro tips
- Subtle movements look more professional than dramatic ones. A slow pan beats a fast zoom every time.
- Drone-style rotating shots work great for exteriors. Smooth dollies work great for interiors.
- Avoid asking for things that change the scene (e.g. 'door opens'). Stick to camera moves.
- Start with 4 seconds. If it works, extend. Longer = more credits.
- Music sells the result more than the clip itself — pair with ambient music in your final cut.
Example prompts
Copy any of these straight into the prompt box, then swap in the materials and setting for your own project.
- Drone shot rotating slowly around the building, clockwise, smooth and cinematic
- Gentle dolly pan from left to right across the front facade
- Slow zoom into the front entrance, ending centered on the door
- Aerial pull-back revealing the building and surrounding landscape
- Smooth fly-through entering the front door and continuing into the main living space
- Subtle handheld feel as the camera walks slowly toward the building
- Crane shot tilting down from the rooftop to the front entrance
- Slow pan up the height of the building from foundation to roofline
- Gentle parallax movement: camera slides sideways while the building rotates subtly
- Camera orbits 180 degrees around the building, golden-hour light catching the facade
- Slow camera glide through the room, ending on the focal point (fireplace, window, art)
- Cinematic pullback from a close-up detail to a wide establishing shot
