- Use one reference image across multiple image-to-video models
- Check duration, resolution, and aspect ratio support

How it works
How to use this page
Upload a reference image
Start from a photo, illustration, product still, or storyboard frame. Vidyu stores the reference and routes it to the selected model.
Describe the motion or scene change
Use the prompt to describe camera movement, subject motion, environmental change, or a new staging of the scene.
Generate and review the result
When the render completes, download the MP4 and continue iterating from the dashboard if you need another pass.
What to know
Key details before you choose a model
Image-aware model selection
Different models behave differently with product images, portraits, illustrations, and concept frames. Vidyu keeps those options in one place.
Upload once
You can upload the reference once and generate from the same dashboard instead of re-uploading the same source across multiple tools.
Common production tasks
Image-to-video is used for product demos, concept exploration, social assets, poster animation, and ad variants.
