Sign in to Generate Videos

Create AI-generated videos from text or images.

Features

• Text-to-Video - Describe any scene and get a video clip
• Image-to-Video - Upload an image as a starting frame and animate it
• Multi-Shot Storyboard - Build sequences with up to 6 shots, each with its own prompt and duration
• Start and End Frames - Pin specific images as the first or last frame of your video
• Reference Images - Upload reference images and use @Element1, @Element2 in your prompt to keep characters consistent
• Native Audio - Generates synchronized audio with dialogue support (Chinese and English)
• 3-15 Second Clips - Flexible duration from quick shots to longer sequences
• Negative Prompt - Specify what you don't want in your video
• Prompt Adherence - Fine-tune how closely the model follows your description

Layout

The generator uses the same section order in all modes:

1. Mode selector
2. Scene Input (single prompt or storyboard shots)
3. Reference Frames & Characters
4. Render Controls
5. Advanced options

Tips for Best Results

• Describe the scene, subject, and motion clearly in your prompt
• Include camera directions when relevant (e.g., "slow pan", "dolly zoom", "tracking shot")
• Mention lighting, mood, and visual style (e.g., "cinematic", "golden hour", "noir")
• Keep prompts focused on a single scene or action for best coherence
• Use the negative prompt to exclude common artifacts like blur and distortion
• Lower the Prompt Adherence slider for more creative freedom, raise it for tighter control
• For image-to-video, describe the motion you want rather than repeating what's in the image
• For dialogue, write speech in your prompt naturally and Kling will generate matching voices

Multi-Shot Storyboard

The Storyboard mode lets you build a video sequence from multiple shots. Each shot gets its own prompt and duration, and Kling renders them together into a single continuous video.

You can add up to 6 shots. Two split modes are available: Custom durations lets you set each shot's length independently (3-15s each), while Auto split lets the model decide how to distribute time across your shots.

Think of each shot like a cut in a film. Describe what happens in each one: the framing, action, and camera movement. The model handles transitions between them.

Start and End Frames

Use the Reference Frames & Characters section to upload a Start Frame and End Frame.

• Start Frame is required in Image-to-Video
• Start Frame is also required if you use an End Frame or Reference Images
• End Frame is optional in every mode

Reference Images

Upload up to 4 reference images in the Reference Frames & Characters section. Each gets an @Element tag (@Element1, @Element2, etc.) that you use in your prompt or shot prompts to tell the model which character or object to place.

Use a clear frontal photo of the character with good lighting and no obstructions. The model will maintain that character's appearance throughout the video, including across multi-shot storyboards.

Example Prompts

Text-to-Video:

• "A cat stretching lazily on a sun-drenched windowsill, dust motes floating in warm afternoon light, cozy indoor atmosphere"
• "Drone flyover of a winding river through autumn forest, vibrant red and gold foliage, golden hour lighting"
• "Close-up of espresso being poured into a ceramic cup, steam rising, shallow depth of field, cafe ambiance"

Image-to-Video:

• "The character slowly turns to face the camera and smiles, gentle wind blowing through their hair"
• "Camera slowly zooms out while leaves fall from the tree, soft natural lighting"
• "The landscape transitions from day to golden sunset, clouds moving across the sky"

Storyboard (3 shots):

1. "Wide establishing shot of a misty mountain valley at dawn, camera slowly drifting forward"
2. "Medium shot of a lone hiker walking along the ridge, wind blowing their jacket"
3. "Close-up of their face as they reach the summit and smile, golden light breaking through clouds"

With Reference Images:

• Upload a photo of a person as @Element1, then prompt: "@Element1 walks through a bustling city street, camera tracking from the side, golden hour lighting"
