# Video Generation

> Generate videos from text, images, or audio — including talking head and lipsync.

Create short video clips from text prompts, animate still images, or produce talking-head videos with lipsync. All results are saved to your Pixelcut workspace.

## Text-to-video

Use the `generate_media` tool with `media_type: "video"` and a video model:

```
Generate a 5-second product reveal video of sneakers rotating on a white background.
```

## Image-to-video

Pass a start frame as an attachment and describe the motion you want:

```
Animate this product photo with a slow zoom in and subtle background motion.
```

The model uses the attached image as the opening frame and animates from there.

## Talking video

Attach a face image and provide a script — the model animates the face to speak the script with natural lip movement and expression:

```
Make this face say: "Hi everyone, welcome to our product launch. Today we are introducing something special."
```

## Lipsync

Attach both a face image and an audio file to sync lip movement to existing audio:

```
Lipsync this face image to the attached voiceover audio.
```

<Info>
  For lipsync, attach the face image and audio file together as separate `attachments`.

## Video parameters

The `generate_media` tool accepts:

| Parameter        | Description                           | Example                              |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| `prompt`         | Description of the video (required)   | `"slow pan across a sunlit kitchen"` |
| `model`          | Video model ID (required)             | `kling-v2.6-pro`                     |
| `media_type`     | Set to `"video"` for video generation | `video`                              |
| `aspect_ratio`   | Output aspect ratio                   | `16:9`, `9:16`, `1:1`                |
| `output_format`  | File format                           | `mp4`, `webm`                        |
| `num_variations` | Number of variations                  | `1`-`4`                              |
| `attachments`    | Start frame, face image, or audio     | —                                    |

## Batch video generation

Generate multiple variations:

```
Generate 3 variations of a product reveal animation for this image.
```

To produce the same video in different aspect ratios for different platforms, ask for separate runs:

```
Generate this product demo in 16:9 for YouTube and 9:16 for TikTok.
```

## Tips

<Tip>
  For talking videos, write the script as natural speech. Avoid stage directions or formatting — just write what the person should say.
</Tip>

* **Start frame matters.** For image-to-video, the quality and composition of your start frame directly affects the output.
* **Keep prompts focused.** Describe one clear motion or scene rather than a complex sequence.
* **Async jobs.** Video generation can take several minutes. Use `get_job_status` with `sync: true` to wait up to 25 seconds, or poll periodically for longer jobs.
