What it's like to use

Vidu Q3 brings an image to life: you supply the opening frame, describe what happens next, and get a 1 to 16 second clip at 540p, 720p or 1080p, with sound unless you switch it off. The clip starts from your still, so a face, outfit or set that's already approved doesn't drift.

Good for

  • Animating an approved campaign photo or storyboard frame
  • One-second stingers and full 16-second beats
  • Story and feed cuts from 9:16 and 16:9 crops of one image

How to prompt Vidu Q3

  1. Crop the still to the shape you want delivered; the clip takes its shape.
  2. Describe the action, camera, light and sound in the order they happen, without re-describing the picture.
  3. Put big reveals into the frame rather than the prompt: anything the image doesn't show has to be invented.
