LongCat Video Distilled

LongCat Video Distilled Text to Video 480p is designed for the fastest inexpensive conversion of a shot description into a reviewable moving draft. Because it begins from text rather than an image, the prompt must establish the subject, setting, action, camera behavior, and visual mood. The 480p target favors breadth of exploration: teams can test many narrative beats or framing ideas before selecting a few directions for larger delivery formats.

Its controls cover fps, frame count, aspect ratio, guidance strength, inference steps, encoding quality, write strategy, and container type. Together they support predictable proxy generation for storyboards, social concepts, and automated creative testing. Favor bold silhouettes and unambiguous action at this scale, review motion and composition instead of texture fidelity, and carry only validated prompt structures into 720p or full-quality production.

Highlights

• LongCat Video Distilled: dedicated prompt-driven video generation. This exact route centers on prompt-driven video generation; it uses prompt to separate its job from neighboring endpoints in the same family.
• fps control. range 1 to 60; this setting provides a concrete lever for route-specific output planning.
• seed control. The seed for the random number generator; use it to build controlled comparisons without changing the rest of the request.
• num_frames control. range 17 to 961; together with the other documented fields, it supports repeatable review of this model path.

When to Use

Prompt Guide

Start with the desired result, then describe the source relationship, subject action, composition or camera behavior, lighting, style, and timing. For text-to-video generation, state what must remain stable as clearly as what should change. Use only fields exposed by the schema; the example below is structurally valid for this route.

{
  "prompt": "realistic filming style, a person wearing a dark helmet, a deep-colored jacket, blue jeans, and bright yellow shoes rides a skateboard along a winding mountain road. The skateboarder starts in a standing position, then gradually lowers into a crouch, extending one hand to touch the road surface while maintaining a low center of gravity to navigate a sharp curve. After completing the turn, the skateboarder rises back to a standing position and continues gliding forward. The background features lush green hills flanking both sides of the road, with distant snow-capped mountain peaks rising against a clear, bright blue sky. The camera follows closely from behind, smoothly tracking the skateboarder’s movements and capturing the dynamic scenery along the route. The scene is shot in natural daylight, highlighting the vivid outdoor environment and the skateboarder’s fluid actions.",
