With duration: "auto" the run is pre-authorized at 30 seconds, then settled on the length that was actually generated. Failed runs are not charged. Output files are copied to SandBase storage and the returned URL stays valid for 7 days; download anything you need to keep.

Prompting

  • Cover subject, action, setting, camera, light, and sound in one or two sentences each.
  • Spell out camera timing, e.g. “holds for two seconds, then cranes up over the rooftops”.
  • Quote dialogue and say who speaks it.

At night a kitten trots along a wet rooftop; neon signs flicker across the city behind it. Low tracking shot that rises as it leaps a gap, soft rain and distant traffic.

Limits

  • This endpoint accepts no media inputs. To animate a picture use image-to-video; to steer with references use reference-to-video.
