Grok Imagine Video 1.5 animates one first-frame image into a 1–15-second video with synchronized sound. The image establishes the subject, composition and aspect ratio; the prompt describes the action, camera movement and sound. Choose 480p, 720p or 1080p and an integer duration suited to the movement, then review the estimate, which combines the duration-based video charge and a fixed source-image charge. Use those controls for a precise training gesture, animal movement, a brief spoken scene or another animation built around your prepared image.
Grok Imagine Video 1.5 is developed by xAI. Vidgo provides access to the model. Model names and trademarks belong to their respective owners.Choose Image to Video and upload the image that should become the first frame. Describe the action sequence, camera behavior and accompanying sound, identify the appearance and objects to preserve, then select a 1–15-second duration and 480p, 720p or 1080p output.
The single Image to Video task accepts exactly one image_urls entry. That image supplies the first frame and determines the output aspect ratio. A prompt of up to 4,096 characters describes movement, camera and sound, while duration and resolution control the requested length and output specification.
| Model / task | Input and workflow |
|---|---|
| Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Image to Video | Animate one first-frame image into a 1–15 second video with synchronized sound and output up to 1080p. |
Prepare a clear first frame and explain exactly what should happen during the clip. The existing records below show one boxing jab, a wet alpaca shaking its wool and a laundromat scene with a spoken word and changing environmental sound.
Supply an image with the subject and important equipment clearly visible. The boxer source establishes her face, clothing, gloves and hanging bag before the motion prompt describes the single contact. The same image also determines the video’s aspect ratio.
State the number of actions and their timing. The 4-second boxer record asks for one jab during the first second and a held guard afterward while the bag settles. Inspect the hands, equipment and matching impact and chain sounds against the request.
Identify which body parts move and how their material responds. The alpaca record requests a brief shake, water droplets falling from wet wool and planted hooves. Compare the actual result with the source for anatomy, coat pattern and the surrounding landscape.
Write the speech, expression and environmental change in order. The laundromat record asks the washer to stop, the man to say “Finally.” and a soft exhale to follow. Inspect the face, glasses, machine geometry and requested sound sequence.
Select 480p, 720p or 1080p and an integer duration from 1 to 15 seconds. Prepare the source composition to suit the intended output and review the complete estimate. The laundromat source shown here anchors the 5-second 480p example; test your own settings for the required specification.
The first record supplies the boxer image and requests one jab in a 4-second 720p clip, including the single impact and settling bag. The second supplies the laundromat image and requests a 5-second 480p scene in which the washer stops and the man says “Finally.”. Read the full prompts and compare each actual video with its own image, action timing, appearance and sound instructions.
One continuous FOUR-SECOND real-time shot of this exact boxer and heavy bag. ONE JAB TOTAL. During the first second she extends ONLY the glove nearest the bag straight forward, contacts the bag once, and returns the same glove to her chin. The other glove stays touching her cheek for the entire shot and never punches. During seconds two through four she holds her guard and makes no further attacks while watching the bag gently swing and settle. Preserve the same face, curly hair, grey top, dark red gloves, two arms and single hanging bag attached to its chain. Locked camera. A compact deliberate training movement, stable anatomy and equipment. Audio: one soft padded impact exactly at the single contact, then a light chain rattle, natural breathing and quiet gym ambience. No speech, music, cut, text or branding.
Keep the same man, round glasses, short black hair, dark green hoodie and laundromat from the source image. One continuous five-second fixed medium-close shot. The clothes behind the closed washer window turn slowly and come to a stop during the first two seconds. He glances toward the washer, then quietly says the single English word 'Finally.' with matching lip movement, exhales and gives a small relieved smile. Preserve his face and glasses with only subtle head movement. Keep the machine casing and window geometry perfectly stable, no cut or new objects. Audio: the low washer hum winds down to silence, his natural quiet voice says 'Finally.' once, a soft exhale follows, and faint rain continues outside. No music, subtitles, visible writing, branding or watermark.
Prepare one image of a person, animal, object or scene and describe the action, camera and sound to create. Choose a 1–15-second duration and 480p, 720p or 1080p output, then inspect the completed video for a gesture study, character presentation, natural-history concept, brief dialogue or an integrated image-animation workflow.
Supply a clear image and describe the action count, contact and recovery. Allocate the duration between movement and settling, then inspect anatomy and equipment for a training or character-motion concept.
Provide the animal image and describe a small action, planted feet and the response of wool, fur or water. Review the video against the source for a wildlife visual study.
Prepare a source with a clearly visible face and describe the exact words, expression and accompanying sound. Inspect the generated scene for a character presentation or narrative proposal.
Describe the sound that begins, changes or ends alongside the visible action. Review the completed clip for both the scene movement and the requested sound sequence before using it in a presentation.
Choose the integer duration and 480p, 720p or 1080p resolution, using the source image for the aspect ratio. Review the full duration and image-processing estimate before generating a project test.
Retain the prompt, single image URL, resolution and duration. Submit them through the authenticated API, track the returned task ID and retrieve the completed video for your application.
Grok Imagine Video 1.5 uses a per-second video rate determined by 480p, 720p or 1080p, plus a fixed source-image processing charge for the request. The dynamic table shows the current starting per-second rate. The complete estimate combines the chosen resolution’s rate multiplied by the requested duration and the image-processing charge. Open the task to review that full amount with your actual resolution and duration.
| Model | Provider | Workflow | Input material | Output specification | Starting rate |
