Kling 1.6 provides Standard and Pro tasks for creating 5 or 10-second videos from text or prepared images. Use a written scene to define the subject and action, a starting frame to anchor an existing composition, or one to four Elements reference images to guide the visual sources. Pro frame-based generation can also use an ending image to establish the final state. Describe the action sequence, camera behavior and details to preserve, then choose the matching task and review its current duration-based cost.
Kling 1.6 is developed by Kuaishou. Vidgo provides access to the model. Model names and trademarks belong to their respective owners.Choose Standard or Pro Text to Video for a written scene. Choose the corresponding Image to Video task for a starting frame or an Elements reference set, and use Pro when an ending frame should define the destination. Review the input method before preparing URLs because frame inputs and Elements references use separate request fields.

Text generation establishes the shot through a prompt. Frame-based generation uses a starting image and, in Pro, an optional ending image. Elements generation uses image_urls with one to four references in place of start/end-frame fields. Choose the input method around the scene you need to create, then use the corresponding task and fields.

A clear prompt states the subject, action order and camera behavior. Use a source image when appearance is already prepared, two Pro frames when a transition has a defined destination, or Elements references when separate images should guide the scene.
Describe the location, subject, direction of travel and camera framing. The alpine cable-car record requests a continuous vertical shot above the cloud line. Inspect the resulting scene and motion when developing a storyboard concept.
Supply the portrait and describe a restrained action. The tailor example asks her to raise her gaze and smile while her hands remain on the folded cloth. Compare the source and video for face, clothing, hand placement and expression.
Name the moving subject and its path through the scene, then describe the lighting and camera. The underwater wreck record provides a Pro text-generated example of a manta ray moving through the composition. Review the subject path and environmental continuity.
Supply the opening and final images and describe the mechanical movement between them. The polar-station record asks the door to rotate inward on its left hinge as cold light enters the room. Inspect the rigid structure and final frame against the inputs.
Provide one to four references with image_urls and explain what each image contributes. The tin-astronaut example uses separate images for the small character and kitchen scene. Review the generated clip for the requested appearance, scale and action within that setting.
The Standard record starts from an elderly tailor’s portrait and asks for a small gaze change, smile and subtle movement of the curtain. The Pro record supplies closed-door and open-door images of a polar station and describes a continuous rigid rotation between them. These are separate creative briefs; compare each input set with its own actual result to inspect appearance, structure and motion.
A continuous five-second intimate portrait of the same elderly female tailor in her quiet workroom. Her hands remain gently resting on the folded fabric on the table. She slowly raises her gaze from the cloth toward someone just beside the camera and gives a small warm smile; her shoulders rise subtly with a breath. Preserve her age, face, glasses, hairstyle, fingers and clothing exactly. A curtain moves very slightly at the edge of the softly lit window. Fixed camera, natural expression and skin, no talking, no cuts.
A single uninterrupted five-second locked shot from inside the same polar research station. The solid rectangular steel door is hinged on its LEFT edge. It slowly swings inward toward the left wall from fully closed to fully open, revealing the same snowy plain, dark mountain ridge and green aurora seen in the final image. The frame, wall panels and floor never move. Cold blue outdoor light spreads across the threshold as the door opens; outside, the aurora shimmers very subtly. No people, no morphing or dissolves, no camera movement. Physically coherent rigid hinged door and continuous movement from the supplied first frame to the supplied last frame.
Create a new scene from text, animate a portrait or nature photograph, connect two prepared visual states in Pro, or combine Elements references for a miniature scene. Prepare clear inputs and action instructions, choose 5 or 10 seconds, and review the result before using it in a storyboard, presentation or creative application.
Write a location, moving subject and viewpoint, then generate a short text-based scene. Review the composition and travel direction for a storyboard or location presentation.
Prepare a clear portrait and describe a small expression or gaze change while identifying the appearance to preserve. Inspect the video for a character study or story presentation.
Prepare first and last images and select Pro Image to Video. Describe the moving parts and fixed surroundings, then inspect the transition for an explanatory animation concept.
Prepare character and setting references, assign their roles through the Elements workflow and describe one short action. Review scale and placement before using the clip in an animation proposal.
Use a written scene or a source photograph and describe the animal’s movement and stable surroundings. Generate 5 or 10 seconds and inspect anatomy and motion for a visual study.
Retain the model identifier, prompt, frame or Elements URLs and duration from your online test. Follow the task documentation and retrieve the completed video through its task ID.
Kling 1.6 uses the selected Standard or Pro rate per second multiplied by the 5 or 10-second duration. The dynamic table shows each task’s current starting rate per second. Configure the variant, input method and duration on the task page to review the complete per-video estimate before generating.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kling 1.6 Standard Text to Video | Kling | Text to Video | Text prompt | 5 / 10 s | $0.045 / second |
| Kling 1.6 Standard Image to Video | Kling | Image to Video | First frame / Elements references | 5 / 10 s | $0.045 / second |
| Kling 1.6 Pro Text to Video | Kling | Text to Video | Text prompt | 5 / 10 s | $0.075 / second |
| Kling 1.6 Pro Image to Video | Kling | Image to Video | First and optional last frame / Elements | 5 / 10 s | $0.075 / second |
Test your creative brief online, then bring the verified request into your application.
Enter the prompt, choose 5 or 10 seconds and provide the selected frame or Elements inputs. Set the supported aspect ratio and optional prompt controls for that workflow, review the estimate and generate. Inspect motion, subject appearance and the defined final state when using a Pro ending frame.
Choose a task, inspect its settings and cost, and follow the result from an online test to an authenticated API request.
Choose Standard or Pro Text to Video for a written scene. Choose Image to Video for a starting frame or one to four Elements references, and choose Pro for an optional ending frame. Prepare the fields for that input method and describe the movement and details to preserve.
Open the matching task, enter your brief and supply the required images. Review the generated result against subject appearance, composition and the requested changes before carrying the workflow into a project.
Select Standard or Pro and the clip duration to review the full estimate. The listed price is a per-second rate, so plan the budget around both the chosen tier and the length of each clip.
Read the actual prompt and inspect its source images and result together. Use those examples to understand how to assign input roles and describe the details to preserve or change in your own request.
Retain the task ID returned by the API to query status and retrieve completed file URLs. Use your online generation history to review earlier results and the creative direction you tested.
Use the documentation linked from each task for its exact model identifier, accepted inputs, authentication and response format. Integrate the same task you tested online so its media and settings match the request.
