Get better results
from your images

Give one clear direction

Start with a single subject action and one camera movement. A short, specific prompt is easier to follow than competing instructions.

Keep your references clear

Use @image_1 or @video_1 in your prompt to describe how each reference should guide the scene. These are references, not a sequence of keyframes.

Choose your framing early

Use source images close to your output ratio. Keep important details away from the edges, and review every result before sharing.

Questions, answered.

What can I create on this page?

Create videos with Kling 4.0 from image and video references. This page accepts up to 10 images and 5 videos. Reference videos must be 2–30 seconds each and no more than 30 seconds in total. Custom elements and separate voice references are not offered in this workspace.

Can I use just one image?

Yes. Upload one image and describe the motion. You can also combine images and videos. References guide appearance, scene and movement; they are not assigned start, middle or end frames.

How do I refer to an uploaded image or video?

Use the tag shown beside the file, such as @image_1 or @video_1. Every tag in your prompt must match an uploaded file. Remove a file’s tag from the prompt before removing that file.

Which files can I upload?

Images: JPG, PNG or WEBP, up to 10 MB, with sides of 300–65,536 pixels and an aspect ratio between 0.4 and 2.5. Videos: MP4, MOV or WEBM, up to 10 MB each. Files are verified by the server before generation.

Do I need to sign in? Is generation free?

You can prepare a draft before signing in. Generation requires Google sign-in and sufficient site credits. Review the cost and watermark condition beside Generate before submitting.

How are video reference credits calculated?

Without video input, billing uses output duration. With video input, billable seconds equal output duration plus the greater of total input duration and output duration. For example, 10 seconds of output with 5 seconds of video input bills 20 seconds. Multiple input videos are added together.

Will my draft stay if I leave or sign in?

Images, videos, prompts and settings are saved in this browser on this device. Signing in or returning from Pricing does not start generation automatically. Account-bound drafts are not restored into another account.

What happens if generation fails or times out?

Your draft remains available. If submission status is uncertain, check the existing request before submitting again. Confirmed failure refunds and the current task status are displayed with the result; an uncertain request is not treated as a failed generation.

Does the video include audio or a watermark?

Without reference video input, Kling generates native audio automatically. With video references, you can choose whether to keep the original sound. The site watermark condition depends on your account and eligible credit balance and is shown in the current server quote.
