🖼️Image-to-Video Prompts

Turn Static into Stunning

Reel supports image-to-video prompting, allowing you to generate rich video content based on a single image input. This is perfect for evolving artwork, enhancing still frames, or animating stylized visuals into full-motion scenes.

⚙️ How It Works

You can attach an image directly in your prompt (Telegram bot or web app), and Reel will use it as the visual base to generate a motion sequence that stays stylistically consistent.

📌 Note: Ensure your image is high quality and well-lit for best results. Complex compositions work better than plain backgrounds.

🧠 Best Practices

✅

Describe the scene, not the image

Don’t just upload and say “animate this.” Give a clear scene direction.

Example:

“A cinematic zoom-out from this image, transitioning into a dreamy sunrise landscape, subtle camera motion.”

✅

Set motion expectations

Mention how the camera should move or what should evolve in the scene.

Example:

“Slow panning shot revealing a crowd behind the subject, mist rolling in from the mountains.”

✅

Match your prompt to the image’s aesthetic

Use the same mood/style keywords (e.g. vaporwave, digital painting, anime, etc.) for consistency.

🚫 What to Avoid

• Uploading very low-res or cluttered images

• Using text-heavy images — the model doesn’t preserve written text

• Expecting perfect facial consistency unless specified carefully

🧪 Advanced Tip: Use Reels for Evolutions

Want to show time progression or transformation?

Start with an image, and guide the video into a different time of day, expression, or location.

“Start with this medieval tavern image and slowly transition into a nighttime battle scene in the same location.”
