Blend Studio AIFrom Still to
Motion.
Text-to-Video is magic, but it's hard to control. The secret to professional AI video is not generating video at all—at first. It's generating the perfect image, then making it move.
The Perfect Keyframe
Think of yourself as a Director of Photography. You wouldn't start rolling the camera until the lighting and set dressing were perfect.
In Blend Studio, start in the Image Engine. Use all the tools available to generate a pristine, high-resolution 16:9 image. This will serve as the "First Frame" of your video.
The Motion Prompt
Once you switch to the Video Engine and upload your image, your prompting strategy must change. Do not describe the scene. Describe the action.
"A woman standing on a cliff looking at the ocean, blue sky, clouds."
"Slow camera dolly forward, wind blowing hair, clouds drifting right, subtle smile."
Motion Bucket ID
This is the "Director's" setting. It controls how much chaos you allow in the movement.
Low (1-40)
"The Micro-Movement." Use this for portraits. It keeps the face stable but adds subtle breathing or blinking.
High (100+)
"The Action Shot." Use this for cars or drones. Creates sweeping movement but risks warping details.
Interpolation & Extension
Need a transition? Upload an "End Frame" as well. Blend Studio will morph your start image into your end image over 4 seconds.
Need a longer shot? Use the "Extend" feature to take the last frame of your generated video and generate another 4 seconds, allowing you to build clips up to 150 seconds long.
