Image-to-video results
Source images and generated videos are shown separately. Copy a prompt to reproduce the motion language or adapt it to your own image.
A source image supplies composition and appearance for a polished image-to-video result.
Original prompt
High-quality cinematic motion, preserve the subject and scene layout, natural physical movement and stable lighting.
Choose by starting material, reference method, resolution, and shot-control requirements.
Endpoint control
Use a first frame or first/last frames for longer controlled transitions.
Fast image animation
Animate still images with efficient camera and subject motion.
Fast cinematic video
Create image-led video with optional generated audio.
Hailuo 2.3 Image to Video turns a source image into a continuous video shot while preserving recognizable subject details.
The Playground and API use model ID hailuo-2.3/image-to-video. Keep image guidance and motion instructions in the same request.
These specifications reflect the current HiAPI Hailuo 2.3 Image to Video request contract. Endpoint frames and multimodal references are separate input modes and should not be mixed.
Starting price is 800 Credits / video.
Start with a clear input image and a short clip, then increase duration after subject and motion are stable.
The first frame defines subject, composition, and shape. Add a matching last frame only when the ending state must be fixed, leaving room for the intended motion.
Write the middle process in time order, state whether the camera is locked, preserve stable details, and place sound cues next to their matching events.
Start at 6 seconds to inspect endpoint continuity and subject stability, then increase duration or create the production task with hailuo-2.3/image-to-video.
This is a minimal asynchronous first-frame request. Use the API docs for callbacks, task retrieval, reference limits, and error handling.

}'Yes. hailuo-2.3/image-to-video is an image-to-video route. The image establishes the subject and opening composition; the prompt directs motion, camera, and environmental change.
The current HiAPI contract supports 6s / 10s. Check the page controls and API docs for the current options.
Each generated video is billed at the selected duration tier. The page follows the global display unit, while the successful task record contains the final charge.
Use a clear, unobstructed source with a complete composition. Describe the main action and camera first, then name the appearance, material, and background relationships that must remain stable. Validate a short clip first.
