Kling AI: Animate architectural renders with Kling Pro
Kling AIDemo summary
The user takes a generated architectural image and uses the Kling Pro video tool to create a 5-second animation featuring falling cherry blossoms and a camera zoom.
Step-by-step
- Select the Image to Video tool at the top of the interface
- Click Select to open the image library and choose a generated image to serve as the starting keyframe
- Enter a text prompt describing the desired animation and movement
- Select the aspect ratio to match your source image
- Choose a duration of 5 seconds or 10 seconds
- Click Run to generate the video
Options
- Upload a custom image instead of using the internal library
- Select Landscape or Square (1:1) aspect ratios
- Toggle between 5-second and 10-second video durations
Watch out for
- Changing the aspect ratio from the source image requires the AI to inpaint the edges to match the new resolution
- 10-second videos have a different pricing/token cost than 5-second videos
- Video generation takes longer than image generation
Tips
- Match the video resolution to the resolution of your starter image for better quality
- Run at least two generations for each prompt to determine if a result is due to the prompt or a random seed
- If multiple generations fail to show a specific element, refine the prompt to be more specific (e.g., 'falling cherry blossoms')
