Create videos with native audio, multiple image references, and keyframe control, or choose 1.5 Lite for simpler, lower-cost generation.
Combine character, product, clothing, and background references in one generation. Grok Imagine Video 1.5 supports up to 14 reference images, letting you define different parts of a scene without making any single image the opening frame. Reference-to-video supports output up to 720p.
Set the first and last frames, then add up to four intermediate keyframes at specific timestamps. Guide visual transitions, plan how a scene develops, or create a loop using the same opening and closing image. On SeeGen AI, first/last-frame control is available; intermediate keyframes are not currently exposed.
Create dialogue, sound effects, and ambient sound together with your video. Both 1.5 and 1.5 Lite support native audio with lip-synced speech. Include spoken lines and sound directions in your prompt to guide what viewers hear.
Version 1.5 improves motion continuity and physical interactions compared with the previous model. It is designed to reduce visual warping and give movement a more believable sense of weight and momentum.
Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Lite offers lower-cost text-to-video and image-to-video generation with synchronized audio. Use Lite for simple clips and early experiments, or choose 1.5 when you need multiple references, keyframe control, or native 1080p.
Select Grok Imagine Video 1.5 or 1.5 Lite. Choose a generation mode, such as Text to Video or Image to Video. Use 1.5 for multi-reference generation and first-and-last-frame control.
Describe the subject, action, camera movement, and sound. Upload a starting image, first and last frames, or multiple reference images depending on your selected mode.
Set the video duration, resolution, and aspect ratio where available. Review the credit cost, generate your video, then preview and download the result.
