All-in-One Free Reference to Video
Reference limits and accepted media differ by model. Choose after deciding whether identity, style, motion, audio, or a source video is the main anchor.
Use the right reference for the detail that must stay consistent
A reference can anchor identity, appearance, product form, style, motion, sound, or a complete scene. Separate those roles before generating.

Create Consistent Video Without Rebuilding the Subject
Preserve recognizable identity
Use clear references to anchor the face, clothing, silhouette, product form, or object details that should survive a new scene.
Combine several reference roles
Assign different references to identity, styling, environment, motion, or sound instead of asking one input to control everything.
Place the subject in a new context
Describe a new environment, action, camera path, and ending while keeping the reference subject central.
Remix references into one scene
Bring separate people, products, objects, or visual directions together in a coherent moving composition.
Guide motion and performance
Use a source video or explicit direction to communicate pose, gesture, rhythm, pace, and camera behavior.
Keep the result editable
Review identity, continuity, framing, and motion separately, then revise only the part of the direction that failed.

Reference to Video or Image to Video?

| Consistency-first | Use references to reduce identity and design drift across frames. | Keep the existing frame recognizable while adding animation. |
Frequently Asked Questions About Reference to Video
What is Reference to Video?
Reference to Video creates a new moving scene while using uploaded images, videos, or audio to guide identity, objects, products, style, movement, or sound. The exact accepted reference types depend on the selected model.
How is Reference to Video different from Image to Video?
Image to Video usually animates one source frame directly. Reference to Video can use several inputs as guidance while creating a different scene, composition, action, or camera path.
How many references can I upload?
The visible input count comes from the selected model and workflow. Choose the model first when a project depends on a specific number or combination of images, videos, or audio files.
Can I keep the same character across scenes?
Clear, complementary character references can guide identity across new scenes, but results should still be reviewed for facial features, clothing, proportions, and frame-to-frame continuity.
Can I use product images as references?
Yes. Use clean views that clearly show product shape, materials, colors, logos, and other non-negotiable details, then state what must remain unchanged.
Can one reference control style and another control identity?
Compatible models can accept several reference inputs. In the prompt, explain which input guides the subject and which guides palette, lighting, medium, motion, or environment.
Does Reference to Video support source videos or audio?
Some reference-aware models accept video or audio in addition to images. The composer updates its accepted media and limits when you change models.
Is Reference to Video free to use?
The page is free to browse. Generating a video uses Credits, and the current quote is shown before submission.
