Overview
kling-v2.6-pro-motion-control — Image-to-Video AI Model
kling-v2.6-pro-motion-control is an advanced image-to-video model that transfers motion from reference videos onto static character images with physics-aware precision. Instead of generating random clips, this model lets you direct performances by combining a character image with a motion reference video, producing seamless, continuous video output that maintains identity consistency while executing complex movements. The Pro variant delivers enhanced quality for intricate choreography, expressive gestures, and professional-grade motion fidelity—solving the core challenge of creating cinematic AI video content without manual animation or costly production setups.
Developed by Kling as part of the kling-v2.6 family, kling-v2.6-pro-motion-control excels at motion transfer where traditional video AI models struggle: it understands biomechanics, preserves character identity across 30-second continuous takes, and interprets camera movement from reference footage. This makes it ideal for creators, filmmakers, and brands who need reliable, controllable video generation rather than unpredictable generative output.
Technical Specifications
What Sets kling-v2.6-pro-motion-control Apart
30-Second Continuous Generation Without Cuts or Identity Shifts
kling-v2.6-pro-motion-control supports up to 30 seconds of uninterrupted video output, eliminating the need to stitch multiple 3-second clips together. This enables full-scene creation with consistent character identity and fluid motion throughout, a capability that separates it from shorter-duration image-to-video models.
Physics-Aware Biomechanics and Motion Realism
The model understands mass, gravity, impact, and momentum—when a character jumps, they land with believable force; when they run, clothing reacts naturally. This physics-grounded approach produces motion that feels intentional and grounded rather than "floaty," a hallmark of less sophisticated motion transfer systems.
Reference-Driven Facial Expression and Camera Motion Interpretation
Beyond body movement, kling-v2.6-pro-motion-control captures subtle facial changes, lip-sync alignment, and camera behavior (panning, pushing, pulling, rotation) directly from your reference video. This creates emotionally expressive performances and dynamic cinematic framing without manual keyframing.
Technical Specifications:
- Output resolutions: 480p (10 credits/second), 580p (16 credits/second), 720p (21 credits/second)
- Maximum video duration: 30 seconds
- Input formats: MP4, MOV, MKV for reference video; JPEG, PNG, WebP for character images
- File size limits: 10MB per input (video and image)
- Frame rate: 24fps for professional video workflows
For developers building AI video generation APIs or creators seeking motion control without complex animation software, kling-v2.6-pro-motion-control delivers the specificity and reliability that generic video models cannot match.
Key Considerations
- Structure prompts with subject description, motion directives, stylistic guidance, and technical specs like lens settings for best results
- Use prompt strength (CFG scale) to balance text adherence and visual quality - higher values increase fidelity but may reduce realism
- Reduce motion complexity to avoid distortion; specify "stable camera" for complex movements like 360-degree rotations
- Opt for 5-second clips for faster iteration or 10 seconds for detailed scenes, considering quality vs speed trade-offs
- Test systematically and document failures to understand model boundaries
Tips & Tricks
How to Use kling-v2.6-pro-motion-control on Eachlabs
Access kling-v2.6-pro-motion-control through Eachlabs' Playground or API. Provide a character image (JPEG, PNG, or WebP) and a motion reference video (MP4, MOV, or MKV, up to 30 seconds), then specify your desired output resolution and any scene context via prompt. The model returns a continuous video file at your chosen resolution—480p, 580p, or 720p—ready for social media, editing, or further production work. Use Eachlabs' SDK for programmatic access or integrate via REST API for production workflows.
---END---Capabilities
- Generates cinematic image-to-video with native audio, including voices, effects, ambience, and emotional tone in one pass
- Precise motion control for character actions, expressions, camera movements, and stable animations from reference images
- High-quality 1080p outputs with enhanced textures, lighting, stylistic consistency, and temporal coherence
- Synchronized lip-sync, gestures, and pacing for realistic talking scenes
- Versatile for T2V/I2V modes with fluid character consistency and 3D motion elements
What Can I Use It For?
Use Cases for kling-v2.6-pro-motion-control
Indie Filmmakers and Visual Effects Artists
Filmmakers can perform stunts safely or transform into any character by uploading a stunt reference video and their character image. For example, a director might upload a parkour reference video and a character portrait, then generate a 30-second scene of that character executing complex movement—eliminating the need for expensive stunt doubles or motion capture equipment. The Pro mode ensures smooth, artifact-free output suitable for editing into larger productions.
Fashion and E-Commerce Brands
Fashion brands can showcase clothing in motion without booking runway shows or hiring models for every product line. By uploading a walking or dancing reference video and product images, brands generate dynamic product videos that highlight how garments move and drape in real-world conditions. This accelerates content production for social media and reduces the cost of traditional fashion photography.
Virtual Influencers and Content Creators
Creators building virtual influencer personas can generate viral dance content with beat-synchronized motion. A creator might upload a trending dance reference video and their character image with the prompt "energetic dance performance, bright daylight, street background, natural facial expression," producing a 30-second clip ready for TikTok or Instagram—maintaining consistent character identity while executing complex choreography.
Marketing and Advertising Teams
Marketing teams can create personalized spokesperson videos or product demonstration content by combining a talent image with a reference performance. Instead of booking talent for multiple takes, teams generate variations of the same motion applied to different character appearances, enabling rapid A/B testing and localized content creation at scale.
Things to Be Aware Of
- Excels in fluid motion and audio sync, with users noting realistic gestures and natural pacing in talking scenes
- Motion distortion in complex prompts like simultaneous zoom/rotation; mitigated by simplifying instructions
- Strong performance in benchmarks vs prior versions, with better fidelity than 2.1/2.5 but trades speed for audio quality
- Resource-intensive for 10s Pro mode; users report efficient iteration with shorter clips
- High consistency in character movement and scene ambience from community tests
- Positive feedback on broadcast-ready outputs; concerns around over-complex motions warping geometry
Limitations
- Prone to distortion in highly complex simultaneous camera transformations
- Limited to 10-second max duration, less optimal for long-form content
- Audio primarily supports English/Chinese with auto-translation; may vary in other languages
