What is Kling Motion Control?

Kling Motion Control is an AI-powered feature that enables real-time motion control of character posture and expressions from a reference image. It uses natural raw datasets for optimal video experience, allowing you to transfer motions from reference videos to your character images.

What types of motions work best?

Full-body movements, dance routines, sports actions, and hand gestures work exceptionally well. For best results, use clear reference videos with smooth, natural movements. Avoid heavily blurred, shaky, or extremely fast-paced motions.

How long should my reference video be?

Motion reference videos should be 3-60 seconds long, with 3-5 seconds being optimal for most use cases. The generated video duration will match your selected reference video length, up to 30 seconds maximum.

Can I control the character orientation?

Yes, by default the system generates video with 'Character Orientation Matches Video'. You can also select 'Character Orientation Matches Image' which supports camera movement for more creative control.

What image types work best for character reference?

Full-body or half-body images work best. Ensure your character is in a pose ready to move and that proportions roughly match those in the reference video. Leave enough space in the image for the intended action.

Can I add prompts to control the output?

Yes, you can enter prompts to control background elements and other scene information. This allows you to customize the environment while maintaining the precise motion from your reference video.
