Grok Video AI Video Generator
AI Video
Grok Video (Grok Imagine Video) is an AI video generator for text to video and image to video. The version here is Grok Video 1.5. Describe a shot, or upload a still and describe only the motion, to get a short clip back quickly enough to try several takes.
How to generate a video with Grok Video
Describe the shot, not a whole scene
Name the subject, the camera and the light. If you uploaded a still, write only the motion.
Set duration and ratio, then generate
Length and aspect ratio are chosen before the run. Keep the clip to one action.
What Grok Video is for
Text to video
Write the subject, the camera move and the one action in the clip. Grok Video 1.5 is fast enough that changing one phrase and generating again is cheaper than rewriting the whole description.
Image to video from a still
Upload a frame and describe the movement only: what enters, what drifts, where the camera goes. Describing the picture again tends to fight with the frame you provided.
One action per clip
One clear action holds up better than several at once. Slow continuous movement survives the render more reliably than fast cuts or crowds.
