Grok Imagine 1.5 image-to-video prompt guide

Grok Imagine 1.5 image-to-video prompt работает лучше, когда сначала защищает первый кадр. Source image — это старт видео, а не просто mood reference.

TL;DR: сначала фиксируйте кадр, потом добавляйте motion

Начинайте с сильной source image.
Пишите слоями: first-frame lock, identity, camera move, motion beats, timing, negative constraints.
Используйте slow push-in, dolly, orbit, rack focus и parallax вместо dynamic.
Назовите, что может двигаться и что нельзя менять.
Финальный текст добавляйте в editing tool, не в генерации.

Структура prompt

xAI workflow では still image が video の starting point になります。そのため prompt は motion より先に first-frame preservation を指定する必要があります。

Layer	Instruction	Reason
First-frame lock	Begin exactly from the attached image.	Keeps the source frame from becoming loose inspiration.
Identity rules	Preserve face, product label, UI screen, hands, logo, and layout.	Prevents identity drift.
Camera language	Use push-in, dolly, orbit, pan, rack focus, parallax.	Creates controllable movement.
Motion beats	Add 1-3 timed movements.	Short clips need readable beats.
Negative constraints	No new people, no scene cut, no generated captions.	Reduces common artifacts.
Review check	Inspect identity, camera path, and text-safe space first.	Makes iteration specific.

Матрица сценариев

Goal	Source image	Prompt focus	Check first
Product reveal	Clean product still.	Orbit, reflection, label lock.	Logo distortion.
Portrait teaser	Stable face crop.	Identity, breathing, push-in.	Face morphing.
Social clip	Vertical layout with empty headline area.	Handheld drift, light sweep.	Generated captions.
Cinematic scene	Depth between foreground and background.	Dolly, parallax, stable horizon.	Scene jump.
UI showcase	Clear screen hierarchy.	Locked screen and reflection control.	Fake UI changes.

Prompt blocks stay English-only so they can be copied directly into the video workflow.

Cinematic still for camera motion — This first-party prompt-library image matches dolly, parallax, light sweep, and focus-pull examples.

Product reveal: Animate the attached product image as a 6-second premium launch shot. Keep the product silhouette, label position, and material unchanged. Start with a locked first frame, then add a slow 20-degree orbit, soft rim-light movement, subtle background parallax, realistic reflections, no new text, no logo distortion.
Portrait motion: Animate the attached portrait as a calm editorial video. Preserve face identity, hairstyle, wardrobe color, and camera crop. Add a gentle push-in, natural breathing, soft fabric movement, eye contact held for the first 2 seconds, shallow depth of field, no extra hands, no face morphing.
Social teaser: Turn the attached campaign still into a vertical 8-second teaser. Keep the subject placement and empty headline area unchanged. Add slow handheld drift, background light sweep, small foreground particle motion, one clean reveal beat at second 4, no generated captions, no watermark.
Cinematic scene: Animate the attached environment still with controlled camera language. Begin exactly on the source image, then use a slow dolly forward, mild parallax between foreground and background, wind motion only on cloth and hair, stable horizon, no new characters, no sudden scene cut.

Кейс 1: camera language для cinematic still

Keep the composition intact and add one camera path plus a few environmental beats.

Prompt: Animate this still as a cinematic tutorial opener. Preserve the full composition and subject scale. Add a slow dolly forward, gentle parallax in the background, slight light movement across the main subject, and one subtle focus pull near the end. No new objects, no scene cut, no text.

Кейс 2: first-frame planning из reference image

Lifestyle still with camera LCD framing — This first-party image makes first-frame preservation easy to explain because people, couch, LCD screen, and room layout all need stable roles.

For lifestyle clips, name what the source image controls before adding small believable motion.

Prompt: Animate this reference-style lifestyle image as a nostalgic 6-second shot. Keep the couple, couch, camera LCD framing, and room layout stable. Add tiny handheld camera drift, soft ambient light flicker, natural blinking, and a slow rack focus from the LCD screen to the people. No identity drift, no extra people, no subtitles.

Пример: от still image к video prompt

Brief

A skincare bottle still needs a 6-second launch teaser. Bottle shape, label, cap color, and top headline space must stay stable.

Prompt version 1

Animate the attached skincare bottle image as a 6-second premium launch teaser. Begin exactly from the source frame. Preserve bottle shape, cap color, label position, shadow, and empty top-third headline space. Add a slow 15-degree camera orbit, soft rim-light sweep, subtle reflection movement on the bottle, and mild background parallax. No new text, no logo distortion, no extra objects, no scene cut.

First revision

If identity drifts, strengthen preservation and reduce motion. If the clip is flat, keep the frame lock and add one timed beat.

Ошибки и исправления

Failure mode	Fix first	Avoid
Identity drift	Add first-frame lock and protected details.	More motion.
Random camera	Use one clear camera verb.	Stacking every move.
New objects	Add negative constraints.	New story beats.
Broken text	Reserve clean space for editing.	Final captions in generation.
Static clip	Add one timed beat.	Rewriting source role.
