#### Text to Video

Enter a prompt that describes the scene, subject, motion, camera angle, and style. SeaArt generates a video from your description.

#### Image to Video

Upload an image as the starting or ending point, then add a prompt to describe how the scene should move.

#### Reference to Video

Reference to Video lets you provide images, videos, and audio as references for the model to follow. Each asset can control a different part of the result, such as character identity, visual consistency, motion, camera movement, or sound.

* @Image - use images to keep characters, props, costumes, scenes, or visual style consistent. Images can also define the starting and ending frames when needed.
* @Video - use a reference video for action or camera movement.
* @Audio - add an audio clip to guide the sound or rhythm.

You can combine multiple reference types in one prompt. For example, use @Image 1 to keep the character's appearance consistent, @Video 1 to apply a camera movement, and @Audio 1 to set the rhythm of the scene.

#### Edit Video

Upload a 4- to 30-second video, then use text or image inputs to edit the original footage, switch perspectives, and change the visual style.
