Video Prompt
Use @Image1 for the product and @Image2 for the character. Create a 6-second photorealistic fashion runway video in one continuous shot. Preserve the model's face, long auburn hair, lavender turtleneck sweater, purple trousers, and mustard-yellow handbag with its gold chain. Keep the original architectural setting and natural daylight. 0–2s: The model takes one confident step forward. With the hand already holding the bag, she lifts it by the strap to waist height, slightly away from her body so the bag is clearly visible. 2–4.5s: Keeping the bag raised, she gracefully completes one full turn in place and finishes facing the camera. The handbag moves with her body, held slightly outward. The strap maintains realistic tension, the gold chain sways gently, and her hair and clothing follow the movement naturally. 4.5–6s: She settles into a steady pose and presents the bag slightly toward the camera, with its front facing the lens. The camera continuously dollies forward from the initial full-body framing, gradually centering on the handbag. End on a sharp close-up showing the yellow leather texture, stitching, and gold chain against a softly blurred background. Hold the final close-up steady for the last half-second. Fluid movement and a composed pace. Smooth camera movement, no cuts or sudden zooms. Keep the hands anatomically natural and the bag's shape and color consistent. No twisted straps, chain clipping, extra limbs, or added text.

What Is Reference to Video AI?
Reference to Video AI is an AI video generation tool that creates new videos using reference images, videos, audio, and a text prompt. It lets you build on your existing assets without describing every detail from scratch.
Each reference guides a different part of your video:
- Images: Product images and character photos define how your subjects look.
- Audio: Audio references guide voices, background music, or rhythm.
- Videos: Reference clips guide actions and camera movements.
Use your prompt to bring these elements together, specifying what to keep and what should happen in the new scene.
Reference Input

Video Prompt
Use @Image1 for the character. 15s continuous 24mm Steadicam shot, 148 BPM. 3D cartoon style. The hyperactive orange cat in a denim jacket runs a chaotic urban loop: apartment, balcony, garden, rooftop, alley, then back to bed. High-energy slapstick motion, no cuts, fast whip transitions. Lighting shifts from morning pink to warm amber. Expressive, clumsy, and energetic mood.
