Source-video transformation
Use a source video and a written direction to create a new video version.
Choose the source-video workflow when an uploaded clip provides the movement and timing you want to begin from. Add the supported video, describe the visual transformation, then inspect the generated version as a new result before reuse.
- Start with
- A supported source video
- Direct with
- A written transformation direction
- Review
- Motion, timing, and changed visible details
Make the visual job concrete
These local references are unique to this page and help turn a broad search into a reviewable visual direction.
Every card identifies whether it is a verified model-family example or a visual reference. Reference cards are not model benchmarks or before-and-after claims.
Opening scene and action
Use the opening frame, visible action, and setting to define the first beat of the video prompt.
Reference direction, not a model output
Local ImagineClip visual reference. It is not presented as a model-specific result.
Camera movement and pacing
Use one deliberate camera path and a readable pace to guide the motion through the scene.

What a source-video workflow helps you preserve and change
01
A movement-led starting point
Use an approved source clip when its movement or timing gives the next version a useful foundation.
02
A specific visual transformation
Explain what should change in the new version, such as scene treatment, material feeling, or overall visual direction.
03
A source-aware review step
Compare the result with the source clip before relying on continuity, product details, or exact visible information.

How to create a video-to-video variation
Start from an approved source clip, then keep the written transformation focused enough to make the next version easy to evaluate.
- 01
Choose an approved source clip
Upload a video you are allowed to use and confirm that its motion and timing suit the next direction.
- 02
Describe the intended transformation
State the scene, visual treatment, or material direction that should change in the new version.
- 03
Use the available source-video controls
Select the compatible model and only the duration, quality, or other controls it makes available for source-video work.
- 04
Inspect the generated version
Check that motion, timing, visible text, people, objects, and source-derived details are suitable before publishing.
[03]
Choose the kind of video transformation
Source-video transformation and character motion transfer are different workflows. Select the one that matches the input you actually have.

Source video is guidance, not a locked copy
- A source clip does not guarantee exact preservation
- The generated version can change visual details, so it should not be treated as a frame-accurate edit of the uploaded clip.
- Input and output limits are model-specific
- Supported file types, source-video limits, duration, quality, and other controls vary by the active workflow.
- Only upload video you have permission to use
- You are responsible for the rights, permissions, and publishability of every source clip and the final result.

Video to video generator FAQ
- What is a video-to-video generator?
- A video-to-video workflow starts from a supported source clip and uses a written direction to create a new generated version. The result should be reviewed as a new video, not as an exact edit of the source.
- Can I transform an uploaded video in ImagineClip?
- Yes. ImagineClip includes a source-video workflow for compatible video models. Upload requirements and available output controls are shown in the active workspace.
- Will the new video keep every object and frame from the source?
- No. The source guides the generation, but visible details can change. Inspect important objects, people, text, branding, and timing before use.
- Can I use any online video as a source?
- Only upload video you are allowed to use for the intended project. You are responsible for securing the required rights and permissions.
