Grok Imagine Video 1.5 visual examples

Explore the examples, compare the visual choices, and open a card for a prompt or input guide. Published source records and editorial reference prompts are distinguished below. File dimensions and duration describe the downloaded asset.

Prepare the input

Start with a scene brief. For editing or animation, add the matching reference inputs requested by the generator.

What to compare

Play the clip and inspect the beginning, middle and end. Compare the subject, motion, camera path and sound; a thumbnail cannot establish temporal consistency.

Example boundaries

These are selected external examples, not a promise that a prompt will reproduce the same result. Model versions, references and settings can change the outcome.

Source review: 2026-09-08. Preview dimensions are measured from the original files.

What Is Grok Imagine Video 1.5?

This model-specific workflow creates one short clip from either a text prompt or one uploaded image. It is useful when you want to direct subject movement, camera behavior, pacing, and atmosphere without leaving the current page.

Text to video from a written scene

Describe the subject, action, camera direction, and setting when you want to begin without a source frame.

Image to video from one approved frame

Upload one image up to 20 MB, then describe what should move while keeping the source composition recognizable.

Flexible short-clip timing

Choose any duration from 1 to 15 seconds. Longer clips and higher resolution consume more credits.

Six framing choices

Use auto, 1:1, 16:9, 9:16, 3:2, or 2:3 framing and select either 480p or 720p output.

Workflow

How to Generate a Video with Grok Imagine 1.5

Move from an idea or source frame to a playable result in three direct actions.

1

Choose text or image input

Write the full scene for text to video, or upload one clear source image for image to video.

2

Direct motion and framing

Describe subject motion and camera movement, then select duration, aspect ratio, and resolution.

3

Generate, review, and download

Submit the task, wait for the returned clip, inspect the motion, and download or revise the direction.

Where Grok Imagine 1.5 Fits

Use the same short-video workflow when the final task is defined by motion, framing, and a clip-length result.

Animate a product or campaign still

Start with one approved hero image and add a push-in, rotation, reveal, lighting change, or environmental motion.

Prototype one story shot

Test a single action, reaction, or camera move before combining selected clips in an external editor.

Create a short social hook

Choose vertical, square, or landscape framing for an opening beat, teaser, reveal, or post-ready motion concept.

Explore stylized motion

Animate illustration, character art, surreal scenes, or concept frames while keeping the source image as the visual anchor.

Prompting, Settings, and Limitations

Use the controls shown in the generator as the source of truth before spending credits.

Name the subject movement, camera movement, pacing, and atmosphere. Avoid stacking several conflicting actions into one short clip.

The current workflow accepts one image up to 20 MB. A strong composition gives the motion prompt a more stable subject and setting.

This integration currently exposes the Preview profile at 480p or 720p for 1 to 15 seconds. It does not expose xAI consumer features such as native 1080p, multiple image references, or voice references.

Grok Imagine 1.5 Video FAQ

Answers about the current generator and its limits.

Can I generate from text and from an image?

Yes. Text to video begins with a written scene. Image to video accepts one source image and a motion prompt for the returned clip.

Which durations and resolutions are available?

Choose any duration from 1 to 15 seconds and either 480p or 720p. Available aspect ratios are auto, 1:1, 16:9, 9:16, 3:2, and 2:3.

Does this page include every feature from xAI?

No. This page follows the currently integrated Kie Preview profile. Features not present in the controls, including 1080p and multi-reference or voice-reference input, are not available here.

Can I copy the exact prompts from the X examples?

The embedded posts do not publish the exact prompts. Use them to study motion, framing, and scene structure, then write an original prompt in the generator above.

How do credits and failed generations work?

Sign in to use the credits on your account. The current cost appears before submission, and a failed generation is refunded automatically.
