character1 is the rain-soaked harbour quay at night. character2, an adult woman in a long black trench coat over a black silk camisole, walks slowly along the quay toward the camera through light rain, pushing wet curls back from her face, her eyes on the lens. The coat swings open with each step. Neon reflections ripple on the wet stones, cranes and a moored ship in the distance. Low-angle slow push-in, cinematic, film grain.
Same model, starting from this prompt. Other settings use their defaults.
Why this prompt works
A clip and a still in one request. The five-second harbour clip in `reference_video_urls` becomes character1 and the portrait in `reference_image_urls` becomes character2, because clips are numbered before stills. The clip's seconds are billed with the output; sound is off here, so the picture is ready for your own mix.

What it does
resolution
720p
720p or 1080p, default 720p. It sets the per-second rate and how long the task takes, and both resolutions accept all five aspect ratios.
aspect_ratio
16:9
16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3 or 3:4, default 16:9, available at both resolutions. It is chosen per request rather than inherited from a reference, so one set of references can be delivered in several shapes.
duration_seconds
5
Any whole number from 2 to 10, default 5. It is the main driver of the price, and also where likeness drifts: check the last second of a long clip before committing to that length.
