What the video studio does
- Image to video. Start from your own picture, or from one you made in the image studio, and animate it with a sentence.
- Text to video, when you have no picture yet.
- Extend a clip, motion transfer, upscale and lipsync avatars, so a first render can become a finished piece in the same tab.
- Your own character. Train a LoRA on your reference images in the image studio, make stills of it, then animate them.
Models and what a clip costs
Credits for one standard five second clip on each video model, and how many such clips one month of Hosted or one €15 pack pays for:
| Model | Credits per clip | Hosted month | €15 pack |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTX-2 | 8,000 | 112 | 56 |
| Wan 2.2 Fast | 15,000 | 60 | 30 |
| MiniMax H3 | 20,000 | 45 | 22 |
| MiniMax H3 • Reference | 28,500 | 31 | 15 |
| Wan 2.2 720p | 40,000 | 22 | 11 |
| LTX 2.5 | 50,000 | 18 | 9 |
Longer clips, higher resolutions and extra steps such as upscaling draw more. The counts are alternatives, not a sum: the same credits pay for images and chat too.
How to start in three steps
- Take the Hosted plan at checkout, or buy a credit pack if a month is more than you want to commit. Card details go to Stripe and the payment is secured with 3D Secure.
- Open Create, choose Video and add your picture.
- Describe the motion, render, then extend or upscale the clip in the same place.
The honest limits
Clips are short: five seconds is the standard run, and longer clips cost more. Rendering happens on shared hardware, so a job can wait in a queue for a moment when the fleet is busy. Generated media is deleted after 7 days, so download what you want to keep. We never train on your pictures and never sell them.
Questions
How do I turn an image into a video online?
Open Create in the LU Cloud studio, choose Video, add your picture, write what should move and render. The clip renders on our GPUs and lands in your gallery, so a phone or a light laptop is enough.
How many clips do I get?
It depends on the model. The Hosted plan's 900,000 monthly credits make 18 to 112 short clips of five seconds: the most with LTX-2, the fewest with LTX 2.5. Images, chat and video share the same credits.
Can I try it without a subscription?
Yes. The €15 credit pack is a one-time purchase, enough for 9 to 56 short clips depending on the model, and its credits do not expire.
Can it make a video from text alone?
Yes. Text to video runs in the same studio. A start image simply gives you more control over how the clip looks.
