### Composition brief

“Plan the shot as a still, then hand the motion to the model.”

## How to write a Grok Imagine Video prompt

1. **Write the shot**
   Describe the subject, motion, and camera path in one or two concrete sentences.
2. **Add a start image if needed**
   Upload a still to animate; Made routes the request to the image-to-video endpoint.
3. **Choose format and length**
   Pick one of seven aspect ratios and any duration from 1 to 15 seconds.
4. **Generate and review**
   Check motion and continuity, then refine one instruction at a time — short cheap takes make iteration fast.

## What Grok Imagine Video responds well to

### Prompt for these jobs

- Low-cost clips at 8 credits a second
- Flexible durations from 1 to 15 seconds
- Seven aspect ratios including 3:2 and 2:3
- Animating stills with believable motion

### Check the output for

- Made pins output to 720p; the provider’s 480p tier is not exposed, and 1080p needs another model or an upscale pass.
- It is the first-generation Grok video model; Grok Imagine Video 1.5 delivers stronger motion and generated audio at a higher rate.

Iteration is cheap here: Grok Imagine Video costs 8 credits / second, so rewriting a prompt and rerunning it is a normal part of the workflow, not a budget decision. See the [full Grok Imagine Video pricing breakdown](https://www.made.app/price-sheet/grok-imagine-video).

Made pins output to 720p. The provider also serves a cheaper 480p tier that is not exposed.
