Kling Motion Control is an AI motion control and motion transfer tool powered by Kling 3.0, focused on turning static images or videos into dynamic animations with realistic motion. Without motion capture equipment, users can make characters in photos dance, walk, or perform various actions.
Purpose This tool is used to transfer motion from a reference video onto a static character image to generate character animation. It is suitable for animating photos of people, illustrations, anime figures, or product images, and also targets production needs such as film and television previsualization, storyboards, social content, and advertising.
Main Capabilities
- Motion transfer: Extract motion data from a reference video, apply it to a static character image, generate animation, and try to maintain the character's visual identity consistency.
- Motion precision: Supports full-body motion capture, including fine hand gestures, facial expressions, and subtle body language.
- Reference video: Supports uploading 3 to 30 second reference videos, and built-in templates can also be selected.
- Character orientation mode: Two orientation modes are available: match the video composition or preserve the image composition.
- Audio retention: Optionally retain the source video audio, suitable for lip-sync animation and music videos.
- Prompt-guided optimization: Text prompts can be used to optimize the background, lighting, and scene composition, combining motion transfer with scene generation.
- Identity consistency: Maintain the character's appearance, style, and features consistently across animation frames.
- Output quality: Can generate animations suitable for commercial, film and television, advertising, and professional content production.
How to Use
- Upload a character photo: Photos of people, illustrations, anime characters, or product images are all acceptable, with a minimum size of 512x512px and a maximum of 3850px.
- Select a reference video: Upload a 3-30 second reference video, or select a built-in template. The AI will analyze full-body motion, including hand gestures and facial expressions.
- Set orientation and quality: Image mode matches the photo composition, up to 10 seconds; video mode matches the reference composition, up to 30 seconds. Standard is 3 credits/second, and Pro is 4 credits/second.
Use Cases
- Character animation and illustration: Bring static characters and illustrations to life with real-person motion references for animation, storyboards, and previsualization.
- Viral social content: Apply trending dances and gestures to cartoon characters for TikTok, Instagram, and short videos.
- Brand and product videos: Present brand mascots and product images with realistic motion for advertising and marketing campaigns.
- Indie games and film and television: Produce character animation at a fraction of the cost of traditional methods, suitable for individual developers and small studios.
