01Grok Imagine example

A summer leap, animated by Grok Imagine Video

A generated photo of a woman leaping through a sprinkler became a six-second handheld shot with sound: the kind of energetic moment Grok Imagine is made for.

Grok Imagine 1.5 · Image to video

She lands in the sprinkler spray and laughs, droplets sparkle in slow motion, handheld camera follows her across the lawn.

Made in VlogMe Video Studio with Grok Imagine 1.5: image to video, 6 seconds, with sound. The source still was generated in Image Studio with Seedream 5.0 Pro, and the prompt above is the one used for this clip.

After you sign in with Google or an email link, VlogMe opens Video Studio with Grok Imagine Video selected and shows the credit cost before you generate.

  1. Choose the supported starting image, frames or references.

  2. Describe the action, camera movement and visual consistency you need.

  3. Set an available duration and aspect ratio, then review the credit estimate.

  4. Check motion, identity, timing and artifacts in the finished clip.

Grok Imagine: questions answered

What is Grok Imagine Video best for?

Scroll-stopping social moments: hooks, reactions, memes and UGC-style shots that need energy and sound more than strict continuity. If a character must look identical across many shots, consider Seedance 2.0 or Kling 3.0 Pro.

Can I use Grok Imagine inside VlogMe?

Yes. Grok Imagine Video runs inside VlogMe Video Studio. The form on this page opens it with the model already selected, so you can check the settings before you generate.

How do I access Grok Imagine Video?

Any account can use this model when its credit wallet covers the estimate shown before generation. A subscription is optional and only replenishes credits regularly.

What are the main limits?

It depends on the workflow: image to video (Grok Imagine 1.5) and text to video go up to 15 seconds at 720p, while edits take source clips of up to 8 seconds.

How much does Grok Imagine Video cost?

Priced in credits per clip, by its length and settings. VlogMe shows the exact credit price before you submit, and nothing is generated until you confirm.

Can Grok Imagine edit a clip I already have?

Yes, if it is short: video edits work on clips of up to 8 seconds, so trim a longer video first, then describe the change you want.

How do I write a prompt for a hook?

Describe one action that lands in the first second (a jump, a reveal, a reaction), then the camera and the sound: 'handheld, close, laughter and splashing'. Grok Imagine favours energy over exact choreography, so one clear beat per clip works better than a sequence.

Does Grok Imagine keep my photo's framing?

Yes. Image to video on Grok Imagine 1.5 keeps the framing of the source, so crop the photo to the aspect ratio you will publish before you upload it.
