Kling 2.1
Turn a photo into a short moving shot, or start from text with Master.
When to choose it
Kling 2.1 suits a straightforward shot: a head turn, a walk or a camera move past a product. Its versions differ in what they accept. Standard and Pro start from a photo; Master can start from text. A transition with a specified ending needs Pro and a second image.
- A focused set of controls for one clear action.
- Pro anchors both the opening and the ending image.
Modes and settings
- Standard: one photo. Pro: one or two photos. Master: text or one photo.
- Choose 5 or 10 seconds. A separate negative-prompt field is available.

- Keep the object, angle and lighting compatible when preparing two frames.
Example: animate a portrait
5 seconds. The person in the photo slowly looks away from the window toward the camera and smiles slightly. Their shoulders stay still; a draft barely moves their hair. Preserve the face and clothing. Locked camera, unchanged soft window light.
What to keep in mind
- Standard and Pro cannot start from text alone.
- Complex hand movements and sharp turns need close inspection.

FAQ
Why is a photo required?
Standard and Pro start from an image. Choose Master to generate without a photo.
Where can I add an ending frame?
In Pro, the second photo defines the ending. Standard and Master use one image.
Can I upload motion footage?
No. This creates motion from text and photos rather than transferring recorded choreography.
What belongs in the negative prompt?
Specific unwanted details, such as a blurred face or extra fingers. Do not repeat the full main prompt.
Can I choose seven seconds?
The options are 5 and 10 seconds. Trim the result for an exact edit length.
Is Master always better than Pro?
They serve different workflows. Choose by input and frame control first, then compare results on your own scene.
What changes the price?
It depends on version, quality and mode. The table prices one generation at the listed settings. Additional results, new attempts and chargeable input materials can increase the total.
Do I need a separate model subscription?
No. In Mixer AI, you top up one coin balance and use it for the tasks you need. You do not need a separate subscription to this model.
