It excels at preserving image details like identity, layout, and text while adding realistic motion, camera movements, and scene progression based on cinematic prompts. Supports multi-shot generation, explicit motion instructions, flexible durations up to 15 seconds, and native audio when specified. Optimized for advertising, branded content, and realistic scene extensions with smooth transitions and narrative continuity. ## Example request Use the [Workbench](https://www.oxen.ai/ai/workbench?model=kling-video-o3-pro-reference-to-video) as a request builder: configure parameters for this model in the UI, then open the **API** tab to copy the exact cURL or Python call. This blocks until the video is ready (typically 5-15 minutes). Prefer **Async** or **Async with SSE** for anything beyond quick experimentation. See the [video generation reference](/inference-api/reference/video_generation) for more details. ```bash cURL theme={null} curl -X POST https://hub.oxen.ai/api/ai/videos/generate \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $OXEN_API_KEY" \ -d '{ "model": "kling-video-o3-pro-reference-to-video" }' ``` ```python Python theme={null} import os import requests response = requests.post( "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/ai/videos/generate", headers={ "Content-Type": "application/json", "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['OXEN_API_KEY']}", }, json={ "model": "kling-video-o3-pro-reference-to-video" }, ) response.raise_for_status() print(response.json()) ``` ```bash cURL theme={null} curl -X POST https://hub.oxen.ai/api/ai/videos/generate \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $OXEN_API_KEY" \ -d '{ "model": "kling-video-o3-pro-reference-to-video", "start_image_url": "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/repos/elau/assets/file/main/bloxy/bloxy_cropped_512x512.png", "tail_image_url": "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/repos/elau/assets/file/main/bloxy/bloxy_cropped_512x512.png", "input_image": [ "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/repos/elau/assets/file/main/bloxy/bloxy_cropped_512x512.png" ] }' ``` ```python Python theme={null} import os import requests response = requests.post( "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/ai/videos/generate", headers={ "Content-Type": "application/json", "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['OXEN_API_KEY']}", }, json={ "model": "kling-video-o3-pro-reference-to-video", "start_image_url": "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/repos/elau/assets/file/main/bloxy/bloxy_cropped_512x512.png", "tail_image_url": "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/repos/elau/assets/file/main/bloxy/bloxy_cropped_512x512.png", "input_image": [ "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/repos/elau/assets/file/main/bloxy/bloxy_cropped_512x512.png" ] }, ) response.raise_for_status() print(response.json()) ``` ```bash cURL theme={null} curl -X POST https://hub.oxen.ai/api/ai/videos/generate \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $OXEN_API_KEY" \ -d '{ "model": "kling-video-o3-pro-reference-to-video", "start_image_url": "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/repos/elau/assets/file/main/bloxy/bloxy_cropped_512x512.png", "tail_image_url": "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/repos/elau/assets/file/main/bloxy/bloxy_cropped_512x512.png", "input_image": [ "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/repos/elau/assets/file/main/bloxy/bloxy_cropped_512x512.png" ], "aspect_ratio": "16:9", "generate_audio": false }' ``` ```python Python theme={null} import os import requests response = requests.post( "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/ai/videos/generate", headers={ "Content-Type": "application/json", "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['OXEN_API_KEY']}", }, json={ "model": "kling-video-o3-pro-reference-to-video", "start_image_url": "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/repos/elau/assets/file/main/bloxy/bloxy_cropped_512x512.png", "tail_image_url": "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/repos/elau/assets/file/main/bloxy/bloxy_cropped_512x512.png", "input_image": [ "https://hub.oxen.ai/api/repos/elau/assets/file/main/bloxy/bloxy_cropped_512x512.png" ], "aspect_ratio": "16:9", "generate_audio": false }, ) response.raise_for_status() print(response.json()) ``` See the [async queue reference](/inference-api/reference/async_queue) for more details. ```bash cURL theme={null} # Enqueue, capture the generation id.
