Should I use text or image to video?
Use image-to-video for a real product or approved render. Text-to-video is better for early visual exploration.

Framing and pacing study
Where this works
Use image-to-video when the exact product silhouette matters. A clean first frame with negative space usually gives the model more room to create believable reflections, parallax, and controlled reveal motion.
Ready-to-use prompt
Premium product film of a translucent glass speaker on brushed aluminum, narrow white rim light travels across the edge while the camera makes a slow precise push-in, internal components remain aligned, cool studio background, subtle reflections, no extra objects, high material clarity
Three controls that matter.

02
Choose one light transition
03
Keep the camera move slow and linear
Questions, answered.
How do I reduce product distortion?
Use a clean first frame, avoid simultaneous rotation and zoom, and state which parts must remain fixed.
