A massive alien spaceship, miles long and covered in glowing blue circuits, slowly rises from the East River in Manhattan. Water cascades off its hull as it ascends past the Brooklyn Bridge. Helicopters scatter, car alarms blare across the city. The camera captures this from a rooftop in DUMBO, showing the ship dwarfing the entire skyline as golden sunset light reflects off its surface. Thunderous rumbling, water crashing, distant sirens.
Bamse, the world's strongest bear, a cartoon brown bear wearing blue overalls and a blue knit cap, lifts an enormous boulder over his head and hurls it across a sunny Swedish meadow. Wildflowers scatter in the wind. His friends, a small rabbit and a turtle with a shell full of gadgets, cheer from behind a wooden fence. Bright, colorful 2D animation style with thick outlines. Cheerful music, a triumphant fanfare, birds chirping.
Motorcycle racing through traffic at dangerous speeds
Tight close-up portrait of a Gen Z fashion model, early twenties, dewy glass-skin complexion with a light dusting of faux freckles, glossy bitten-lip stain in a muted berry tone, fluffy laminated brows, and a single pearl-studded graphic liner flick in chrome silver across one eyelid. Her hair is slicked back into a sleek low bun with two soft face-framing tendrils, small silver butterfly clips catching the light. She wears oversized vintage-style chrome chandelier earrings and a sheer mesh high-neck top layered under a cropped leather moto jacket. The camera holds an extreme close-up on her face, then slowly arcs around her in a subtle 45-degree orbit as she tilts her chin down, cuts her eyes directly into the lens with a confident deadpan stare, and exhales softly. A gentle breeze lifts the loose strands of hair across her cheekbone. Lighting is soft neon-tinged — cool lavender key light from the left blending into a warm peach rim light from the right, creating a duotone gradient across her skin. Background is an out-of-focus wash of deep magenta and teal bokeh. Cinematic editorial fashion aesthetic, shallow depth of field, 85mm lens compression, subtle film grain, photorealistic, 24fps, reminiscent of a modern i-D Magazine or Vogue Beauty film.
Cinematic drone footage of a dragon made of living fire soaring over a frozen Nordic fjord at twilight. Its wings trail streams of flame that melt the ice below, creating swirling clouds of steam. The dragon banks sharply and breathes a column of fire across the mountainside, igniting the snow in brilliant orange and gold. Northern lights shimmer green and purple in the sky above. Thunderous wingbeats, crackling fire, hissing steam, a deep otherworldly growl.

Kling Video 3.0

Generate cinematic videos up to 15 seconds long from text prompts or images. Kling Video 3.0 improves on previous versions with longer output, stronger consistency across shots, and native audio generation including lip-synced dialogue.

What it does

Kling Video 3.0 turns text descriptions or still images into video clips. The model generates videos between 3 and 15 seconds — a significant jump from the 10-second limit of earlier versions. It handles realistic scenes, stylized content, and complex multi-step actions within a single generation.

You can also generate native audio alongside the video, including dialogue with lip sync, sound effects, and ambient sound — all in one pass. Outputs are .mp4 in Standard, Pro, or 4K.

How to use it

Everything happens in the Director bar at the bottom of the page. The model supports two main input modes — the images you attach pick which one runs. There is no separate mode label on the form.

  • Text to video — describe what you want to see. Skip start/end frames and character images. The model generates visuals (and optionally audio) from your description.
  • Image to video — upload a starting image and describe the motion you want. You can also provide an end image to guide where the video should land.
  • Settings — Standard, Pro, or 4K; duration 3–15 seconds; ratio 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1 (ignored when a start image is set); audio on or off.
  • Cook — the price in the button is mode × duration (and audio). Closing the tab after cook starts is fine; we email you when the clip is ready.

Multi-shot mode

For videos with multiple scenes, switch the Director to Multi-Scene. Each shot has a prompt and a duration. You can define up to 5 shots, with a minimum of 1 second per shot. The total duration of all shots must equal the clip length (3–15 seconds).

[
  {"prompt": "A woman walks through a sunlit forest", "duration": 5},
  {"prompt": "She stops and looks up at the canopy", "duration": 3},
  {"prompt": "Sunlight breaks through the leaves", "duration": 2}
]

Writing effective prompts

Structure your prompts to cover:

  • Scene setting — where and when the action happens, lighting conditions.
  • Subject details — what characters or objects appear, how they look.
  • Motion — what happens, how things move, camera behavior.
  • Audio (if enabled) — dialogue in quotation marks, ambient sounds, sound effects.

Example: A chef in a busy kitchen plates a dish with careful precision, steam rising from the food. Camera slowly pushes in on the plate. Sizzling sounds, kitchen chatter in the background, the chef says "Perfect."
