Kling V3 Motion Control on AI Compare Hub

Kling V3 Motion Control by KwaiVGI transfers choreography, gestures, and motion sequences from one video onto a character you define with a single reference image. Output is 720p (Standard) or 1080p (Pro), with up to 10 seconds in image orientation or 30 seconds in video orientation. Ideal for dance covers, motion-driven character animation, and re-staging existing performances with new subjects.

What you can create

• Dance and choreography covers

  Pick a dance reference video, supply a single image of your character, and Kling V3 Motion Control re-performs the choreography with that character. Great for dance challenges, music video drafts, mascot dances, and "what if X danced like Y" social content.

• Gesture transfer for explainers

  Re-stage presenter gestures, sign-language sequences, and instructional movement onto a new character defined by a single image. Useful for localizing existing video assets to new on-screen talent without re-shooting.

• Sports moves and athletic motion

  Transfer skateboard tricks, martial arts forms, golf swings, and other sport-specific motion onto a character of your choice. Use it to visualize technique, create training content, or produce stylized versions of athletic moments.

• Stylized character performance

  Drop a hand-drawn or stylized character into a real-world motion clip and Kling V3 Motion Control animates them to match the reference performance. Great for indie animation, character concept tests, and brand-mascot motion design.

Why creators choose Kling V3 Motion Control

• One image is enough for the character

  No motion-capture setup, no rigged 3D model, no skeletal data — just a single reference image. The model maps the reference video's motion onto the new character while preserving the character's appearance and outfit.

• Two orientations for two scenarios

  Use image orientation (max 10s) when you want a portrait-style framing of your character performing the motion. Use video orientation (max 30s) when you want longer scenes that follow the reference video's full timeline.

• Optional sound from the source video

  Toggle "keep original sound" to carry audio from the reference motion video into the output — useful for dance covers and music-driven motion where the soundtrack and movement need to stay in sync.

• Two pricing tiers

  Standard mode (720p) costs 35 cr/sec for everyday motion-transfer drafts and social content. Pro mode (1080p) costs 54 cr/sec when you need broadcast-quality output. The optional text prompt for background and camera direction does not affect the credit cost.

How to generate your first motion-transfer video

1. Pick your reference motion video. Upload the source clip whose motion you want to transfer. Clear, well-lit motion with a single subject works best. The reference video's length and your character_orientation setting determine the maximum output duration.
2. Provide your character image. Upload a single full-body or portrait image of the character that should perform the motion. The character's identity, outfit, and proportions are preserved through the output.
3. Configure mode, orientation, and prompt. Pick Standard (720p) or Pro (1080p), choose image orientation (≤10s) or video orientation (≤30s), and toggle keep-original-sound. Optionally add a prompt to direct background, camera, or stylistic details. Generate and review.

Common questions

What is Kling V3 Motion Control?

Kling V3 Motion Control is KwaiVGI's video-to-video motion-transfer model, available via the Replicate API. It takes a reference motion video plus a single character image and produces a new clip in which the character performs the reference motion. Output is 720p (Standard) or 1080p (Pro), up to 10s (image orientation) or 30s (video orientation).

What inputs are required?

A character reference image and a reference motion video are both required. An optional text prompt can guide background, camera, and stylistic details that aren't dictated by the reference video itself.

How is the output duration determined?

Output duration is bounded by the reference video length and the selected character_orientation. image orientation caps at 10 seconds; video orientation caps at 30 seconds. The credit quote uses the reference video's actual duration when available.

How much does Kling V3 Motion Control cost in credits?

Standard mode (720p) costs 35 credits per second. Pro mode (1080p) costs 54 credits per second. A 10-second clip in Standard is ~350 credits; a 10-second clip in Pro is ~540 credits.

What's the difference between image and video orientation?

image orientation produces portrait-style output focused on the character (max 10 seconds). video orientation follows the reference video's full framing for longer sequences (max 30 seconds). Pick image orientation for short character-focused clips and video orientation for longer scene-style outputs.

Can I keep the audio from the reference video?

Yes — enable "keep original sound" to carry audio from the reference motion video into the output. This is especially useful for dance covers, music-driven motion, and any case where the original soundtrack should stay in sync with the transferred motion.
