What Grok Imagine is for

Short forms, made quickly. Grok Imagine bills by the second from a single second up, which suits reaction shots, loops and quick social cuts — and animating a still in one pass: set the image as the start frame and describe what happens next.

It renders up to 1080p in five native formats, 4:3 and 3:4 included.

How to prompt it

→Short clip, short prompt: one subject, one action, one camera note. Three seconds holds one beat.
→From a still: set it as the start frame and describe only the motion — the image already carries the look.
→Grok Imagine reads no reference pictures, so your cast rides as text: describe characters concretely, or start from a frame of them.
→There is no seed: batch up to 4 takes and keep the best.
→Draft at 480p, finish at 1080p.

Where it sits in the lineup

On the Hobby plan, Grok Imagine is the quick, flexible option. For sound and reference pictures, pick Veo 3.1 Fast, Kling 3.0 or Seedance 2.0 Fast; for a move between a first and a last frame, Hailuo 3 Max. On Creator, Runway Gen-4.5 also animates a start frame, and adds a seed.
