1. Get started

Use RunComfy's API to run kling/kling-3.0/4k/image-to-video. For accepted inputs and outputs, see the model's schema.

    "prompt": "Bring this still photograph to life in native 4K with hyper-detailed motion. The young American ceramic artist's hands gently cradle and shape the spinning gray clay vessel — the wheel rotates with smooth controlled motion, the soft clay walls rise and slim under her thumbs, a thin glistening ribbon of water trickles continuously down the side, and a few fine droplets of clay-water flick outward in slow motion catching the light. Loose strands of her dirty-blonde hair sway gently, her chest rises and falls with steady calm breathing, eyes stay focused, a small subtle smile tugs at her lips, the linen apron shifts almost imperceptibly. Behind her, dust motes drift through the warm shaft of honey golden-hour light streaming through the multi-pane windows, dried botanicals sway slightly, and faint shadows shift across the whitewashed brick wall as the sun moves. The camera slowly pushes in from a tight medium close-up to an extreme close-up of the wet clay vessel and her glistening fingers, then drifts back up to her face. Ambient sound: the soft whir of the pottery wheel, water droplets, the rustle of linen, distant Portland street ambience, and a warm vinyl indie-folk record playing low. Native-4K hyper-detailed textures — wet clay surface sheen, fingertip ridges, water droplets, hair strands, linen apron weave, brick grain, wood shelf knots — shot on RED Komodo 6K, 50mm anamorphic, shallow depth of field, Kodak Portra color science.",

4. File inputs

Hosted file (URL)

Provide a publicly reachable HTTPS URL. Ensure the host allows server-side fetches (no login/cookies required) and isn't rate-limited or blocking bots. Recommended limits: images ≤ 50 MB (~4K), videos ≤ 100 MB (~2–5 min @ 720p). Prefer stable or pre-signed URLs for private assets.
