# More video models

## Seedance Pro

*Multi-shot storytelling leader*

* **Strengths:** Great prompt adherence, native multi-shot capabilities with smooth transitions, cinematic camera movements
* **Weaknesses:** Performance issues with complex prompts, no native audio
* **Use cases:** Multi-shot marketing campaigns (e.g., UGC video), brand storytelling, educational narratives
* **Specs:** 480p-1080p resolution, 5-10 seconds, multiple aspect ratios

## Runway Gen4 Video

*Decent choice for creating professional-quality videos with consistent subjects and movie-like camera work.* 

* **Strengths:** Character consistency, product consistency, cinematic quality
* **Weaknesses:** Struggles with overly complex multi-element scenes, occasional visual glitches or hallucinations, worse than other state-of-the-art model
* **Use cases:** product videos (show a product in various lifestyle settings with perfect consistency), mascot animation (create consistent spokespersons or mascots across multiple video assets).
* **Specs:** 1080p resolution, 5s or 10s, multiple aspect ratios

## Hailuo 2 Pro

*Physics simulation specialist*

* **Strengths:** Exceptional physics simulation and environmental effects (water, fire, smoke), strong character consistency
* **Weaknesses:** No audio support, 10-second maximum duration, slower generation times
* **Use cases:** Physics-heavy product demos, viral social content, educational physics content
* **Specs:** 1080p resolution, 6-10 seconds, multiple aspect ratios

## Runway Aleph

AI-powered video editing and variation model

* **Strengths:** Easy text-based editing without traditional software, generates multiple camera angles and variations from single video, professional VFX capabilities (background removal, cinematic effects), simple prompt structure
* **Weaknesses:** Requires existing video input (can't generate from scratch), limited to 5-second clips, auto-crops to fit supported formats
* **Use cases:** Product placement in lifestyle footage, UGC ads with multiple camera angles, campaign A/B testing variations, removing unwanted logos or brand elements, adding VFX effects to existing footage
* **How to use effectively:** Keep prompts simple with two parts: action word ("add," "remove," "change," "replace," "re-light") + clear description of the change. Example: "Remove the person in the background" or "Change the lighting to golden hour"
* **Specs:** 1280x720 (HD) resolution, up to 5 seconds, auto-crops to supported aspect ratios: 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 21:9

## Kling 2.0

*Extended duration image-to-video*

* **Strengths:** Good image-to-video conversion, great character consistency
* **Weaknesses:** Much slower generation times, superseded by newer Kling 2.1, struggles with text in videos
* **Use cases:** Character animation
* **Specs:** 720p native, 5-10 seconds, multiple aspect ratios

## Vidu Q1

*Budget-friendly video generation with animation focus*

* **Strengths:** Fastest generation speed and lowest cost structure, excellent for anime-style content and character consistency
* **Weaknesses:** Limited to 5-second clips only, less competitive photorealistic quality
* **Use cases:** Social media content, anime/illustration videos, rapid prototyping
* **Specs:** 1080p resolution, 5 seconds max, multiple aspect ratios
