Motion Transfer AI
Motion Transfer AI creates animated clips by applying movement from a reference video to a character photo. Users can upload a motion video or select a template, then add the character image; the studio also indicates support for up to 30 reference images. Listed models include Kling 2.6 Motion Control, Kling 3.0 Motion Control, Wan 2.2 Animate Move, Wan 2.2 Animate Replace, Seedance 2.0, and Seedance 2.5. Users can preview results in My creations, download clips, and reopen available results from account history. Reference videos are described as 4–30 seconds long, with the FAQ setting a maximum of 10 seconds for Kling Match photo and 30 seconds for Match video. The maker warns that facial details, clothing edges, lighting, and background objects may shift as the character moves, so generated clips need inspection. Model, resolution, and clip length affect credit use, and the workspace estimates usage before generation. The free Basic plan includes 18 one-time signup credits, with watermarked previews and downloads; watermark-free downloads require payment. Paid yearly-billed plans start at $8.30 a month.
