Image-to-Video with PixVerse v6
Animate any image into a 1-15 second video with PixVerse v6. Upload a first-frame image (JPEG, PNG or WEBP up to 20MB), describe the motion, and generate at 360p to 1080p with optional synchronized audio and multi-shot sequences — the output keeps your image's aspect ratio. From $0.02 per second.
What makes PixVerse v6 different
Your image, exactly as the first frame
Upload a JPEG, PNG or WEBP up to 20MB and PixVerse v6 uses it as the literal first frame — the output keeps your image's aspect ratio, so a vertical portrait stays vertical and an ultrawide render stays ultrawide. Then the prompt drives what happens next: action, camera moves, atmosphere.
Audio and multi-shot, even from a still
Both of v6's headline features work in image-to-video mode. Enable Generate Audio for synchronized BGM, sound effects and dialogue (a per-second surcharge from $0.008/s), or Multi-Shot to expand a single still into a sequence with scene transitions and camera changes generated in one pass.
1 to 15 seconds at draft-friendly prices
Any whole-second duration from 1 to 15. At $0.02 per second for 360p, a one-second motion test costs two cents — cheap enough to check whether an image animates well before committing to a 15-second 1080p render at $0.072/s. Everything is billed at provider cost with 0% markup.
Chain it after an image model
On a Scenetra board, wire any text-to-image node — Nano Banana 2, FLUX, Seedream — straight into a PixVerse v6 Image to Video node. Generate the perfect still, then animate it without leaving the canvas, and feed the result into the Extend node if you need a longer cut.

View model →Frequently asked questions
How does PixVerse v6 image-to-video work?+
Upload an image (JPEG, PNG or WEBP, up to 20MB) and write a prompt describing the motion — the model uses your image as the first frame and animates from it for 1-15 seconds. The output keeps the image's aspect ratio. On Scenetra, drop a PixVerse v6 Image to Video node on your board, connect or upload the image, and generate.
How much does PixVerse v6 image-to-video cost?+
The same as text-to-video: $0.02/s at 360p, $0.028/s at 540p, $0.036/s at 720p and $0.072/s at 1080p. A 5-second 720p animation is $0.18; a 10-second 1080p one is $0.72. Synchronized audio adds $0.008-$0.02 per second depending on resolution. Scenetra sells every generation at provider cost, 0% markup.
Can PixVerse v6 add sound to an animated photo?+
Yes. Enable the Generate Audio toggle and v6 generates background music, sound effects and dialogue synchronized to the animation. It's an opt-in per-second surcharge, so silent drafts stay at the base rate.
How should I prompt PixVerse v6 for image to video?+
Describe the motion, not the image — the model already sees your upload. Name the action, the camera move and the mood. With audio on, you can also describe the sound you want. Scenetra's board makes iteration cheap: test at 360p for $0.02/s, then re-render the winning prompt at 1080p.
Is PixVerse v6 image-to-video free to try?+
You can try it free through Scenetra: new accounts get free welcome credits and a 7-day trial. After that it's pay-per-generation — about $0.10 for a 5-second 360p clip — with no subscription required.
What if I want to control the last frame too?+
Use the PixVerse v6 Transition mode, which takes both a first-frame and a last-frame image and generates the video between them. And if you want to continue a finished clip, the Extend mode picks up from its last frame.
