Grok Imagine Video v1.5

Stills with motion and synced audio

Turn a still into a short clip with native synchronized audio—better motion and physics than the earlier Grok Imagine Video line. In Studio AI’s image-to-video flow, upload a frame, describe the move, and pick duration up to 15 seconds with 480p, 720p, or 1080p output.

How to use

Upload a still, describe motion and audio mood, choose duration and resolution, then generate and download—three steps from frame to shareable clip.

Product benefits

Use Grok Imagine Video v1.5 when you need expressive motion, synced sound, and flexible clip length from a single approved still—before you commit to a heavier cinematic pass.

Open image-to-video

Native audio generated with the picture

v1.5 builds synchronized sound in the same pass as the video—ambient tone, effects, and dialogue land with the motion instead of bolting audio on later.

Clips up to 15 seconds for real story beats

Choose 5, 10, or 15 second outputs when a quick spike is not enough—room for a camera move, reaction, or product reveal without switching models.

480p to 1080p as your review stage needs it

Draft at lighter resolutions, then step up to 720p or 1080p when stakeholders need sharper motion and texture—all inside the same Grok Imagine Video v1.5 workflow.
