AI Video Generator: Commercial Short-Form Footage With Grok Imagine 1.5

AI video turns static product photos, character designs, room scenes, or storyboard frames into short clips you can actually watch. CicPic runs text-to-video and multi-reference generation on Grok Imagine 1.5 so operations, media buying, and brand teams can settle on a motion direction sooner.

Text to video and image to video

Write the shot in Chinese, or upload reference images to lock the subject, product appearance, or visual style, then generate footage with movement, lighting changes, and scene atmosphere.

  • Chinese video prompts work as written
  • Reference images produce video of the same subject
  • Upload up to 7 reference images
  • Landscape and portrait short-video ratios

A cheaper way to draft commercial video

Before a shoot or an edit, generate product demos, ad storyboards, recommendation clips, and brand short films to test direction, which cuts back-and-forth and the cost of reshooting.

  • Animated product showcase shots
  • In-feed ad video assets
  • Short recommendation clips for Xiaohongshu
  • Brand visual and ambient space shots

How to write a video prompt

Video prompts need more than image prompts: camera language, subject motion, pacing, and sound. Stating how the camera travels, how the subject changes, and how long the shot runs gives steadier output.

  • Name the push-in, orbit, tracking, or overhead move
  • Describe subject action and emotional pacing
  • Specify sound effects or dialogue when audio is needed
  • With reference images, state which features to keep
