# Pika Canonical page: https://fuser.studio/models/pika Pika in Fuser generates 5-10 second video at up to 1080p from a text prompt or an image. Chain it with image, sound and upscale nodes on the same canvas. ## Specs | Spec | Value | | --- | --- | | Inputs | Prompt (text), Negative Prompt (text), Image Prompt (image) | | Output | video | | Duration | 5s, 10s | | Resolution | 720p, 1080p | | Aspect ratios | 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:5, 5:4, 3:2, 2:3 | | Cost | 276–1,240 credits per run | Direct cinematic scenes with physics-aware material dynamics, deliberate camera motion, and seamless 10-second temporal consistency Creator: Pika Labs [Animate scene](https://app.fuser.studio) ## How Pika works Draft your visual scene, configure camera behavior and physical interactions, and export high-resolution motion sequences in seconds. ### Define Scene or Keyframe Write a descriptive text prompt specifying action and lighting, or upload a reference image to serve as the initial video frame. ### Set Motion Parameters Select your target duration of 5 or 10 seconds, choose 720p or 1080p resolution, and set your canvas aspect ratio. ### Render Cinematic Video Synthesize the motion sequence with stable temporal coherence and download the finished video asset. ## What Pika is good at From text prompts to keyframe animation, produce physics-compliant motion with precise camera trajectories and dual-resolution rendering. ### Reference-Accurate Image Animation Animate static character concepts, editorial photographs, or brand assets with the Image-to-Video endpoint while preserving original color palettes, lighting direction, and facial traits across the entire sequence. ### Physics-Aware Dynamic Collisions Render fluid splashes, shattering glass, and weight-driven interactions with realistic velocity and mass, maintaining coherent surface reflections and droplet behavior throughout the motion path. ### Cinematic Camera Navigation Direct deliberate dolly, pan, and orbital cinematography that maintains perspective stability and natural lighting roll-off without temporal warping across 5-second or 10-second takes. ### Dual-Resolution Video Production Draft rapid motion tests at 720p resolution and export finished commercial assets at 1080p across seven standard aspect ratios, including 16:9 landscape and 9:16 vertical framing. ## Made with Pika Explore cinematic camera tracks, material simulations, and editorial motion sequences generated across text-to-video and image-to-video workflows. ### Editorial fashion lookbook sequence ### Fluid dynamics and liquid simulation ### Industrial concept design showcase ### Atmospheric cinematic narrative beat ### Commercial beauty packaging visualizer ## What people build with Pika Discover how creative directors, commercial visualizers, and digital artists use physics-aware video generation to produce publication-ready motion. ### Fashion Editorial and Lookbooks Bring studio lookbooks and editorial fashion portraits into motion with realistic fabric physics and controlled lighting continuity. ### Product Design and Commercials Produce premium visualizers for physical hardware, cosmetics, and packaged goods highlighting textures, reflections, and fluid dynamics. ### Cinematic Film Establishing Shots Generate atmospheric establishing shots, environmental mood studies, and key narrative transitions with cinematic camera trajectories. ### Social Media Short-Form Teasers Create scroll-stopping 9:16 vertical motion clips for product drops and campaign teasers with dynamic subject movement. ### Architectural Spatial Studies Translate interior architectural layouts and spatial lighting concepts into smooth continuous walkthroughs and orbital pans. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is the difference between Text-to-Video and Image-to-Video? Choose Text-to-Video to build scenes entirely from conceptual text prompts with full compositional freedom. Choose Image-to-Video when you have an existing visual asset, character still, or product render that must preserve its starting frame, lighting, and palette exactly. ### Which variant should I use to animate an existing character or product render? Use Image-to-Video for guaranteed asset consistency, as it anchors the sequence to your initial frame. While Text-to-Video generates original scenes from text, Image-to-Video guarantees that wardrobe, lighting, product details, and character features match your source image throughout the camera move. ### What types of motion and scenes is the model best at generating? The model excels at cinematic camera movements like slow dollies and orbital pans, material physics such as fluid splashes and fabric flow, and high-fidelity video storyboards up to 10 seconds. It renders natural lighting roll-off and coherent spatial depth across seven aspect ratios. ### When should I avoid using this model? Avoid scenes requiring legible typography, intricate hand and finger interactions, or multiple independent characters moving simultaneously. Fast camera maneuvers like whip pans and instant snap zooms will also cause structural smearing and texture collapse. ### How should I choose between 720p and 1080p output resolutions? Select 720p at 5-second durations for rapid motion concept tests and storyboard drafts. Switch to 1080p at 10 seconds for high-fidelity brand commercial deliverables, cinematic establishing shots, and final visual assets. ## Try Pika on Fuser Direct cinematic scenes with physics-aware material dynamics, deliberate camera motion, and seamless 10-second temporal consistency [Animate scene](https://app.fuser.studio) ## Related models - [MiniMax H3 Recast](https://fuser.studio/models/minimax-h3-recast.md) - [Kling O3 Edit](https://fuser.studio/models/kling-o3-edit.md) - [Kling O3](https://fuser.studio/models/kling-o3.md) - [Kling 3.0 Video](https://fuser.studio/models/kling-3-0-video.md) - [Seedance 2](https://fuser.studio/models/seedance-2.md) - [MiniMax H3](https://fuser.studio/models/minimax-h3.md) Node reference: [Pika docs](https://docs.fuser.studio/docs/nodes/video/pika.md)
