Video Generation in ZenCreator.pro: Tools, Models, and Practical Scenarios Overview

In this lesson, we examine all video generation tools in ZenCreator.pro and break down when and why to use each one.

In total, the product has three key video generation tools:

• Image-to-Video
• Video-to-Video
• LipSync

Image-to-Video: Turning Images into Video Clips

Image-to-Video allows you to:

• Take one image
• Add a prompt (description of motion, scene, actions)
• Optionally add audio
• And get a video clip of specified duration

Models in Image-to-Video

Kling (versions 1.6 / 2.1 / 2.5)

• Understands prompts excellently
• Visually high-quality and predictable animations
• Model is censored — only for safe for work

Kling 2.1 supports Start Frame and End Frame for stitching long videos.

Seedance Pro and Seedance Pro Fast

• Follow prompts well
• Work without censorship

Seedance Pro Fast is optimal for tests (5-second 480p clip costs 2 credits).

WAN Plus Audio (WAN 2.5)

• Can work with audio
• Allows character to speak or make sounds
• Works without censorship

WAN

• Complete absence of censorship
• Supports Start / End Frame
• Soon will have LoRA support added

Start Frame / End Frame: How to Make Long Videos

For consistent videos 20+ seconds long:

• First clip is created between first and second images
• Second clip is created between second and third images
• Middle frame is used twice

For a two-part video, you need three images.

Template Library

Image-to-Video has a template library, including 18+ templates. Templates contain detailed prompts — it's recommended to read them and adapt them for your model.

Video-to-Video: Animation and Character Replacement

Animate Mode

• Takes a character photo
• Takes a video reference
• Character is animated with movements from the video

Replace Mode

• Uses environment from video
• Character is inserted into the scene

LipSync: Bringing Characters to Life with Speech

LipSync is a tool for creating speaking characters.

Key features:

• Completely without censorship
• High lip synchronization
• Supports complex instructions in prompts

You can describe character actions before, during, and after speech.

To work, you need:

• Character image
• Audio file

Audio can be taken from templates or generated through third-party services (for example, ElevenLabs).

Summary

The entire video generation system is built around three tools:

1. Image-to-Video — for creating video from image and prompt
2. Video-to-Video — for animating character by video or replacing character in scene
3. LipSync — for creating speaking, living characters with speech and actions

Using the right model for the needed task, templates, and Start / End Frame, you can build a scalable video pipeline — from short clips to complex scenes with speech and motion.
