Motion transfer video model

Animate a reference character with Kling Motion Control

Kling Motion Control is built for the workflow where one reference image and one driving clip need to become a controlled short video. It works well for talking avatars, stylized presenters, and character shots that need motion without throwing away identity.

Use a reference image and a motion clip to guide more controllable character movement

This page wraps Kling Motion Control into a simpler product workflow. You upload a subject image, add a motion-driving clip, and optionally refine the result with a short prompt. Most users never need more than that.

Kling Motion Control
Transfer motion from a reference video onto a reference character with a deliberately simple workflow: optional prompt, one image, one motion clip, one output quality.
Optional

Leave it empty if the reference image and motion clip already define the scene clearly.

Upload one character or product image that should receive the transferred motion.

Upload one reference image

Upload one driving clip. The model will borrow its movement pattern.

Use 720p when you want faster checks on pose transfer and pacing.

Use 720p to validate the movement first, then move to 1080p once the motion and framing are approved.
Motion transfer is the core job
Instead of asking the model to invent all movement from scratch, you hand it a driving clip and let it borrow the motion pattern directly.
Identity stays more stable
This is more useful when the same face, costume, or product silhouette needs to survive the shot.
Reference-first setup is faster
A single reference image plus a single motion clip is easier for most users than tuning a large stack of cinematic controls.
Advanced options stay hidden
Orientation and background source are still available, but they only appear when you need extra control.

Sample videos

These example cards show how the model behaves in a reference-subject plus motion-driver workflow.

Avatar motionSample video
Character-led motion transfer
Use this workflow when the subject identity matters more than inventing a brand-new scene. It is a strong fit for avatars, spokesperson clips, and personality-driven short-form content.
Motion video
Best fit

Choose this when you want the same subject to inherit movement from a driver clip without rebuilding the whole scene from text alone.

Brand workflowSample video
Controlled presenter and product scenes
This model also works well when a presenter, mascot, or product-bearing character needs repeatable motion for brand content, explainers, or paid ads.
Motion video
Best fit

Use it for ads, mascot motion, product presenters, and any short-form video where motion needs to feel guided instead of improvised.

This sample clip shows the kind of result you can get from a reference subject and a motion driver.

Why Kling Motion Control is useful beyond normal text-to-video

Kling Motion Control is not just another generic video generator. Its real value appears when your team already knows which subject should appear and which movement should drive the result.

Better when the subject is already known

If the face, outfit, or product silhouette matters, starting from a reference image is more reliable than describing everything from scratch.

Stronger control over motion behavior

The motion clip gives you a direct movement template, which reduces the guesswork found in pure prompt-based animation.

Useful for repeatable production

Teams making repeated avatar, ad, or spokesperson clips can reuse the same subject image while swapping in different motion drivers.

Simple enough for fast operators

The setup is intentionally narrow, so non-expert users can complete the workflow without learning a complicated control surface.

Where this model earns its place in a production stack

Kling Motion Control is most valuable when you need motion guidance and subject consistency at the same time.

It works well for spokesperson clips, avatar performance, and short presenter scenes where the same identity should stay readable across runs.

Frequently asked questions

These are the questions most teams ask before adding Kling Motion Control to a production workflow.





Use Kling Motion Control when your next video needs guided motion instead of guesswork

Choose Kling Motion Control when one subject image and one motion clip can get you to a cleaner result faster than building the whole shot from prompt alone.
