Guide to First and Last Frame Control

What Is First and Last Frame Control

This feature lets you use your own images as specific frames in the generated video:

• First Frame sets the opening shot. The video begins from this image.
• Last Frame sets the closing shot. The video transitions into this image by the end.

You can use First only, or First and Last together in a single generation. There is no Last Frame only mode.

Limitations

• You can set at most one First Frame and one Last Frame.
• You cannot combine First or Last with reference images in the same generation. Choose frames or references, not both.

Availability

• Auto mode supports First and Last Frame Control.
• All Custom mode models support First Frame. Last Frame Control depends on the model you choose. See the Video Models Guide for details.

How to add First and Last Frame

You add frames by attaching images, then assigning their role. First, go to the Content Generator. Then:

Step 1. Select the First and (Optionally) Last Frame Images

You can do this in several ways:

Option 1: Add References button

1. Click the file with a plus icon in the prompt box.
2. Pick an image from Generated, Uploaded, Folders, or upload a new one.
3. In the small dropdown under the thumbnail, choose First Frame. 
4. Select another image and set it as the Last Frame (optional).

Option 2: Drag and drop

1. Drag an image from the gallery into the prompt box.
2. Use the dropdown under its thumbnail to choose First Frame.
3. Drag & drop another image and set it as the Last Frame (optional).

Option 3: Use image

1. Hover an image, click the three dots, select Use image.
2. Set its role in the dropdown under the thumbnail. Repeat if you’d like to set both the first and the last frame.

Want a seamless loop feel?

• Use the same image twice (but have it as separate uploads/generations!).
• Set the first as First Frame and the second as Last Frame.

Step 2. Write a Prompt

Describe what you'd like to happen in the video.

Step 3. Generate

Press the arrow in the prompt box and wait a moment.

That’s it. Add your frames, write a short scene prompt, and generate!
