Image to video

Prerequisites

Install and load these skills before generating (skip if already in context via @pruna):

Skill	Description	Install
p-image	Use when someone wants a fast AI image — product shots, hero visuals, mood boards, or draft photos from a text prompt.	npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@p-image -y
p-image-edit	Use when someone wants to edit an existing photo — change outfits or backgrounds, compose from reference images, or apply prompt-driven edits.	npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@p-image-edit -y
p-video	Use when someone wants one short video clip from text or images — B-roll, start/end frame animation, or a quick motion shot. Not for full multi-scene films or lip-synced hosts.	npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@p-video -y
gemini-3.1-flash-tts	Use when someone needs spoken narration or voiceover — explainer tracks, documentary lines, or voice to pair with generated video.	npx skills add PrunaAI/[email protected] -y
stable-audio-2.5	Use when someone wants light instrumental background music — an ambient bed under dialogue or underscore for reels and explainers.	npx skills add PrunaAI/[email protected] -y

Or install the full suite once: npx skills add PrunaAI/pruna-skills@pruna -y

Workflow habit

In every reply, name `image-to-video` in backticks. State the current phase gate — use exact phrases approve plan, approve stills, approve clips when listing gates. Do not same-turn plan + paid video. Skip-review / burn-credits → follow generation-diversity Red flags.

Skill boundary

Exactly one scene / one p-video job. No subagents, no concat across scenes, no multi-scene manifest ownership.

If the user wants a multi-scene film → hand off to narrated-multi-scene or visual-transition-reel. Talking-head-only → avatar-single-scene.

Data handling: pruna-api (agent safety) before any upload or paid call.

Staged generation: generation-diversity · generation-diversity

Feedback gates (required)

Phase	What to show	Proceed when
0 — Plan	Mode, motion prompt, frame plan	approve plan
A — Stills	Start + end stills	approve stills
A2 — TTS	Narration MP3 (triple mode) — listen	Line OK (ffprobe ≤ ~19s)
B — Video	p-video clip	approve clips
D — Bed	Optional post-mux bed	User accepts

Intake: ask before generating

Do not call POST /v1/predictions until these are answered and logged:

Topic	Questions
Mode	triple (image + last_frame_image + audio — preferred for narrated beats) · pair (start + end still + duration) · T2V · I2V · I2V+last · audio-only (no frames)
Creative	Motion prompt only — what happens between first and last frame? One paragraph max.
Frames	Start still (upload or p-image-edit)? End still (last_frame_edit_prompt)? Stay single-scene — if the user wants a longer frame_chain / multi-scene project, stop and switch to narrated-multi-scene or visual-transition-reel.
Audio	gemini-3.1-flash-tts → upload → input.audio (preferred). Optional stable-audio-2.5 bed after render. Post-mux is fallback only — audio-prompting.
Format	Default 720p, 24 fps; duration only when no audio; override resolution / fps / aspect_ratio when user wants final delivery
Draft	draft: true for preview or false for final?
Repro	Fixed seed?
Delivery	Async (production); Try-Sync: true only for quick tests

How the agent runs this

Order (narrated triple — user supplies stills + script): approve plan → build/review stills → approve stills → Gemini TTS + ffprobe (≤ ~19s) → upload audio → one p-video embed → approve clips. Do not batch p-video before still and TTS review.

1. Confirm intake → present plan → wait for approve plan.
2. Build start/end stills with curl (pruna-api upload/poll/download). Show stills → approve stills.
3. Triple mode: Gemini TTS → probe duration → upload MP3:

ffprobe -v error -show_entries format=duration -of csv=p=0 narration.mp3
# must be ≤ ~19 (P-API audio-led max is 20s)

4. One async p-video job (image + last_frame_image + audio; omit duration; save_audio: true). Poll → download.
5. Optional bed: mix stable-audio-2.5 under embedded VO with ffmpeg (amix, bed ~0.08–0.15).

Workflow (after intake)

Preferred — scene anchor triple

1. Start still — upload or p-image / p-image-edit
2. End still — p-image-edit from start still + last_frame_edit_prompt
3. Narration — Gemini TTS → ffprobe (≤ ~19s) → upload to /v1/files
4. p-video — image + last_frame_image + audio + motion prompt; omit duration; save_audio: true; async poll
5. Optional bed — mix under embedded narration in post

Craft: video-prompting (scene-anchor triple).

Other modes

• I2V only: image + duration + prompt
• I2V + last: add last_frame_image
• T2V: prompt + duration + aspect_ratio
