The prompt used for this example
The fox takes two careful steps beside the stream, turns its head toward the viewer and flicks its ears. Its tail sways naturally. Water ripples and a few leaves drift down. Realistic anatomy, full body visible, steady camera, no cuts.
The prompt describes the motion. New generations can vary; the workspace shows the current credit quote for your selected settings.
Try this prompt with your photo →Start with a visible subject
Keep the animal’s paws, ears and tail inside the frame if they are part of the action. The fox example uses a clear foreground subject and a quiet background so the viewer can follow a small movement.
Choose a small action
Ask for two small steps or a gentle head turn. A detailed running or jumping sequence is harder to infer from one frame. Keep the camera fixed initially so you can tell whether the animal itself is moving.
Check anatomy and continuity
Watch the feet touching the ground and count the visible limbs across the clip. If motion looks unstable, simplify the sequence and regenerate. These examples show one output, not a promise that every attempt produces the same result.
