- Keep prompts simple and direct — Subject + Action + Setting + Camera + Mood. Grok expands the prompt itself; over-specification fights the expander.
- Image-to-video: the input image IS the first frame (composition, identity, and style are preserved) — describe the MOTION, don't re-describe the still.
- Video 1.5: 1-15s (default 8), 480p/720p/1080p; exact start and end frame (one image as both = seamless loop), up to 4 in-between frames. Native audio incl. dialogue — quote the line to have it spoken.
- Aspect ratio applies to text runs (1:1/16:9/9:16/3:2/2:3/auto); a single input image locks the output to the image's own aspect.
