wan-2.2-animateWan 2.2 Animate turns a character image and a reference video into a new clip in one of two ways. In animate mode, the default, the character and background from your image are driven by the motion and expressions of the person in the video — dance covers, gestures, a talking head — which is how an illustration, a game character or an avatar gets a performance without motion capture. In replace mode the video keeps its scene, camera and motion and only the person is swapped for your character: a virtual character dropped into live footage, or an existing clip recast. The output is exactly as long as the reference video, at 480p or 720p (default 720p), 24fps, and it keeps the reference video's audio track. Billing is per second of the reference video, rounded up to whole seconds: $0.0742/s at 480p and $0.154/s at 720p — a 5-second reference is $0.371 or $0.77, a 30-second one $2.226 or $4.62 — fixed the moment the task is created, and failed requests are never charged. Measured here: a 3.54-second 1080p reference produced a 3.54-second 832x480 clip in 110 seconds, with the character following the gestures beat for beat. Inputs: the image as a public URL or base64 up to 50MB (one person, facing forward, with a clear face works best); the video as a public https MP4 URL up to 120 seconds and 200MB. We read the video's length before creating the task, so an unreadable, private or expired link returns a 400 immediately instead of failing minutes later. Where it fits: dance and choreography recreation, VTuber and avatar reaction clips triggered from a library of reference moves, and recasting existing footage with a virtual lead. Same endpoint and key as the Wan Spicy image-to-video models — only the model field changes.
One person facing forward with a clear face works best; stylised characters work too. Max 50MB.
MP4, max 100MB here (the API takes up to 200MB by public URL), up to 120s. The output is exactly this long, and so is the bill.
animate: your character and background, moving like the person in the video.

Your character and background, moving and emoting like the person in the reference video — no motion capture
The video keeps its scene, camera and motion; only the person becomes your character
No duration parameter. Billed per second of the reference video, rounded up: $0.0742/s at 480p, $0.154/s at 720p
The reference video's sound stays in the output; the frame follows the reference. Measured: 3.54 s in, 3.54 s out
We read the clip length at creation and fix the price there. Unreadable or private links return a 400 right away; up to 120 seconds per clip

Wan 2.2 Animate is available through APIMODELS at: 480p: $0.0742, 720p: $0.154. Billing is pay-as-you-go — you only pay for what you generate.
Sign up at APIMODELS, get your API key, and call our unified API endpoint. We provide detailed API documentation with code examples in cURL, Python, and Node.js.
APIMODELS offers the same Wan 2.2 Animate model through our aggregation platform. We provide a unified API interface so you do not need separate accounts for each provider - one API key to access all models.
Per second of the reference video, rounded up to whole seconds: $0.0742/s at 480p and $0.154/s at 720p. A 5-second reference is $0.371 or $0.77, 10 seconds $0.742 or $1.54, 30 seconds $2.226 or $4.62. Both modes cost the same, the charge is fixed when the task is created with nothing added afterwards, and failed requests are not charged. Omitting resolution bills at 720p — pass 480p explicitly to pay less.
**animate** (the default) keeps your image — the character and its background — and drives it with the motion and expressions of the person in the reference video, so the output shows your character dancing, talking or gesturing. **replace** keeps the reference video — scene, camera, motion — and only swaps the person for your character, so the output is the original shot with a new lead. Use animate to give an illustration or avatar a performance; use replace to put a virtual character into live footage or recast an existing clip.
The output is exactly as long as the reference video, to the millisecond; there is no duration parameter, and in our test a 3.54-second reference produced a 3.54-second clip. The video must be a public https MP4 URL of at most 120 seconds and 200MB — no base64, no login-gated or signed-expiry links. We read its length before creating the task to fix the price, so an unreadable link returns a 400 with the reason immediately instead of failing minutes later. The frame follows the reference: a 16:9 reference comes out at 832x480 in 480p.
The output keeps the reference video's audio track (stereo AAC in our test) at 24fps; a silent reference gives a silent clip, the model does not add sound of its own. The character image can be a public URL or base64 up to 50MB. One person, facing forward, with a clear unobstructed face works best, and stylised characters drive fine too — our test animated an elf character from a real person's gestures.
Three uses come up first: **dance and choreography recreation** (one character image follows any dance video); **VTuber and avatar reaction clips** (keep a library of reference moves and generate the reaction a fan triggers); **recasting existing footage** (replace mode puts a virtual character into a live shot). Measured here, a 480p job on a 3.54-second reference took 110 seconds; longer clips and 720p take longer, so design around an async task. Same endpoint and key as the Wan Spicy image-to-video models — only the model field changes.

Graduation-gown close-up: a worried monologue to camera
这是一个正面的近景镜头，画面主要呈现一位年轻黑人女孩的头部和上半身，她穿着一件蓝色的毕业袍。镜头稍微偏一点点，可以看到左边还有一个人，但背景被虚化处理了，看起来很模糊。女孩正对着镜头说话，嘴巴在动，眉头稍微皱着，表情看起来有点严肃和忧虑。光线从上方照下来，把她脸上的轮廓衬托得很自然，甚至能看到皮肤真实的质感。镜头虽然固定，但带着一点点人手持拍摄时的轻微呼吸感和晃动，视线从看着前面慢慢变成了低头看手里。

Suspense long take down an empty hospital corridor
一段现代悬疑风格的电影感长镜头，整个画面呈现出强烈的淡绿色滤镜风格，营造出一种基于淡绿色系的清冷氛围。在散发着冰冷白光的荧光灯下，空无一人的医院走廊呈现出低饱和的色彩与极高对比的光影关系，锐利且非人情化。镜头从护士台后方开始，一名身穿墨绿色夹克的女子猛地从走廊尽头的门后冲入，沿着对称的中心线向镜头快速跑来，摄影机流畅地向后移动。她的脚步声急促而响亮，口中焦急地呼喊。最终，她冲到台前，双手用力拍在台面上，绝望地环顾四周，发出几近崩溃的求助呐喊，声音在只有微弱设备嗡鸣的寂静中回荡。
