Generate a video from a text description.

In this example, xai/grok-imagine-video is used to generate a video of 2 swans. Note that you can also specify the duration of the output.

import { experimental_generateVideo as generateVideo } from 'ai';
const { videos } = await generateVideo({
  model: 'xai/grok-imagine-video',
  prompt:
   `Two elegant white swans gliding on a misty lake at dawn, soft golden light,
    reflections on still water, romantic atmosphere, cinematic`,
  aspectRatio: '16:9',
  resolution: '1280x720',
  duration: 3,
});

Transform an existing video into a new style:

In this example, using a previous generation from Grok Imagine Video, the output was transformed into an animated watercolor style.

The source video is used and edited, which is useful for style transfer, object swapping, and scene transformations.

import { experimental_generateVideo as generateVideo } from 'ai';
const { videos } = await generateVideo({
  model: 'xai/grok-imagine-video',
  prompt:
   'Transform into anime style, soft hand-painted look, warm dreamy atmosphere',
  providerOptions: {
    xai: {
      videoUrl: sourceVideo,
    },
  },
});
