## Use this when

* You need flagship-quality cinematic video on Kyma.
* The result is going on a landing page, ad, or hero placement.
* You don't need synchronized audio in the clip.

## Pick something else when

* You need synchronized ambient or dialogue audio: use [`kling-3-pro-audio`](/models/kling-3-pro-audio).
* You're producing fast-cut social with audio: use [`seedance-2-pro`](/models/seedance-2-pro) or [`seedance-2-fast`](/models/seedance-2-fast).
* Cost matters more than the absolute fidelity of motion: use [`kling-2.5-pro`](/models/kling-2.5-pro).

## Example

```bash theme={null}
curl -X POST https://kymaapi.com/v1/videos/generations \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $KYMA_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "kling-3-pro",
    "prompt": "an architectural fly-through of a glass-and-steel tower at sunset, cinematic anamorphic look",
    "duration": 5
  }'
```

The endpoint is async — POST returns `202` with a `job_id`; poll [`GET /v1/jobs/{id}`](/api-reference/videos-generations#poll-for-the-result) until status is `succeeded`.

## Image-to-video

Pass `image_url` to use the image as the first frame:

```json theme={null}
{
  "model": "kling-3-pro",
  "prompt": "the camera slowly pushes in, the subject blinks once",
  "image_url": "https://example.com/portrait.jpg",
  "duration": 5
}
```
