The exact amount is always shown on the Generate button before you start; it depends on duration, quality and sound.

Prompt tips
- Write in film language: shot type, camera move, light and mood. Kling understands these words well.
- In Kling 3.0 call your recurring characters by name in the prompt: @Element1, @Element2.
- For Motion Control pick a frame where the character is large: waist-up or full body, with nothing blocking them.
Common mistakes
- Do not ask for an end frame on versions that lack it: in the Studio it exists in Kling 3.0 and 2.1, not in 2.6 and 2.5 Turbo.
- In Motion Control the character must fill a noticeable part of the frame and stay unobstructed: a tiny or covered figure transfers poorly.
- Not every version has sound (2.5 Turbo does not): check the Sound fact above.
- Starting Image to video without a Start frame: it will not start without a picture.
- Asking for a duration outside the range: for Kling 2.1 Standard it is 5–10 s.
