Prompting
Prompt tips
- Directorial structuring: Write prompts like a storyboard (e.g., "Shot 1: Close-up on face, 3s. Shot 2: Wide pan of the room, 5s.") to trigger multi-shot capabilities.
- Technical camera terms: Use specific industry vocabulary like "anamorphic lens," "tracking shot," or "handheld camera shake" to dictate precise camera behavior.
- Frame-accurate transitions: If you need seamless loops or exact transitions, skip the multi-shot feature and use a single continuous shot with defined start and end images.
- Audio prompting: Explicitly describe the desired soundscape, accents, or character emotion in your text to guide the native audio and voice synthesis generation.
About the model
Questions, answered
Is Kling AI free?
Check Kling’s own account and credits policy for current trial or promotional access. Allowances, expiry and eligible models can change. Do not assume a quoted free-credit offer includes Kling V3, the resolution you need, or API usage.
Is Kling AI free on Hedra?
Generation on Hedra uses paid credits. The pricing table on this page comes from Hedra’s live model catalog. Check the quote for your selected settings before submitting a generation.
Is Kling V3 the same as Kling O3 or Motion Control?
No. Kling’s generation, editing, reference and motion-control models have separate inputs and prices. The table here is for Kling V3; open the matching catalog page when you need another Kling workflow.
What should I check when a free allowance runs out?
Check when credits reset or expire, which settings the allowance covers, and the paid rate for your next run. Budget for retries as well as the final output. Paid access remains subject to service limits and availability.
Can I use the output commercially?
Review the applicable model and platform terms for your use case. You also need the rights to any images, footage, voices or other material you supply. A free trial alone does not establish commercial-use rights.
Do I need an API key?
You can create in Hedra’s Creative Studio without an API key. Create a key when you want to call the model from your own application; the model’s developer page lists the request schema.
