w ai walkthrough on flixly
A hands-on w ai session that turns four product photos into motion posters and synced clips in under 20 minutes using Seedance 2.0 and Veo 3.1.
TL;DR
Upload reference images to the Reference to Video page, pick Seedance 2.0, set 8-second duration and 0.65 motion strength. Export to Motion Poster, add lip sync with Gemini 3.1 Flash TTS, then run Auto Captions. Four finished assets ready in 17 minutes.
A designer needs 12 motion posters for a client pitch at 3 pm. She opens the Flixly dashboard at 2:41 pm.
She starts at the Reference to Video page. The goal is to turn 4 product stills into 8-second clips that match the brand palette.
First she uploads the reference image. Seedance 2.0 loads in the model selector. She sets duration to 8 seconds, aspect 9:16, and motion strength to 0.65. The prompt field receives: product rotation on marble surface, soft studio lighting, 24 fps.
The job finishes in 47 seconds. She watches the clip in the preview player. The camera orbit stays smooth and the product edges stay sharp because Seedance 2.0 respects the reference mask.
Next she moves to the Motion Poster tool. She drags the new clip in and chooses the 1080x1920 template. A single slider controls poster loop length; she sets it to 6 seconds with a 0.3-second crossfade. The export button produces an mp4 and a still frame for the thumbnail.
She repeats the sequence three more times. Each pass uses a different reference image but keeps the same Seedance 2.0 settings. Total time for four clips: 9 minutes 14 seconds.
At 2:52 pm she opens the Lip Sync Video page. A voice-over line needs to match one of the clips. She pastes the script, selects Gemini 3.1 Flash TTS, and clones a 12-second sample of her own voice. The sync offset lands at 0.08 seconds after the first run. She trims the audio tail in the built-in editor and re-exports.
The final file list now contains four 8-second mp4s, four motion posters, and one synced version. File sizes average 14 MB each.
She drags the set into the Auto Captions tool. Font size 48, bottom safe area 8 percent, brand color #00FFAA. Captions render in 18 seconds.
A quick check in the gallery shows all assets share consistent color grade because every generation used the same reference image as the color source.
She downloads the zip at 2:58 pm and drops it into the client folder. The pitch deck is ready with 5 minutes to spare.
The same sequence works for longer projects. Replace the 8-second clips with Image to Video jobs at 24 seconds and raise motion strength to 0.8 when more camera movement is required. Credit cost per 8-second Seedance 2.0 clip sits at 18 credits on the current rate card.
| Step | Tool | Model | Duration | Credits | Output |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Reference to Video | Seedance 2.0 | 8 s | 18 | mp4 |
| 2 | Motion Poster | Seedance 2.0 | 6 s loop | 9 | mp4 + jpg |
| 3 | Lip Sync Video | Gemini 3.1 Flash TTS | 8 s | 12 | mp4 |
| 4 | Auto Captions | n/a | 8 s | 3 | srt + mp4 |
After the fourth clip she notices one edge artifact on the marble surface. She returns to the original job, lowers motion strength to 0.55, and regenerates only that frame range. The new version lands in 31 seconds.
All files land in the project folder named by date and client code. No manual renaming is needed because the export preset appends the model name and duration automatically.
The workflow scales. A batch of 20 reference images takes 47 minutes when run in parallel queues. The credit total stays under 480 for the entire set.
She closes the browser tab knowing the assets match the brief and the deadline.
