Made with this app

Wan 2.6 by Alibaba brings cinematic video generation to your browser with strong motion diversity and support for both text and image inputs. Set your duration anywhere between 5 and 15 seconds, choose your aspect ratio, and describe a scene: the model handles everything from slow atmospheric shots to action-heavy sequences. It suits filmmakers, content creators, and visual designers who need high-quality clips with genuine variety in how subjects and environments move through the frame.

What you can make

Cinematic Product Reveals

Describe a product emerging from shadow into dramatic light, and Wan 2.6 renders it with the kind of controlled motion and depth you would expect from a studio shoot. Useful for short social clips or presentation inserts where visual weight matters.

Scene Concept Visualization

Directors and game designers can turn written scene descriptions into watchable moving references. Wan 2.6 handles diverse camera motion and subject behavior, making it practical for pitching atmosphere and pacing before committing to a full production.

Image Animation

Supply a still image alongside your text prompt and Wan 2.6 animates it with motion that feels natural to the scene. This is useful for bringing illustrations, photographs, or concept art to life without rebuilding the original visual from scratch.

Short-Form Social Content

Switch the aspect ratio to 9:16 for vertical delivery and describe a visually striking moment. Wan 2.6 produces high-quality footage in a format ready for reels and short-form platforms, keeping motion dynamic without looking artificially generated.

Motion Reference for Animators

Animators can generate movement studies by describing specific body mechanics, crowd behaviors, or environmental effects. The model's motion diversity means you can test several distinct motion ideas across a small number of generations.

Tips for better results

Describe Camera Behavior Explicitly

Wan 2.6 responds well to camera direction in the prompt. Specifying movements like a slow push-in, a low tracking shot, or a static wide frame gives the model clear guidance and produces more intentional motion than a scene description alone.

Use Duration for Pacing Control

The Duration control lets you choose between 5 and 15 seconds. Shorter durations work best for tight, punchy moments; longer durations suit atmospheric shots where motion needs time to develop. Match your duration to the rhythm of the scene you are describing.

Anchor Motion with a Reference Image

When visual consistency matters, pair your text prompt with an input image. Wan 2.6 accepts both text and image input, and anchoring to a still keeps the color palette, composition and subject appearance stable across the generated clip.

Match Aspect Ratio to Your Delivery Format

Pick 16:9 for widescreen presentations and desktop content, 9:16 for vertical social formats, and 1:1 for square placements. Setting this in the Aspect Ratio control before you generate avoids cropping the finished video after the fact.

When to choose this app

Choose Wan 2.6 when you want cinematic output with strong motion diversity and the flexibility to work from either a text description or a reference image, all within a 5 to 15 second window. Seedance 2.5 and Seedance 2.0 both include native audio synthesis, which Wan 2.6 does not prioritize, making them better picks when sound is integral to the clip. Wan 3.0 supports single-pass generation up to 30 seconds with omni-reference, so choose that model when you need longer sequences or broader reference controls. Wan 2.6 is the right choice when cinematic quality and motion variety are the primary requirements.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use an existing image as a starting point in Wan 2.6?

Yes. Wan 2.6 accepts both text and image input. Upload a reference image alongside your prompt and the model will animate it according to your description, preserving the visual character of the original while adding motion.

What does motion diversity mean in practice for this model?

Motion diversity means Wan 2.6 can handle a wide range of movement types within a single generation: subtle environmental effects like wind or water, complex human or animal motion, and dynamic camera work. You are not limited to simple pans or static subjects.

How should I write prompts to get cinematic results?

Include lighting conditions, camera movement, depth of field cues, and a clear sense of atmosphere. Phrases like 'shallow focus', 'tracking shot', 'golden hour lighting', or 'wide establishing shot' push the model toward the composed, intentional quality its cinematic output is designed for.

Does the aspect ratio affect how motion is composed in the clip?

Yes, to a meaningful degree. A 9:16 vertical frame naturally emphasizes vertical subject movement and portrait-style composition, while 16:9 suits horizontal pans and landscape scenes. Choosing the right ratio in the control before generating helps the model compose motion appropriately.

Is 15 seconds long enough for a complete scene?

For most social content, product reveals, and motion references it is sufficient. If you need a longer continuous sequence, consider structuring your project as connected clips, each generated with a consistent style and matching visual anchor, then editing them together afterward.

How specific should my prompt be about subject behavior?

Fairly specific. Wan 2.6 benefits from concrete action descriptions rather than vague mood words. Instead of 'a person walking', try 'a woman in a long coat walking slowly through a foggy cobblestone street, looking down'. Specificity gives the model's motion system clear targets.

Which AI model powers this app?

This app runs on Wan 2.6, available through Arteza with no separate account or setup.

Can I use the results commercially?

Yes. Content you generate is yours to use, subject to our content licenses.

How long does a generation take?

Most generations finish in under a minute, and you can watch progress live in the gallery.
