Choose compatible endpoints
Compare subject, viewpoint, lighting, and scene geometry. Decide which changes are intentional and whether a coherent transition can connect them.
Video / Use case
Two moments.
One motion between.
Plan a video around intended starting and ending images, with a brief that explains a coherent transition between them.
Start and end images express two visual states. The motion between them still needs a direction. Treat the intended boundary frames as a more specific requirement than a general appearance reference, and inspect how the transition connects them.

From input to intention
Give the idea a clear path.
Prepare the input, express the intention, and review what actually changed.
Describe the progression
Explain the action or camera movement that leads from the first state to the second. Avoid asking for an unrelated event between two tightly constrained images.
Review boundaries and continuity
Check how the actual beginning and ending relate to the supplied images, then inspect the motion and any unwanted changes between them.
Start with a useful brief
A direction you can adapt.
Use this as a starting brief, then adjust it to your own source and intention.
Example direction
Move gradually from the first supplied architectural view toward the ending composition. Keep the structure consistent and let the camera movement explain the change in framing. Avoid an abrupt cut or a change of location.
Illustrative creative brief. It is not the recorded prompt for the displayed sample.
01
Endpoints do not explain the whole journey
Two images can express where a sequence should begin and end while leaving the movement ambiguous. Describe whether the change comes from the subject, camera, environment, or a deliberate transition.
If the endpoints disagree strongly about structure or perspective, inspect whether the desired connection is plausible for the intended visual style.
02
Distinguish a frame constraint from a reference
A visual reference guides appearance. A dedicated frame input expresses a boundary condition. The final labels should match what the connected backend actually does.
Do not promise exact boundary reproduction unless it is verified. Inspect the output rather than assuming that a matching thumbnail proves the full transition is correct.
03
Review the middle as carefully as the endpoints
A sequence can begin and end convincingly while distorting geometry or identity in the middle. Watch for sudden morphing, scene resets, and movement that does not explain the visual change.
The actual endpoint pair and verified video are marked Missing. An illustrative image is not evidence that both boundary frames can be reproduced exactly.
The useful details
A few good
questions.
Is this the same as uploading an image reference?
No. A dedicated start or end frame expresses a more specific boundary requirement than a general visual reference.
Can any two images be connected?
Do not assume a convincing transition is possible for arbitrary endpoints. Choose images with an intentional relationship and inspect the result.
What should the prompt describe?
The movement or transformation connecting the two visual states, plus important elements that should remain consistent.
Are the boundary-frame controls connected?
