From character image and real motion to one animated shot
A 3D character image provides the visual identity, while the original live-action clip provides the pose sequence and timing. The result transfers the same gesture performance to the animated character.

A practical motion-transfer workflow
What Kling 2.6 Motion Control does well
Use a clean, single-person performance to direct character animation without building a motion rig.
Complex limbs and gestures
Preserve multi-limb motion and make hand gestures more readable in character performances.
Up to 30 seconds in one shot
Use Follow video for longer continuous motion, while the prompt guides background and scene details.
From reference motion to character performance
Upload the character
Choose one clear image with a body crop similar to the motion clip.
Add the performance
Upload a single-shot reference video between 3 and 30 seconds.
Direct and generate
Choose orientation and resolution, then use the prompt for scene and camera details.
Choose what controls the character's facing direction
Follow image preserves the reference image orientation and allows up to 10 seconds. Follow video tracks the performer's direction and allows up to 30 seconds.
Follow image
Best when the starting pose and camera direction in the character image should remain dominant.
Follow video
Best for longer performances, turns, and direction changes from the reference clip.
