How to interpolate video between keyframes with your AI

Connect Luma AI to your agent to turn static images into fluid motion. You provide the start and end points, and the AI handles the movement.

Short answer

How do I interpolate video between two images using AI?

You give your AI two specific images and tell it to bridge them. The AI uses Luma AI to generate the missing frames, creating a smooth video transition. You'll get a rendered video file that flows naturally from the first image to the second.

The results of your request

What you get from the AI

Depending on how you prompt your agent, you'll get one of these outcomes.

VIDEO

Smooth motion clips

The AI generates a video file that morphs one image into another. This is the primary way to create transitions.

DATA

Generation status

You can check on the progress of your video render. The AI tracks whether the video is still processing or ready to view.

HUMAN

Manual refinement

You decide if the motion looks right. If the transition is too fast or weird, you'll need to adjust your prompt and try again.

ASSETS

Final video files

Once the generation finishes, you get a direct link to the video. You can then download or use the clip in your projects.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

Your agent handles the heavy lifting of communicating with Luma AI to turn your ideas into video.

  1. Analyze images

    Your agent looks at the two images you want to connect to understand the visual context.

    lm.get_generation

  2. Generate transition

    The AI sends the instruction to Luma AI to calculate the movement between your keyframes.

    lm.interpolate

  3. Monitor progress

    Since video takes time to render, the agent checks the status of the job.

    lm.get_generation

  4. Deliver video

    Once the render is complete, the agent provides you with the final video output.

    lm.get_generation

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI edit the individual images before interpolating?

    No. The AI uses the images exactly as they are provided to create the transition.

  • 02

    Does the AI choose the music for the video?

    No. This tool focuses strictly on visual interpolation between keyframes.

  • 03

    How do I know when my video is done?

    You can ask your agent to check the status of your generation at any time.

  • 04

    Can I control the speed of the transition?

    Yes, you can specify the desired motion or timing within your prompt.

  • 05

    Will the AI delete my original images?

    No. The AI only reads the images to generate the new video content.
