Kunlun Wanwei SkyReels V4 video generation series. V4 is the multimodal release of SkyReels. Beyond T2V / I2V, it natively supports Omni multi-asset references (image / video / audio), video extension, first/last frame & mid-frame keyframes, voiceprint sync, and other advanced capabilities. Duration is any integer in 3-15 seconds. Billed by resolution × duration, with two tiers — Fast / Std:

Tier	Positioning	Speed	Quality	Recommended Scenarios
`skyreels-v4-fast`	Fast tier	Quick	Standard	Creative previews, batch drafts, A/B comparisons
`skyreels-v4-std`	Standard quality tier	Slower (~1.5-2x)	More stable	Final delivery, client-facing cuts, complex motion shots

Both tiers share the same parameters and capabilities (actions / ref_images / ref_videos / mid_frame_images / voiceprint) — they only differ in sampling depth. Recommended workflow: prototype with fast, render the final cut with std.

Pricing

Billed per second ($ / sec). When video reference is enabled (ref_videos containing extend or reference types), a separate unit price applies:

`skyreels-v4-fast`

Resolution	Standard	With Video Reference	5-second video (standard)
480P	`$0.068` / sec	`$0.1275` / sec	`$0.34`
720P	`$0.0935` / sec	`$0.17` / sec	`$0.4675`
1080P	`$0.23375` / sec	`$0.425` / sec	`$1.16875`

`skyreels-v4-std`

Resolution	Standard	With Video Reference	5-second video (standard)
480P	`$0.0935` / sec	`$0.153` / sec	`$0.4675`
720P	`$0.119` / sec	`$0.2125` / sec	`$0.595`
1080P	`$0.2975` / sec	`$0.53125` / sec	`$1.4875`

Video reference surcharge — when ref_videos contains any item of type reference (video reference) or extend (video extension), pricing follows the “With Video Reference” column; otherwise the standard column.

Mode Cheat Sheet

Switch generation modes via the action field (or the corresponding media fields):

Mode	`action`	Key Fields	Typical Use
Text-to-video	`generate`	`prompt`	Pure text generation
Image-to-video	`image2video`	`first_frame_image`	Animate a single frame
First/last frame inpainting	`first_last_frame`	`first_frame_image` + `last_frame_image`	Precisely control start/end frames
Multi-image reference (Omni)	`reference`	`ref_images`	Character / style / scene consistency
Video reference	`reference_video`	`ref_videos.type=reference`	Replicate camera motion / style
Video extension	`extend`	`ref_videos.type=extend`	Continue an existing video
Audio-driven	`reference_audio`	`audio_urls` or `ref_images[].audio_url`	Voiceprint / beat sync, lip-sync

Usually no need to pass action explicitly — the backend auto-routes based on the media fields you supply. Pass it explicitly to lock the mode and avoid ambiguity (e.g. force video reference when both images and videos are present).

Available Models

Model ID	Tier	Resolution	Duration	Description
`skyreels-v4-fast`	Fast tier	480P / 720P / 1080P	3-15 sec	Full T2V/I2V/Omni capability, faster response
`skyreels-v4-std`	Standard quality tier	480P / 720P / 1080P	3-15 sec	Same capability as fast, more stable quality, suited for final delivery

Common Parameters

string

required

Model ID. Allowed values:

skyreels-v4-fast — fast tier
skyreels-v4-std — standard quality tier

string

default:"generate"

Operation type. The backend usually auto-routes based on media fields; passing explicitly locks the mode. Allowed values:

generate — text-to-video (T2V)
image2video — image-to-video (I2V), with first_frame_image
first_last_frame — first/last frame inpainting, with first_frame_image + last_frame_image
reference — multi-image reference (Omni style / character consistency), with ref_images
reference_video — video reference, with ref_videos.type=reference
reference_audio — audio-driven, with audio_urls or ref_images[].audio_url
extend — video extension, with ref_videos.type=extend

string

Video description, up to 5000 characters. Required for T2V; optional as guidance for other modes

string

default:"16:9"

Frame aspect ratio. Effective in T2V; modes containing media assets follow the source media’s ratio. Allowed values:

16:9 — landscape widescreen
9:16 — portrait tall
4:3 — landscape
3:4 — portrait
1:1 — square

string

default:"720p"

Output resolution. Allowed values:

480p
720p
1080p

integer

default:"5"

Video duration in seconds, any integer in 3-15

string[]

Reference image URL array (simplified mode), one of image_urls or ref_images. For complex cases (need to specify tag / type=image|grid / bind audio_url) use ref_images

string

First-frame image URL, triggers I2V mode

string

Last-frame image URL. When passed alongside first_frame_image, triggers first/last frame inpainting

string[]

Reference video URL array (simplified mode), one of video_urls or ref_videos. For complex cases (need to specify tag / type=reference|extend) use ref_videos

string[]

Reference audio URL array (simplified mode), triggers voiceprint sync (reference_audio mode), one of audio_urls or the audio_url field inside ref_images. For complex cases (binding audio to a specific asset, linked with image / style group) use ref_images[].audio_url

string

Webhook callback URL, invoked when the task reaches a terminal state. See Callbacks

string[]

Callback event subscription list. By default subscribes to terminal states (succeeded / failed). Allowed values:

queued — enqueued
running — execution started
succeeded — success (default)
failed — failure (default)

Model-Specific Parameters

Both tiers share identical parameters; they differ only in generation speed and quality. Choose by scenario.

skyreels-v4-fast
skyreels-v4-std

Positioning: fast tier, quicker response, suited for previews / drafts / high-throughput scenarios.

array

Omni multi-image reference, up to 6 items. Each item supports image (single image) or grid (multi-image composite), and may include audio_url as the driving audio. See Composite Field Reference below

array

Video reference, up to 1 item. type=reference for style / character reference; type=extend for video continuation. See Composite Field Reference below

array

Mid-frame keyframes, up to 6 items, with timestamps. Combine with first_frame_image / last_frame_image to precisely control motion trajectory. See Composite Field Reference below

boolean

default:"true"

Whether to enable intelligent prompt rewriting. When on, the backend expands prompt details to improve generation stability; when off, the original prompt is followed strictly

Positioning: standard quality tier — more stable quality and natural motion, suited for delivery-grade video. Generation takes about 1.5-2x longer than fast.

array

Video reference, up to 1 item. type=reference for style / character reference; type=extend for video continuation. See Composite Field Reference below

array

Mid-frame keyframes, up to 6 items, with timestamps. Combine with first_frame_image / last_frame_image to precisely control motion trajectory. See Composite Field Reference below

boolean

default:"true"

Whether to enable intelligent prompt rewriting. When on, the backend expands prompt details to improve generation stability; when off, the original prompt is followed strictly

Composite Field Reference

SkyReels V4’s multimodal capabilities are expressed via three array fields, with semantics more precise than the generic image_urls / video_urls. Recommended for complex scenarios.

`ref_images` — Omni multi-asset reference

Reference asset list, up to 6 items. Each item can be a single image or a multi-image grid, and may bind a driving audio clip.

Field	Type	Required	Description
`tag`	string	Yes	Asset tag, injected into prompt context. e.g. `char` / `style` / `bg`
`type`	string	Yes	`image` — single image; `grid` — multi-image composite (2-9 images forming one semantic group)
`image_urls`	string[]	Yes	Image URL array. Length 1 when `type=image`; 2-9 when `type=grid`
`audio_url`	string	No	Audio bound to this asset (voiceprint / beat driving), WAV / MP3

"ref_images": [
  {
    "tag": "char",
    "type": "image",
    "image_urls": ["https://cdn.example.com/char.jpg"]
  },
  {
    "tag": "style",
    "type": "grid",
    "image_urls": [
      "https://cdn.example.com/scene-1.jpg",
      "https://cdn.example.com/scene-2.jpg",
      "https://cdn.example.com/scene-3.jpg"
    ],
    "audio_url": "https://cdn.example.com/bgm.mp3"
  }
]

`ref_videos` — video reference / video extension

Video asset list, up to 1 item. type decides the semantics: style reference vs. video continuation.

Field	Type	Required	Description
`tag`	string	Yes	Asset tag, e.g. `src` / `style_ref`
`type`	string	Yes	`reference` — style / character / motion reference; `extend` — video continuation, the new video is appended to the source
`video_url`	string	Yes	Video URL, MP4 / MOV

"ref_videos": [
  {
    "tag": "src",
    "type": "extend",
    "video_url": "https://cdn.example.com/source.mp4"
  }
]

Pricing reminder — when any item in ref_videos is reference or extend, the +video_ref surcharge applies.

`mid_frame_images` — mid-frame keyframes

Define key frames in the middle of the video, up to 6 items, interpolated by timestamp. Often combined with first/last frames to precisely choreograph shot pacing.

Field	Type	Required	Description
`tag`	string	Yes	Keyframe tag, e.g. `kf_2s` / `peak`
`image_url`	string	Yes	Keyframe image URL
`time_stamp`	number	Yes	The frame’s appearance time (seconds), must lie in `(0, duration)` and be strictly increasing

"mid_frame_images": [
  {
    "tag": "kf_2s",
    "image_url": "https://cdn.example.com/kf-2.jpg",
    "time_stamp": 2.0
  },
  {
    "tag": "kf_5s",
    "image_url": "https://cdn.example.com/kf-5.jpg",
    "time_stamp": 5.0
  }
]

Prompt Writing Tips

SkyReels V4’s prompt_optimizer is on by default, but writing a clear prompt still significantly improves output quality:

Camera language — be explicit about camera motion (push / pull / pan / follow) and shot size (close-up / wide / overhead). Example: slow camera push-in, from wide shot to facial close-up
Pacing control — segment with time words. Example: still gaze for the first 2 seconds, then turn and walk away over the next 3. Pairs well with mid_frame_images
Style anchoring — describe lighting / color palette / texture. Example: cinematic cool tones, natural backlight, film grain
Avoid negatives — V4 does not support negative_prompt. Rewrite “no X” as a positive description
Multi-asset guidance — when using ref_images, name the tag in the prompt. Example: keep the char consistent, walking through the style scene
