AI Video Extender for Continuing Existing Clips
Extend the ending of a short MP4 without starting a new video from a still frame. Upload the footage, optionally describe the next action, and add 2–10 seconds with Grok Imagine Video Extension.
Continue the Shot You Already Have
Grok reads the end of the uploaded clip and generates new footage from its final frame. The prompt describes the next action, camera move, or narrative beat.
1. Upload the source clip
Choose a continuous MP4 from 2 to 15 seconds and no larger than 32 MB. H.264, H.265, and AV1 are the codecs documented by the provider.
2. Describe the next moment
Write an optional prompt focused on what happens after the ending. When the field is empty, the tool uses a continuity instruction that asks the model to preserve subject, camera, lighting, and style.
3. Add 2–10 seconds
Choose any whole-second duration from 2 through 10. The result is one MP4 containing the original footage followed by the generated continuation.
Write Prompts for Continuity, Not a New Scene
The strongest extension prompts describe one next action while preserving the visual logic already visible in the source clip.
Continue subject movement
Example: “The cyclist keeps moving forward as the camera tracks beside them, maintaining the same speed and late-afternoon light.”
Continue a camera move
Example: “The camera slowly pulls back to reveal more of the room while the subject remains centered and the warm practical lighting stays unchanged.”
Introduce one next beat
Example: “The product rotates another quarter turn and comes to rest while the soft studio reflections continue across the surface.”
Make Short Clips More Useful Without Rebuilding Them
Extension is useful when the current shot ends too early but its subject, camera direction, and look are already worth preserving.
Longer social edits
Create extra visual time for a voiceover, caption, transition, end card, or platform-specific pacing without repeating the original clip.
Product reveal continuation
Continue a rotation, camera slide, lighting reveal, or simple product action when a generated or filmed shot needs a longer finish.
Narrative bridge shots
Add a natural next beat that can connect the source footage to another scene in a trailer, concept film, storyboard, or mood piece.
