What makes Kling 3.0 video different?
Kling 3.0 is built as a unified multimodal system. Text, image, video, and audio all feed into a single generation process.
Kling 3.0 video is available in two variations — Standard and Pro — both with text to video and image to video options. You can create cinematic sequences, dialogue scenes, and narrative continuity using the workflow that suits your process.
Make videos from 3–15 seconds, with a choice of different aspect ratios and languages, including Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish.

- Start/End Frame: Lock the beginning and end of your video for perfect initial composition, lighting, and style with a start frame, and define the final shot with an end frame reference.

How to prompt with Kling 3.0
Kling 3.0 responds best when you think in shots, not descriptions.
Prompt like a director with these tips
Instead of one long paragraph, describe the sequence using timestamps. This gives the model structure it can follow. For example: [Shot 1] 00:00-00:04: Establishing wide shot, slow dolly forward. [Shot 2] 00:04-00:08: Medium shot, character turns and speaks. [Shot 3] 00:08-00:12: Close-up, shallow depth of field, emotional emphasis.
Provide character or object references at the start of your prompt. Name them consistently and avoid re-describing physical traits later. Let the reference do the work.
Call out camera movement, framing, and pacing. Kling 3.0 understands cinematic language, so use it!
When using dialogue, specify tone, pacing, and language per character. Short, intentional lines perform better than long monologues.
Even still frames benefit from story logic. Establish emotional progression, lighting shifts, or time-of-day changes across the series.
