Character Animation Prompt Prompt for Pika
This is the Pika version of the character animation prompt prompt: a character doing one clear action - the reliable way to get usable AI video. It is formatted the way Pika takes prompts best. Free — copy it, replace the bracketed parts, and paste it in.
The prompt
Push copies this prompt with a reference line naming your image, and downloads the image file — attach it in the model to complete the pair. This page stages the pair for you; it cannot upload into the model itself (sites cannot reach into each other), so the final attach happens there. The image is downscaled to at most 1024px and stored only in this browser, paired with this prompt. If browser storage is full, it is kept for this visit only.
Using this prompt with Pika
Pika works best with a short, vivid scene line plus its parameter flags for aspect. Keep the described action simple — one movement — and let the camera instruction carry the motion.
What this route costs — and how to pay less
Cost structure: subscription credits in the Pika app; generations consume credits from the plan allotment, with faster modes costing more credits per clip. The same prompt is pre-configured in this library for every major model, so you can run it on whichever route fits your budget — comparing the structures before you generate is a free way to save money.
Replace the bracketed placeholders — [CHARACTER], [ONE CLEAR ACTION], [SETTING] — with your own details before pasting.
Other versions and customization
