Quick Start Setup

1
Create a free account
Go to pika.art and sign up with your Google account. The free plan gives you 250 credits per month — sufficient to produce 15 to 20 usable clips for a channel or client sample.
2
Choose your generation mode
Select 'Text to Video' for fully AI-generated clips, or 'Image to Video' to animate a still image. For faceless channels, Text to Video is the primary mode.
3
Write a strong prompt
Describe the scene in cinematic terms: subject, environment, lighting, camera movement, and mood. Example: 'Close-up of golden coins falling into a pile on a dark marble surface, dramatic side lighting, slow motion'. Specific prompts produce usable clips.
4
Select duration and aspect ratio
Choose 3 or 5 seconds per clip, and select 16:9 for YouTube or 9:16 for Shorts. Generate 3 to 4 variations and select the best one.
