About this model
Vidu Q3 Image-to-Video is the image-conditioned member of Shengshu Technology's (生数科技) Vidu Q3 video generation family. Rather than starting from text alone, it takes a static input image — optionally guided by a text prompt — and animates it into a short moving clip. It is part of the broader Vidu suite of generative video tools developed by Shengshu, a Chinese AI company.
Within the current generation, the model sits alongside its sibling Vidu Q3 text-to-video system, which generates clips directly from written prompts. The two share the same Q3 branding and release window, offering complementary entry points — image-driven versus prompt-driven — into the same family of video generation capabilities.
According to its catalog positioning, Vidu emphasizes efficient video generation with particularly strong support for anime and stylized output, making the image-to-video variant a fit for animating illustrations, character art, and other non-photoreal source images into motion.
Detailed independently verified specifications and benchmark results for this model are not available from primary or top-evaluator sources at the time of writing, so this description is limited to its confirmed role: an image-to-video model in Shengshu's Vidu Q3 lineup, released in January 2026.
