# Make a motion video Write a prompt, pick a brand, shape, length and quality level, and send it. Every control in the Motion box, explained. Source: https://infinall.ai/docs/motion/make-a-motion-video Last checked: 2026-10-26 ## What it is The Motion box is where you describe a video and choose how it should look. You pick a brand, a shape, a length and a quality level, then send the prompt. ## Who can use it Everyone. Free and Pro accounts get the same controls. All three quality levels, **Standard**, **Pro** and **Max**, can be picked on both plans. ## Cost Uses credits. Motion is charged on what the video uses, so longer videos cost more. The quality menu shows an estimate for each level and a note that the price is usage based. Before work starts, the app holds 10 credits from your balance. When the video ends you pay for what it used and the rest goes back. See [Price before you confirm](/docs/credits/price-before-you-confirm). ## Where to find it In a **Studio** project, open the **What to make** switch above the prompt box and choose **Motion**. On **Home**, choose the **Motion** tab. Home sends you to a new Studio project with your prompt, shape and quality level already set. ## Buttons and controls ![The Motion composer with the brand chip, aspect ratio and length menus, the prompt box, voice typing, the quality menu and the send button.](/docs/screens/motion/make-a-motion-video.webp) | # | Name in the app | What it does | Plan | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | Motion | The tab in **What to make** that switches the box to motion videos. | Both | | 2 | Select brand | The brand chip.

A ratio such as 9:16, or words such as vertical, story, reel, square or landscape, decide it. With no clue it uses 16:9. | | 16:9 | Wide video, for websites, presentations and YouTube. | | 1:1 | Square video, for feed posts. | | 9:16 | Tall full-screen video, for stories and reels. | | 4:5 | Slightly tall video, for Instagram and Meta feeds. | **Length** | Value | What it does | | --- | --- | | Auto | The length comes from your prompt. Say "15 s" or "10-second" in the prompt to set it. | | 10s, 15s, 20s, 30s, 45s, 60s | Asks for that length. | **Motion model (quality level)** | Value | Tip in the menu | What it is for | | --- | --- | --- | | Standard | Fast, great quality | Quick drafts and simple videos. Lowest estimate. | | Pro | Best reasoning (default) | The default. Better planning for busier videos. | | Max | Most capable | The most careful result. Highest estimate. | The menu shows an estimated range for each level and this note: "Usage based: you pay for what the video uses. Longer videos cost more." **Brand.** With a brand picked, the video can use its name, colours, logo, tagline and approved claims. The brand needs a confirmed version. See [Use your brand](/docs/brand-brain/use-your-brand). ## Limits - Length runs from 10 to 60 seconds when you pick it yourself. - The box is locked from the moment you send until the video has finished building, so you cannot send a second prompt in the meantime. - A prompt cannot be empty. **Generate motion video** stays grey until you type. ## When something goes wrong | Message in the app | What it means | What to do | | --- | --- | --- | | Add a short description for your motion project. | You sent from **Home** with an empty box. | Type a prompt or click a **Start with** card. | | Failed to create motion project. | **Home** could not open a new Studio project. | Try again. | | Couldn't make that motion video. | The video could not start or finish. This includes a balance that is too low to start. | Check **Settings > Credits**, then send again. Open the activity card to see which step stopped. | | Answered. | Your message was not read as a video brief, so no video was made. | Write it as a video brief: scenes, words on screen, length. | ## Questions ### Which quality level should I choose? Start with **Pro**, the default. Use **Standard** for quick tries. Use **Max** when the video matters most. All three are open on Free and Pro. ### Why does the card not appear right away? It does appear at once. A card lands on the canvas as soon as you send, and its stage text shows **Starting...** until the plan is ready. ### Can I pick the length in the prompt instead? Yes. Leave **Length** on **Auto** and write "15 s" in the prompt. You can also set a shape the same way, for example "9:16". ### Is the price exact? No. Motion is charged on usage, so you see an estimate in the quality menu. The final charge is in **Settings > Credits**, and the chat says how many credits the video used when it finishes. ### Can I make two videos at once? No. The box is locked while a video builds. Send the next prompt when the first one is ready. ### Does the prompt box remember my words? After a successful send the box clears. If the send fails, your words stay so you can try again.
