Vidu Q4 Features
What the Q4 Preview adds over earlier Vidu models
- 01
Image to Video up to 4K
Animate a single photo, illustration or product shot into a 3 to 16 second clip at 540p, 720p, 1080p, 2K or 4K, guided by an optional prompt for motion and camera.
- 02
Reference-Driven Scenes
Upload up to 12 reference images for characters, wardrobe, props, products and locations, then refer to them in the prompt so each element keeps its look across the shot.
- 03
Voice References
Add up to 3 audio clips as voice or sound references so a character keeps a steady voice, a feature ShengShu introduced with the Q4 Preview.
- 04
Native Synchronized Audio
Dialogue, ambience and effects are generated together with the picture in one pass. Switch audio off when you only need silent footage for your own edit.
- 05
10-bit Color at 2K and 4K
The 2K and 4K tiers render in 10-bit color, which leaves more room for grading and keeps gradients in skies and skin tones smooth.

Stronger Acting and Motion
ShengShu reports better facial expressions, body movement, camera transitions and effects such as explosions and particles compared with Vidu Q3.
