Vidu Q3 AI Video Generator

Vidu Q3 is Shengshu Technology’s general video series. The model map marks text-to-video and image-to-video, with synchronized audio on Q3 Pro, Mix, Drama, Ad and Turbo, clips up to 16 seconds, topping out at 1080p. It is not Vidu Q4 Preview, and it is not the whole Vidu family page. Q3 is not available on ImgToVid.

01 — Capabilities

Text and image, 1080p — not Q4’s 4K stack

Q3 is the generalist. Q4 Preview is image and reference only, up to 4K. Do not read Q4’s 15 stills or 4K back onto Q3.

  1. 01

    Text-to-video still lives on Q3

    The Vidu map marks text-to-video on Q3 (and Q1). Q4 Preview does not take a blank prompt. If the job starts from words, Q3 is the Vidu id, not Q4.

  2. 02

    Up to 16 seconds, at 1080p

    Q3 reaches 16 seconds. The table tops Q3 at 1080p. 2K and 4K are Q4 Preview listings. Frame rate is listed as 24 fps across Q3 and Q4 Preview.

  3. 03

    Audio on Q3 Pro, Mix, Drama, Ad and Turbo

    Those Q3 ids list synchronized audio-video output. Q3 Ad is documented for 5–8 second clips with shot changes. Q3 Drama is the storytelling variant.

  4. 04

    Not the 15-image Q4 pack

    Q4 Preview takes 1–15 images and up to 3 voices. Q3 does not list that stack. Q3 is the generalist; Q4 is the reference stack.

02 — Prompt to output

Prompts that match the clips above

Each prompt describes the picture on its card. “Use this prompt” sends that text to Create. The generator on this page runs Seedance 2.5, not Vidu Q3.

  • 01 · Portrait

    PromptClose-up of a young man with curly hair in a grey knit sweater, soft window light. He glances away, then smiles. Slow push-in, shallow depth of field.

  • 02 · Product

    PromptA white leather sneaker on a pale grey studio backdrop, soft diffused light. The camera orbits slowly. Stitching stays sharp, the look stays minimal.

  • 03 · Street

    PromptA slow dolly down a cobblestone lane in an old European village. Climbing roses on stone walls, café tables in morning sun, a few people walking in the distance.

  • 04 · Character

    PromptA young woman with shoulder-length brown hair in an olive t-shirt, late-afternoon gold light. She turns her head and looks off. Breeze in her hair, a handheld feel.

03 — Where it fits

Jobs that pick Q3, not Q4, not “Vidu” in the abstract

Q3 if you have a prompt or one still and 1080p is enough. Q4 Preview when you have stills and voices to lock, or you need 2K/4K. The family page covers both.

  • You only have a prompt

    You only have a prompt

    That is a Q3 job on Vidu’s map. Q4 Preview will not take it. Do not plan a text-only pipeline on the flagship id.

  • A general 1080p clip with audio

    A general 1080p clip with audio

    Q3 Pro, Mix, Drama, Ad and Turbo list synchronized audio. Sixteen seconds at 1080p is the Q3 ceiling in the table.

  • A short ad with shot changes

    A short ad with shot changes

    Q3 Ad is listed for 5–8 second clips with shot changes. Q3 Drama is the storytelling variant. Both sit under Q3, not Q4.

  • You needed 4K or 15 references

    You needed 4K or 15 references

    That is Q4 Preview. This page is Q3. Do not read those limits onto this id.

04 — Verdict

What Vidu’s Q3 docs actually list

Strengths

  • Text-to-video and image-to-video
  • Up to 16 seconds, 1080p, 24 fps
  • Synchronized audio on Q3 Pro, Mix, Drama, Ad and Turbo
  • Q3 Ad 5–8s with shot changes; Q3 Drama for story

Trade-offs

  • Tops out at 1080p — 4K is Q4 Preview only
  • No 15-image / 3-voice reference stack on Q3
  • Q1 is 5s and Q2 is 1–10s; do not treat every Vidu id as 16s
  • Vidu Q3 is not available on ImgToVid

05 — Side by side

Vidu Q3, Veo 3.1 and Kling 4.0

Entry method, length and picture size are where these three stop lining up. Vidu Q3 numbers are from Vidu’s model map. Q4 Preview is a different page.

06 — How it works

Start a clip on ImgToVid

  1. Step 1

    Describe one shot

    Subject, action, camera. If you wanted Vidu’s Q3 text route, say that in the prompt. Vidu Q3 will not be the model that runs it.

  2. Step 2

    Use the generator on this page

    It runs Seedance 2.5, because Vidu Q3 is not offered here. The prompt and the settings carry into Create.

  3. Step 3

    Generate in Create

    Membership and credits are checked there. Coming back to this page does not switch the model over to Vidu Q3.

07 — FAQ

Vidu Q3, in plain terms

What is Vidu Q3?

Vidu Q3 is Shengshu Technology’s general video series. The map marks text-to-video and image-to-video, with synchronized audio on Q3 Pro, Mix, Drama, Ad and Turbo. It sits below Vidu Q4 Preview, launched October 7, 2026.

How long is a Vidu Q3 clip?

Up to 16 seconds. Q1 is 5 seconds. Q2 is 1–10 seconds. Q3 Ad is listed at 5–8 seconds with shot changes. Do not copy Q4’s 3–16 image-to-video window onto every Q3 id.

Does Vidu Q3 generate audio?

Q3 Pro, Mix, Drama, Ad and Turbo list synchronized audio-video output. Treat those ids as the audio line, not every older Vidu id.

Q3 or Q4 Preview?

Q3 if you need text-to-video or a general 1080p clip with audio. Q4 Preview if you have stills and voices to lock, or you need 2K/4K. Q4 Preview does not take text only. The family overview is on the Vidu page.

Can I generate Vidu Q3 videos on ImgToVid?

No. The generator on this page runs Seedance 2.5 so you can draft a shot. Vidu Q3 itself is marked coming soon.

Can I use the results commercially?

Commercial use of anything you generate on ImgToVid depends on your plan. Check Pricing and our Terms before you publish, and make sure prompts and uploads do not infringe someone else’s rights.

Vidu Q3 is not the button on this page

You can still draft the shot. The generator runs Seedance 2.5, and the prompt goes with you into Create.
