Creators planning a video shot by shot
From one line to a chain of shots
Every shot is a card you can edit before anything is generated.
Break into shots
Type a one-line brief and Break into shots writes one card per shot, each with a prompt and a length. It costs 1 credit, is refunded if it fails, and you edit every card before you generate. It asks before it replaces shots you already wrote.
A card for every shot
Switch Create video to Shots on a model that supports it. Kling’s native Shots takes 2 to 6 shots of 1 to 15 seconds, 3 to 15 seconds in all, and makes them as one clip.
Chained shots
On models without native Shots, every card becomes its own clip, charged shot by shot. The first shot starts from nothing or your image. A later shot can start from the last frame of the previous shot, from your image, or from nothing.
Stills first
Turn on Stills first to get a still for each card. Make one, make them all, approve the ones you like or try again. Nothing is charged until you click, and each approved still is then animated as its own clip.
Follow and retry the chain
Your chained shots panel shows each shot as waiting, generating, done or failed, and lets you open any finished clip. If one fails, retry from that shot and the ones after it, with the price shown first.
Send it to Reel Studio
Once two clips are done, send the chain to Reel Studio to build the reel from them.
How do I make a multi shot video with the same character with AI?
Follow these steps in the app.
Write the shots
Add 2 to 6 shots, each with a prompt of up to 512 characters and a length of 1 to 15 seconds, or use Break into shots to turn a one-line brief into cards.
Keep the character
Save the character once, then type @name in every shot prompt that needs them.
Choose Native Shots or Chain
Native Shots makes one clip of 3 to 15 seconds in all; Chain makes each shot its own clip, and a later shot can start from the previous last frame, your image or nothing.
Approve stills, then render
Approve one still per shot first, run the clips, retry from a failed shot, and send two or more finished clips to Reel Studio to join them.

How consistent does the character stay across shots in an AI multi shot video?
A saved character called with @name, a start from the previous last frame and an approved still per shot all help, but consistency is not certain: the model can drift, so check each shot and retry the one that does. Limits: 2 to 6 shots, 15 seconds in all for Native Shots, and 512 characters per shot prompt.
Limits today
- Shots: 2 to 6 per Native Shots clip, 1 to 15 seconds each, 3 to 15 seconds in all.
- Prompts: up to 512 characters per shot.
- Character: a saved character called with @name keeps the same person in the prompt; the model can still drift, so check each shot.
- Chain mode: each shot is its own clip and is charged shot by shot; a later shot can start from the previous last frame, your image or nothing.
- Credits: Break into shots needs a verified email and is refunded on failure; each shot costs what the chosen model charges.
What works best
- A saved character with a clear reference image, used by @name in every shot that includes them.
- One action per shot, in short prompts, so each shot has a single thing to get right.
- Chain mode with a shot started from the previous last frame when two shots must look continuous.
- Approve the stills first: they show you the character and setting before any clip is paid for.
Multi-shot AI video FAQ
How do I make a video with several shots?+
Open Create video, choose a model that offers Shots, and add a card for each shot with its own prompt and length. Or type one line, use Break into shots, and edit the cards it writes.
What does Break into shots do?+
You type a one-line brief and it writes one card per shot, text only. It costs 1 credit, needs a verified email, and is refunded if it fails. If your cards already have text it asks before replacing them.
What is the difference between native Shots and a chain?+
With native Shots (Kling), all the shots are made together as one clip, 2 to 6 shots and 3 to 15 seconds in all. On models without it, the chain makes each shot its own clip, one after another, charged shot by shot. In a chain, a shot after the first can start from the last frame of the previous clip, from your own image, or from nothing.
What does Stills first do?+
It shows a still for each card before any clip is made. You can make one still or all of them, approve the ones you like and try again on the rest. Nothing is charged until you click, and every approved still is then animated as its own clip.
What if one shot fails, and can I turn the chain into a reel?+
The chained shots panel marks a failed shot. You can retry from that shot, which also runs the shots after it, and the panel shows the price before you do. When two clips are done, Send to Reel Studio starts a Reel Studio session from them.
Can I keep the same character in every shot?+
Yes. Save the character, then type @ and its name in a shot prompt to bring it in. See the Consistent AI Character page. Canvas can also keep one face across cards with an Influencer card.
Do I need a subscription, and what does a multi-shot video cost?+
No subscription is needed to try it. Each shot costs what the model you picked charges for that clip, and the price shows before you run. A chain is charged shot by shot, and stills made on the Stills first board are charged when you make them.
Is there a free AI tool to make a multi shot video with the same character?+
Yes, you can start free. Create a free account (20 sign-up credits, no card), save a character and write 2 to 6 shots. There is no subscription: each shot costs what the chosen model charges, and credit packs start at $2.99.
