Pika Frames: precision AI video with keyframe control

Picsart’s AI Video Generator has integrated Pika Frames, Pika Labs’ keyframe-based video generation model that gives creators precise control over AI-generated motion. Instead of relying solely on text prompts, Pika Frames lets you define visual anchor points and the AI fills in smooth, natural transitions between them. Create deterministic, high-quality video content with the creative control that prompt-only models can’t match.

  • Guide motion with keyframes
  • Connect your start and end images
  • Create smoother visual transitions

What is Pika Frames?

Pika Frames is the keyframe transition feature from Pika Labs, part of the Pika 2.2 model. It lets creators upload start and end images as visual anchor points, and the AI generates smooth, natural motion between them. Supporting up to 5 keyframes per sequence with customizable transition durations from 1 to 10 seconds each, Pika Frames gives creators deterministic control over AI video output that pure text-to-video models can’t provide. It supports 7 aspect ratios covering every major platform format.

Pika Frames capabilities

Pika Frames excels at giving creators frame-level control over AI video generation. Define up to 5 keyframes as visual anchor points and the model interpolates smooth, natural motion between them with customizable transition timing. It supports loop animations for seamless infinite cycles, PikaScenes for composing shots from separate character and environment references, and 7 aspect ratios from landscape to portrait covering every social platform format.

How Pika Frames works inside Picsart

Picsart integrates Pika Frames directly into its AI Playground and AI Video Generator, giving creators keyframe-based video control without dealing with the model directly. It works alongside tools like the AI Voice Generator and AI Video Editor, enabling creators to combine precise keyframe transitions with audio and editing for complete video production workflows.

Why creators choose Pika Frames

Pika Frames gives creators something no other AI video model offers: deterministic keyframe control over generated motion. Instead of hoping a text prompt produces the right movement, creators define exactly where the video starts and ends. This makes it ideal for product animations, morphing effects, and precise creative transitions. Integrated into Picsart’s AI Video Generator, it brings frame-level creative control to every creator’s workflow.
