Attributes


modelenum:str *

Select the model quality. Use 'dop-preview' for high-quality renders, or 'dop-lite' for faster previews.

Allowed values:


promptstr *

Enter a detailed description for the animation. Use 'A futuristic skyline at sunset' for cityscapes.


seedint *

Set random seed for consistent outputs. Change seed for varied results up to 1,000,000.

min : 1,

max : 1000000


motion_idstr *

Choose an animation style. 'Cinematic' for dramatic effects or '360 Orbit' for full scene views.


motion_strengthfloat ( default: 0.8 )

Control motion intensity; 0.3 for subtle effects, 1 for dramatic motion.

min : 0,

max : 1


image_urlsstr ( default: https://segmind-resources.s3.amazonaws.com/input/5d6b3638-b366-496c-847e-4eb91407b8df-128b5b18cad59a0885903ac2bba97087.png )

Include reference image URLs. Use high-res images for improved detail.


enhance_promptboolean *

Enable to refine prompts. Improves output when set to true.


check_nsfwboolean ( default: true )

Enable NSFW filter. Set true to block explicit content.

To keep track of your credit usage, you can inspect the response headers of each API call. The x-remaining-credits property will indicate the number of remaining credits in your account. Ensure you monitor this value to avoid any disruptions in your API usage.

Generate [DoP] Effective Usage Guide

Generate [DoP] is an AI-driven Image-to-Video animation model from Higgsfield that brings static images to life. Follow this guide to select the right parameters and get consistent, high-quality results for your project.

1. Essential Parameters

  • β€’model
    β€’ dop-lite: Fast, lower-res previews (use when iterating)
    β€’ dop-preview: Balanced speed & quality (ideal for most social and marketing content)
    β€’ dop-turbo: Maximum quality & speed (for final production renders)
  • β€’prompt
    Provide a concise, vivid description of the scene and motion, e.g.,
    β€œA product overhead shot rotating slowly with soft lighting.”
  • β€’motion_id
    Choose a preset that matches your vision:
    – Cinematic (e16ce575…) for dramatic pans
    – 360 Orbit (ea035f68…) for product showcases
    – Freeze (9390496…) for stop-motion style
  • β€’motion_strength
    Control the intensity (0 to 1):
    – 0.3–0.5 for subtle movement
    – 0.6–0.8 for medium dynamism
    – 0.9–1.0 for high impact
  • β€’seed (advanced)
    Set a value (1–1,000,000) to reproduce or slightly vary outputs.
  • β€’enhance_prompt (advanced)
    Enable (true) to refine complex scenes automatically.
  • β€’check_nsfw (advanced)
    Keep enabled (true) for built-in safety filtering.

2. Use Case Recommendations

  1. β€’Quick Prototyping
    β€’ Model: dop-lite
    β€’ motion_strength: 0.3
    β€’ Seed: random
    β€’ Enhance_prompt: false
  2. β€’Social Media / Content Creation
    β€’ Model: dop-preview
    β€’ motion_strength: 0.6–0.8
    β€’ Motion: 360 Orbit or Dolly In
    β€’ Enhance_prompt: true
  3. β€’E-commerce & Product Showcases
    β€’ Model: dop-preview or dop-turbo
    β€’ motion_strength: 0.5–0.7
    β€’ Motion: 360 Orbit, Zoom In
    β€’ Seed: fixed for consistency
  4. β€’Education & Explainer Videos
    β€’ Model: dop-preview
    β€’ motion_strength: 0.4–0.6
    β€’ Motion: Timelapse Landscape, Focus Change
  5. β€’Final Production & VFX
    β€’ Model: dop-turbo
    β€’ motion_strength: 0.8–1.0
    β€’ Motion: Cinematic, Bullet Time

3. Prompt Crafting Tips

  • β€’Be specific: mention camera angles, lighting style, and motion type.
  • β€’Use high-resolution inputs with clear subjects.
  • β€’Reference real-world analogies: β€œlike a drone flying through a forest at dusk.”
  • β€’Experiment with combining descriptive terms and presets for unique looks.

4. Consistency & Reproducibility

  • β€’Use the same seed across renders to maintain motion style and pacing.
  • β€’Lock in your motion_id and motion_strength once you find a winning combination.
  • β€’Archive presets and prompt examples in a shared style guide for team collaboration.

By choosing the right quality tier, presets, and prompt details, Generate [DoP] can seamlessly fit into any production pipelineβ€”from rapid prototyping to polished final renders. Happy animating!
