# Marey (by Moonvalley)
### **Overview**
High-quality video generation and motion-transfer model for short cinematic clips.
***
### **Quick facts**
* **Modes:** Text → Video · Image → Video · Motion / Pose Transfer (video → video)
* **Default clip length:** 5s (supports 10s)
* **Aspect ratios:** Auto, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4, 9:16
* **Licensing:** Trained only on fully licensed, high-resolution footage (no scraped or user-submitted data)
***
### **What it’s great for**
* Short cinematic pieces and motion studies
* Turning still images into motion (image → video)
* Transferring motion or pose from reference videos to targets
***
### **Example outputs**
{% hint style="info" %}
Hero frame — static hero still

#### **Copy-and-paste prompts**
```
A lone astronaut walking along a moonlit cliff, slow dolly in, cinematic lighting, film grain — 5s — 16:9
```
```
Marble statue by the sea slowly coming to life, subtle camera orbit, warm cinematic grade — 10s — 1:1
```
```
Close-up portrait, gentle breathing and head turn, handheld camera feel, soft rim light — 5s — 4:3
```
```
Motion transfer: apply running motion from reference video to a still image of a red bicycle in an empty city square — 5s — 16:9
```

### **Output options**
| Option | Values / notes |
| ------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Duration | 5s (default), 10s (longer clips may cost more) |
| Aspect ratio | 16:9 (1920×1080), 4:3 (1536×1152), 1:1 (1152×1152), 3:4 (1152×1536), 9:16 (1080×1920) |

### **Prompt tips**
* Specify **motion** explicitly: e.g., “slow dolly in”, “camera orbit”, “subtle head turn”.
* Mention **shot specifics** when important: camera framing, lens feel, lighting, and duration.
* Use seed for repeatable variants or test different seeds to explore diversity.
***
### **Safety**
Marey is built for professional filmmaking workflows and emphasizes ethical sourcing and legal clarity for commercial use.
