Sora 2 is the motion lane of the deep-imager AI image generator, not a separate site.
Keyframe in text to image, then prompt camera motion in Video mode.
Can you start a Sora 2 clip from a still?
Yes — generate a keyframe with text to image, then switch to Video mode and select Sora 2.
Describe subject, camera move, and lighting in one paragraph. Avoid conflicting motion.
When a still is close, prefer image to image to keep composition while you change lighting, background, or crop intent. Regenerating from a blank text to image prompt usually costs more exploratory credits.
Record what worked: model name, ratio, and the exact prompt line that survived review. That notebook becomes your reusable playbook across ecommerce, social, and concept batches.
On deep-imager, treat the AI image generator as a credit-aware studio: lock aspect ratio, pick the model, then write the prompt so text to image spends once on a usable frame.
Why keep stills and video on one AI image generator?
One prompt history and one credit wallet beats exporting a PNG to another app.
Image to image can tighten the keyframe before you spend a video credit.

How long does a clip take?
Plan 30 seconds–2 minutes depending on queue and model, same band as stills.
New users get 5 free credits to sample stills; video spends from the same pool, so test a still first.

What should you check before a paid video run?
Read how credits work and pricing from $1/month so a clip does not empty a Basic 10-credit plan by surprise.
Paid plans add commercial rights for client delivery. This is not an official OpenAI web app; it is deep-imager routing.

How do you keep quality high without wasting credits?
Lock ratio first, run one strong text to image pass, then refine with image to image instead of endless fresh prompts.
Before you click Generate, confirm the credit cost on the button and the aspect ratio for the channel you will actually publish to.
If the model returns a safety or policy error, rewrite the prompt without protected names or sensitive requests rather than retrying the same blocked wording.
For team handoff, save the winner still and the prompt in your dashboard history so the next editor can Make Same or continue with image to image.

Start in text to image or image to image, pick a model such as GPT-4o image, then check pricing from $1/month and how credits work before a long run.
