Tips for Better Reference-to-Video Results
How to choose and combine references for the most consistent, high-quality output.
Use References with Consistent Lighting
Reference images and videos with similar lighting conditions produce more cohesive output. Mixing bright outdoor and dark indoor references can create inconsistent results.
Choose References That Share a Visual Style
The AI blends the style of all your references. For the most consistent output, use references that share a similar color palette, contrast level, and visual aesthetic.
Keep Reference Videos Short and Focused
Short reference clips (5–15 seconds) with a single, clear motion work better than long clips with multiple scene changes. The AI extracts the dominant motion pattern.
Use the Primary Image for Subject Control
Set a primary image when you want the AI to focus on a specific subject. Without a primary image, the AI generates content based on the combined style of all references.
Combine Image and Video References
Use image references to guide visual style and video references to guide motion. This combination gives you the most precise control over both the look and the movement of the output.
Enable Prompt Expansion for Complex Styles
When working with complex or nuanced reference styles, enable prompt expansion to let AI add descriptive language that helps bridge the gap between your references and the desired output.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about AI reference-to-video generation.
What types of reference files can I upload?
You can upload up to 5 reference images (PNG, JPG, WEBP) and up to 3 reference video clips (MP4, MOV). Each video clip should be between 1 and 30 seconds long.
What is the primary image used for?
The primary image sets the main subject of the generated video. The AI will animate or incorporate this subject while matching the style of your reference images and videos.
Do I need to upload both images and videos?
No. You can use only reference images, only reference videos, or a combination of both. At least one reference video is required for motion-guided generation.
How does the prompt work with references?
The prompt describes the video style, motion, and mood in plain text. It works together with your references — the references guide the visual style while the prompt guides the content and action.
What is prompt expansion?
Prompt expansion is an optional feature that uses AI to automatically enrich and extend your text prompt before generation. It adds detail, context, and cinematic language to help produce higher-quality results.
How long will the generated video be?
Video length depends on the model and settings selected. Available duration options are shown before you generate.
How many credits does a generation cost?
Credit cost depends on the model, resolution, and duration selected. The required credits are shown before you generate, so there are no surprises.
Is my data private?
Yes. Your uploaded files and generated videos are processed securely and are not used to train AI models or shared with third parties. Files are automatically deleted after processing.
Can I use generated videos commercially?
Yes. Videos generated using Happy Horse Go are yours to use for commercial purposes. Check the terms of service for full details on usage rights.
How many reference files should I upload for best results?
For most use cases, 2–3 reference images and 1–2 reference videos produce the best balance of style consistency and generation quality. Too many references can dilute the style signal and produce inconsistent output.
Can I use screenshots from a film or TV show as references?
Technically yes, but be mindful of copyright. Using copyrighted material as a reference to generate commercial content may raise legal issues. For commercial projects, use your own assets or royalty-free reference materials.
What is the difference between reference-to-video and text-to-video?
Text-to-video generates content purely from a written description, giving the AI full creative freedom. Reference-to-video uses your uploaded images and videos to constrain the visual style and motion, producing output that is consistent with your specific reference materials.
