# Kling 3.0

Kling 3.0 is Kuaishou's image-to-video model from its Kling VIDEO 3.0 series, announced in February 2026. In Sloosh it animates a start image, optionally toward an end image, into a 3 to 15 second clip with optional sound and dialogue. It suits prompt-led scenes and scripted moments from one photo.

## Best for

- Bringing a product or lifestyle photo to life with a scripted moment. Kling recommends 3.0 for "prompt-led scripts, Multi-Shot scenes, flexible duration, and broad creative exploration" ([Kling](https://kling.ai/blog/kling-v3-vs-o3-comparison-guide)).
- Short scenes with spoken lines: Kling lists dialogue in Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean and Spanish, with dialects and accents ([Kling](https://kling.ai/quickstart/klingai-video-3-model-user-guide)).
- Scenes with three or more characters, which Kling says 3.0 handles better than 2.6 ([Kling](https://kling.ai/quickstart/klingai-video-3-model-user-guide)).
- Keeping signs or logos from the start image, which Kling says the model can preserve ([Kling](https://kling.ai/quickstart/klingai-video-3-model-user-guide)).
- Phone photo to product clip.

## How to use Kling 3.0 in Sloosh

1. Open [Video in Studio](https://sloosh.ai/studio/video?video-model=kling-3.0) with Kling 3.0 in the model chip.
2. Add a start image (required). Crop it to the shape you want: the clip follows it.
3. Optionally add an end image.
4. Pick the length, 3 to 15 seconds, and leave sound on or switch it off.
5. Write what happens from the image: the action, the camera, any dialogue. Press Generate; the price shows first.

## Kling 3.0 prompting tips

- Mark moments by second for longer clips, e.g. "At the 4th second, the camera accelerates forward" ([Kling](https://kling.ai/quickstart/klingai-video-3-model-user-guide)).
- Give each line of dialogue the speaker, tone and language in parentheses, then the line in quotes ([Kling](https://kling.ai/quickstart/klingai-video-3-model-user-guide)).
- With several characters, pair each character directly with their lines ([Kling](https://kling.ai/quickstart/klingai-video-3-model-user-guide)).
- Describe camera moves explicitly: zooms, pans, tracking shots, freezes ([Kling](https://kling.ai/quickstart/klingai-video-3-model-user-guide)).
- Treat the start image as an anchor and don't describe it again; one subject action and one camera move per clip ([Sloosh docs](https://sloosh.ai/docs/kling-3-0.md)).

## Kling 3.0 example prompts

**Prompt 1**

```text
A hand reaches in and unscrews the black dropper from the amber serum bottle, lifts it and lets one golden drop fall back into the bottle. The camera stays close and still; soft studio light. Sound: a soft glass clink and a quiet drip.
```

**Prompt 2**

```text
The potter looks up from the wheel and smiles. Potter (warm, proud, English): "Every one of these is made by hand." Slow push-in. Sound: the wheel humming, clay on wet hands.
```

**Prompt 3**

```text
The chef in the start image plates the dish and steps back. At the 5th second, the camera tilts down to the plate as steam rises. Sound: a sizzle, a soft kitchen hum.
```
