Pros

  • Director-level control
  • Motion brush is unique
  • High realism

Cons

  • Expensive experimentation
  • Faces can still distort

First Impressions

The interface feels like professional editing software. I tried the 'Motion Brush'—painting over a cloud to make it move left—and it worked. It gives you control that simple text prompts just can't.

Best Feature: Motion Brush

This is the game changer. Instead of praying the AI moves the right object, you specifically tell it what to move and how. It allows for actual directing.

The Verdict

The tool for filmmakers. It requires patience and credits to get the perfect shot, but it offers the most control in the market.
