## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability x402engine-image-to-video-animation-kling-v3-pro-d359d1ee -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Take this photo — https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1500530855697-b586d89ba3ee?w=1280 — and animate it into a 5-second video with a slow cinematic push-in while warm light moves across the scene, avoiding blur or distortion.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to animate a single static image into a short cinematic video clip using Kling V3 Pro quality, with fine-grained control over motion direction and camera behavior via a text prompt. Prefer it over text-to-video endpoints when you already have a specific source image to use as the first frame. Ideal for product photography, travel content, real estate, and social media where a 5-second clip with deterministic pricing ($0.70 USDC flat) is required.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or inaccessible image URL returns an error (image must be publicly reachable via HTTP/HTTPS)
- Overly vague motion prompts may produce generic or unintended animation results
- Image format not supported by Kling V3 Pro may cause processing failure
- Network timeout if the source image is slow to fetch
- Payment of 0.7 USDC not fulfilled via x402 protocol results in 402 rejection
