Model pair: Kling AI and Step-Video-TI2V
The docs of Kling AI and Step-Video-TI2V part on 4 of the six camera points: framing, cuts, frames and motion amount. They read alike on camera moves and negative prompt. As of 2026-09-25.
| Field | Kling AI | Step-Video-TI2V |
|---|---|---|
| How a camera move is asked for | Words in the prompt | Words in the prompt |
| Shot sizes and angles in the docs | Shown in examples | None in the docs |
| Cuts inside one generation | Several shots per clip | None in the docs |
| Start and end frames | First and last frame | First frame only |
| A negative prompt | None in the docs | None in the docs |
| A setting for how much the picture moves | None in the docs | A motion setting |
Inclusion rule. The six points every model on the register is read on. Order. The order the points take on every model page.
1How the two differ
Kling AI reads “Several shots per clip” on cuts inside a clip, while Step-Video-TI2V's docs say nothing about cuts inside a clip. Kling AI reads “First and last frame” on start and end frames, while Step-Video-TI2V reads “First frame only” on start and end frames. Only Step-Video-TI2V documents a motion setting. Kling AI's docs use 10 of the site's camera words and Step-Video-TI2V's use 7, sharing pan, tilt, zoom and orbit or arc.

Cuts inside one generation
VIDEO 3.0 will automatically plan scene transitions, shot framing, and camera angle changes based on the prompts.

A setting for how much the picture moves
Kling AI: the docs read do not cover this.
The default motion_score = 5 is suitable for general use.

| Camera point | SceneMixer | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Shot sizes and angles in the docs | Each numbered shot in a segment carries a framing change, written by the storyboard step | SceneMixer, AI storyboard generator page |
| Cuts inside one generation | A segment holds several numbered shots and its length is the sum of them | SceneMixer, AI storyboard generator page |
