Motion

The Motion app turns a still image into a short cinematic video clip: a pan, push-in, pull-out or tilt across a product shot, a render, a property photo or a hero image. Agents iterate with cheap low-resolution drafts until you are happy, then render the final once at 1080p or 4K. Renders are asynchronous, taking roughly one to two and a half minutes, and every finished render is kept in a searchable index with its source, prompt, move, resolution and cost.

Note

Motion ships as a marketplace tool app. There is nothing to connect: the rendering credentials are held by Sprigr, and once the app is installed any agent that has it can render. Drafts are cheap; the final render is the paid step, and the agent confirms with you before running it.

Prerequisites

• Admin or Owner role in your Sprigr Team organisation to install the app.
• A still image the agent can reach: a file uploaded in chat, a file in your Sprigr workspace, or a URL.

Installing

1. Install the app

   Sign in to team.sprigr.com, open Apps in the sidebar, find Motion under Available, and install it. No secrets are requested. See Installing Apps.

2. Make it available to the right agents

   Scope the install to the agents that should be able to render, since finals cost money.

3. Try a draft

   Upload an image and ask your agent to make it move. The app’s settings page lists recent renders with their kind, camera move, model, status and video.

Try asking your agent

“Turn this product photo into a slow push-in clip.”

“Same shot, but pan left and make it a bit slower.”

“That one is good. Render the final at 1080p.”

How a render works

1. Create a project from one or more source images (create_project). The image can be the first frame, a subject reference, or first and last frames.
2. Draft a cheap low-resolution preview with a camera move: pan_left, pan_right, push_in, pull_out, tilt_up or tilt_down, with an optional one-line hint about the motion or mood. The app wraps the hint in a steady, photorealistic cinematic style, so short hints work best.
3. Revise from a previous render’s recipe with tweaks, as many times as needed. Drafts and revisions are the cheap steps.
4. Finalize the chosen draft in high quality at 1080p, or 4K, which adds an AI upscale of the 1080p final and takes a few extra minutes. The agent confirms before this step because it is the paid one.
5. Collect the result: renders take about 60 to 150 seconds, and the agent checks back with get_render until the clip is ready, then shares the video link. list_renders shows a project’s drafts and finals.

Indicative retail cost at the time of writing is about $2 for a 1080p final and about $4 for a 4K final; a draft is a small fraction of that. Costs appear on your usage.

Common use cases

• Product video for a listing. A single product photo becomes a subtle push-in clip for the product page or an ad.
• Property and architecture. A render or listing photo becomes a slow pan for a social post.
• Social content at volume. A workflow drafts a clip for each new hero image and posts the ones a person approves.
• Pitch and presentation. Static slides gain a moving cover shot.

Troubleshooting

The clip is not ready yet Renders are asynchronous and take one to two and a half minutes; 4K finals take longer. The agent polls and reports when it is done. Ask again if you have been waiting longer than five minutes.

The motion is not what I wanted Ask for a revise with a different camera move or a short hint. Long prompts do not help; the app applies the cinematic style itself.

The agent will not finalize Finalize is confirmation-gated because it costs money. Tell the agent which draft to finalize and confirm when asked.

4K is unavailable The 4K upscale is optional infrastructure; if it is not enabled, 1080p finals still work.
