Stills that belong
in the edit
Graphics that sit over video
GPT Image 2 draws fine detail and readable text, and can leave the background transparent, so a logo or a title card lies over your footage.
Then make it move
Add the still as a reference in Generate video and describe what happens next. The image becomes a shot on the same timeline.
Just say it
Type what you want the way you'd tell an editor. These are the kind of prompts that work.
Prompt: A clean product still of the bottle on white marble, soft window light, 16:9 for the end card
Prompt: A thumbnail background: a messy desk at night, monitor glow, room on the left for the title
Prompt: Our logo as a flat white mark on a transparent background, to sit over the intro
Prompt: @Image1 as a hand-drawn storyboard frame, same framing
How it works

Describe the image, or add a reference

How many images can I make at once?
One to four per run. Set Images before you click Generate. A prompt can be up to 4,000 characters.
Can I edit an image or a frame from my video?
Yes. Under Add references, choose Add current frame, Add selected clip or Add file, then describe the change and point at the image with @, like @Image1 on a rainy street at night.
Can I make an image with a transparent background?
Yes, with GPT Image 2. Set Background to Transparent before you click Generate. It's the way to make a logo or graphic to lay over video.
Can I upscale an image?
Yes, in chat: ask to upscale a still and Selects runs it through an upscaler such as Topaz or Clarity.
The Generate image app doesn't upscale, so there, generate the image at a higher Resolution instead.
Can it remove the background from an image?
Yes. Ask in chat to cut out the subject, and Selects removes the background so the still sits over your video. To make a graphic with no background from the start, use GPT Image 2 with Background set to Transparent.
Does generating images use credits?
Yes. When the model can be priced in advance, the cost shows above the Generate button. Otherwise the credits charged show on the result once it's done.
Where does the generated image go?
Onto your draft, above your video, where the playhead was when you clicked Generate. It's also added to your project and saved to your Downloads folder, or the folder you set in Save media to.
