Lesson 1.1

The video model lineup, compared

Veo, Seedance, Kling and the rest: what each is actually for.

Notes

ImagineArt hosts some thirty-five video models. They are not interchangeable: each has a personality, a price, and a job it is best at. This lesson is the working comparison.

The short version

Model family

Personality

Best at

Veo-class

The realism benchmark

Physics, camera language

Kling

Motion quality, 4K tier

Long coherent hero shots

Seedance

Fast and cheap

Drafting, volume work

Sora-class

Imaginative, stylized

Surreal and worldbuilding briefs

Grok Video

Fastest on the menu

Test cells in seconds

One brief, every model: the comparison grid

A fair test protocol

  1. One prompt, every candidate model, identical settings.

  2. Judge on: subject fidelity, motion plausibility, prompt adherence, artefacts.

  3. Note cost per usable second, the real metric for production.

Reading the results

Expect a split verdict: one model wins realism, another wins adherence, a third wins price. Production means assigning shots to models the way a director assigns scenes to units.
