#Use it in Studio
Step 1: Open Create Video
In Studio, open Create Video. Sign in when the Studio asks, because every generation needs an account.
Step 2: Choose Luma Ray 2
Open the model picker, which groups models by maker, and choose Luma Ray 2.
Step 3: Write your prompt
Describe the clip. To start from a picture, attach one start image (JPEG, PNG or WEBP, up to 20 MB).
Step 4: Set the output
Set aspect ratio, resolution, length and Count from 1 to 4.
Step 5: Check the price and generate
The Studio shows the credit price for your settings. Videos run in the background: the card updates in place when the clip is ready, and the clip is saved to your Library.
#Limits
- You need to be signed in to generate. Luma Ray 2 is available on every plan, including Free; credits are the limit.
- One start image only. The Studio has no end frame, no multiple reference images and no video-to-video input.
- A video that has not finished within 30 minutes is marked failed and refunded. A failed generation is refunded, and the Studio does not run a different model in its place.
