"Timelapse city behind anthro animals" video Prompt Generation Comparison

This is an AI video generation comparison for image-to-video prompt:

A static shot of a quaint urban street, where three anthropomorphic animal characters sit on a bench in stylish leather jackets. In timelapse, the scene transitions from morning to dusk the lighting softening, as pedestrians quickly move in the background, hinting at the passing day. The vibrant colors of the characters’ outfits contrast against the brick pavement, creating a whimsical contemplative vibe, emphasizing the stillness of the anthropomorphic animal trio sitting amidst the super dynamic urban life around in a timelapse scene.

Camera motions and effects: static-shot timelapse

In all of my tests but this one animals get removed for whatever reason, either disappear or walk away.

Tested: June 13, 2025


Even after injecting an emphasis "super dynamic, hectic, extremely exaggeratedly fast urban life around" peoplle behind move at normal pace, there's just more of them. No change in time of day. In all tests animals talk. It's a static shot.

Perfect execution here.

This is perfection, even got the night in.

Tested: June 13, 2025


There is lighting change... but that's about it. People move slowly, camera fails to stay stationary.

Tested: June 13, 2025


No timelapse here but if you stress on 'super quickly move' and add motion blur you can achieve a vaguely similar effect.

Very cool rendering by Kling, plus sound.

not impressive at all

Tested: June 14, 2025


That's a pretty good result!

Tested: June 14, 2025


Only with emphasis added on super fast movement was I able to get something similar to timelapse. Still, pretty good for a free 2 billion parameters model.

Tested: June 15, 2025


Nope. Movement Amplitude: Auto. Style Preference: Stable.

Gave Veo 7 seconds and added 'night' to the prompt and it basically delivered.

Tested: June 19, 2025


Great result for this timelapse prompt.

This prompt tests:

Is the shot locked/static with no camera movement throughout?

Does the timelapse show lighting transitions from morning to dusk and ideally to night? Might not be enough time for night depending on the pace taken by AI model.

Do background pedestrians move quickly, indicating timelapse and urban activity?

Are the characters completely still throughout, with no movement or fidgeting?

Is the contrast between still characters and fast-moving background exaggerated and noticeable?
