Luma AI
Updated this week

Luma AI is a tool that lets you create videos from simple text prompts or photos. Just describe what you want, set a few options, and Luma AI generates it for you.

Credentials

  • Luma node has no need for credentials, however you have an option to use your unique key or token to access Luma AI’s tools and services.

Operation type

  • Generation: This tells Luma AI to create a new video based on your instructions.

  • get_generation: This means retrieving or getting a previously created video from Luma AI.

Prompt

  • This is where you give specific instructions for what you want Luma AI to create. Think of it as describing the image, object, or scene you want.

Aspect ratio

  • The aspect ratio controls the shape of the output. For example, an aspect ratio of 16:9 gives a wider view, while 1:1 makes a square image. You set this depending on your needs.

Loop

  • If you want the generated content to repeat or loop (like an animation or a 3D scene that cycles smoothly), you can set this option.

Keyframes

Keyframes help control changes over time in animations or 3D sequences.

  • Type:

    • Image: Use a specific image as a keyframe, meaning Luma AI will use that image at a certain point in the animation.

    • Generation: Use a previously generated output as a keyframe to guide changes in the animation.

  • URL: This is the link to the image or generation you want to use as a keyframe.

How to use on Scade

Generating a video from a prompt

  1. Create a text input: In the Start node, add a text input field for the prompt and connect it to the prompt field of the Luma node.

    start node


    connection

  2. Final output: Add a file input field in the end node to save the final output.

    end_node

  3. Start the flow by pressing “Start Flow” button and enjoy the result.

Generating a video from image and extend video length. (Advanced)

  1. Create a text input: In the Start node, add a text input field for the prompt and connect it to the prompt field of the Luma node.

  2. Adding motion to an image: To animate an image, create a file input in the Start node.

    start_node


    Upload your image: In the Luma node, add a keyframe with the type set to image. Press an eye icon to show it on the node.

    node settings


    start-luma

    Add the file input field in the end node and start the flow.

  3. Extending Video Length: To extend the video, add another Luma node, chose get_generation as operation type. In the Generation ID field chose input type as expression and drag {success}{id} from the left menu to the right.

    get_generation

    Add a keyframe and change type to generation. For ID field choose expression and drag {success}{id} from the left menu to the right.

    keyframe

Add add another Luma node, chose generation as operation type, for a prompt change input type to expression and add {success}{prompt} from Start Node. Add a keyframe and change type to generation. For ID field choose expression and drag {success}{id} from the left menu to the right. Now you will have 9-10 seconds video as a result.

finale

Final Output: Add a file input field in the end node to save the final output.
