Welcome to the SkyReels V3 repository! This is the official release of our flagship video generation model, built upon a unified multimodal in-context learning framework. SkyReels V3 natively supports three core generative capabilities: 1) multi-subject video generation from reference images, 2) video generation guided by audio, and 3) video-to-video generation.
The demos above showcase videos generated using our SkyReels-V3 unified multimodal in-context learning framework.

Reference-to-Video is a model that synthesizes coherent video sequences from 1 to 4 reference images and a text prompt. It excels at maintaining strong identity fidelity and narrative consistency for characters, objects, and backgrounds.

💡 Notes:
- The
--task_typeparameter must be set toreference_to_video.- The
--ref_imgsparameter accepts 1 to 4 reference images. When providing multiple images, please separate their paths or URLs with commas.- The recommended output specification for this model is a 5-second video at 720p and 24 fps.
Extends existing videos while preserving motion continuity, scene coherence, and subject identity.

Using it via the API
Once AxForge deploys skyreels-v2v for you, it answers on the OpenAI-compatible API — the same base URL and keys as every other model. (skyreels-v2v below is illustrative; you get the exact model name on deployment.)
$ curl -sS https://api.axforge.ai/v1/videos/generations \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $AXFORGE_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"model":"skyreels-v2v","prompt":"a drone shot over a forest"}'
