Motion blur and flickering can occur when the model interprets fast action or high-contrast lighting changes. To reduce these artifacts, add 'smooth motion, stable, clear focus' to your prompt and include 'flickering, jittery, motion blur' in the negative prompt field. Lowering the complexity of the scene—fewer moving elements, simpler backgrounds—also helps. If issues persist, try adjusting the seed or simplifying the prompt. For ultra-stable, high-fidelity motion,
Runway Gen-4.5 offers advanced motion control and temporal consistency, though at a higher credit cost. Pika v2.2 is optimized for speed and accessibility, so some motion artifacts are trade-offs for fast generation.
