What is Luma Ray 2 I2V?

Luma Ray 2 I2V is Luma AI's image-to-video model that animates still images with cinematic quality and an optional end-frame feature. Users can specify both a start image and an end image, giving precise control over the animation's trajectory. This start-to-end frame control is unique among major I2V models. At $0.50 per generation at 540p/5s, pricing follows the same resolution and duration tiers as the T2V variant. The optional end_image_url parameter enables controlled transitions between two defined visual states, useful for product reveals, scene transitions, and morphing effects. Same wide aspect ratio support including 21:9. Compared to standard I2V models that only accept a starting image, the optional end-frame control provides significantly more creative direction over the animation. Against first-and-last-frame models that require both frames, the optional nature of the end frame provides flexibility. Best suited for controlled product animation, scene transitions between defined states, and marketing animations where start-to-end frame control enhances creative precision. Available on FairStack at infrastructure cost plus a 20% platform fee.
