Text to Video models generate videos from text descriptions alone, while Image to Video models take an existing image as input and animate or extend it into a video. This allows for more control over the visual content and style of the generated video.

Models are ranked using an Elo rating system derived from user votes in blind comparisons. Users compare videos generated from the same input image and choose the result they prefer. Higher Elo scores indicate a model is preferred more often. Vote in the Artificial Analysis Video Arena
