Wan AI 2.7 Reference-to-Video: Image to Video Online
Bottom line
Feed it reference images or clips and Wan 2.7 keeps your subject consistent from prompt to finished shot. Upload a starting frame, choose Wan AI 2.7 Reference-to-Video in the Image to Video tool, and animate it on VdoBloom — the credit price appears before every generation.
Most image-to-video tools treat your upload as frame one and improvise everything after it. Wan AI 2.7 Reference-to-Video works on a different contract: the images or video you supply act as a persistent reference for the subject — a face, a product, an art style — while the prompt controls what actually happens in the shot. That separation is what makes it useful for series work, where the same character has to survive across many separate generations.
The model belongs to Alibaba's Wan family, and 2.7 is the line's newest generation in VdoBloom's catalog. Clips come out at 5 or 10 seconds in 720p or 1080p, which covers most social and storyboard work without upscaling. Because references can be video as well as stills, you can also hand it existing footage as a guide rather than describing a look in text.
Generation runs directly on VdoBloom using credits, and the exact credit cost for your chosen duration and resolution is shown before you commit a run — worth knowing when you are batching a whole set of reference-locked shots.

Frequently asked questions
How is Reference-to-Video different from Wan's regular image-to-video?
In standard image-to-video, your picture becomes the literal first frame of the clip. Here the uploaded references guide the subject's identity and style while your text prompt drives the action, so the same character or product stays recognizable across many separate generations.
What durations and resolutions does Wan 2.7 Reference-to-Video output?
You can generate 5- or 10-second clips at either 720p or 1080p. The credit cost for the combination you pick is displayed before the run starts.
Can I use a video as the reference instead of images?
Yes. The model accepts reference images or reference video, so an existing clip can serve as the guide for subject and style when stills alone don't capture what you're after.
How strict is Wan 2.7 Reference-to-Video's content filter?
It carries VdoBloom's HOT label, which means more permissive, flexible filtering than typical mainstream video models. Standard platform rules still apply, but creative prompts that stricter models decline are less likely to be blocked here.
