Season 6 is live
New video tools. New ways to move the camera. Let's go.

|

Hey Sognians!
January was a monster month. We shipped so much that we're still catching our breath. Season 6 kicked off with a 10 million SOGNI prize pool, the Supernet got a serious upgrade with Etherlink as the default layer, and we dropped a whole suite of video and image tools that change how you create.
Let's break it down.

Your New Video Superpowers 🎬
|
|
Sogni Studio is upgraded with new ways to bring your images to life.
Motion Transfer: Animate-Move & Animate-Replace
Use any video to drive motion in your creations. Two modes:
Animate-Move: Apply motion from a source video to your character. Your character keeps its look while inheriting the movement.
Animate-Replace: Keep the original video's motion and scene, swap out the subject for your character.
The wild part? You can record directly from your Mac's webcam. Capture your own movements and transfer them to any AI character in seconds.

Sound to Video
Drop an audio track. Watch your image dance to it.
Sound to Video analyzes your audio's rhythm and dynamics, then generates motion that matches. Works beautifully for music-driven visuals, ambient scenes, and lip-sync.
Pro tip: Use the mic button to record live audio directly in the app.

Change Perspective
Re-render your image from any camera angle while keeping the subject and style consistent.
Choose your distance (closer or wider), orientation (front, left, right, back, diagonals), and elevation (low to high). Same subject, new viewpoint.
Available in Sogni Studio Pro and now in Sogni Pocket too.

Multi-Angle Magic in Photobooth 📸
|
|
Mark's been cooking. The new 3D Camera Angle feature in Photobooth gives you 96 different perspectives from a single image -- adjusting distance, height, and rotation.
But here's where it gets good: uncheck the single-image box to unlock multi-angle presets and video workflows.
The workflow:
| 1. Generate your image with angle controls |
| 2. Pick a multi-angle preset or build your own |
| 3. Regenerate each angle until it's perfect |
| 4. Save as a Local Project for reuse |
| 5. Run Batch Transition to stitch into video |
| 6. Get a seamlessly looping orbit video |
|

Sogni 360: Orbit Videos from a Single Shot 🔄
|
|
Sogni 360 takes a single image and generates an orbit video. No tripod. No gimbal. No asking a stranger to walk around you while filming.
Upload a photo or take a selfie and the AI handles the camera movement. You get a smooth, looping video that shows you (or your subject) from every angle.
Works for travel shots, product showcases, or any moment that deserves more than one perspective.
Mark shipped a new mini-app. Stand still, get a video that moves around you.

| • Qwen Image 2512 -- Faster, sharper generations. |
| • Qwen Image Edit -- Precision editing using natural language. |
| • Z-Image Turbo -- Near-instant generation for rapid brainstorming. |
| • LTX-2 Video -- Blazing fast video up to 4K with audio. |

Stop fighting the tool. The new Enhancer filters let you refine your vision instantly:
Realism: Cinematic, Flash, or Smartphone camera styles.
Focus & Tone: Motion blur, film grain, cinematic color grading.
