Give Kling 3 the plain label as the first frame and your finished label as the last frame, and ask for 6 seconds. On Sume that job is $0.84 silent or $1.26 with sound, at either 720p or 1080p. Because the last frame is fixed, the clip lands exactly on your approved artwork, which is the property a printed label needs.

How the request looks

Sume's /v1/videos takes frame_images with frame_type set to first_frame or last_frame. Kling 3 lists both on Sume, with 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1 aspect ratios and 4 to 15 seconds. Use 1:1 for a can or bottle label shot square, or 9:16 for a story.

body = {
    "model": "kling-3",

    "duration": 6,

Making the end frame work

Small choices decide whether the animation looks intended.

  • Make both frames the same size and aspect ratio as the request, 1:1 in the example.
  • Keep the background identical in both frames so the motion happens in the artwork, not the room.
  • Draft a 4-second silent version first at $0.56.
  • Add the clink and pour sounds in your editor; at $1.26 versus $0.84, the audio option is a convenience, not a requirement.

Limits

Kling 3 on Sume has no reference-image input, so it will not keep a logo consistent beyond the two frames you give it. Long text on the label may blur in motion; test with your real artwork.
