LTX-2.3 Pro Text to Video: 4K Clips From a Prompt

Last verified: October 19, 2026

LTX-2.3 Pro turns a written prompt into a video clip of up to 4K. Its soundtrack is generated together with the picture, not added afterwards. You direct the action, the camera and the sound in one text box, and you get back a shot framed vertical or widescreen, depending on how you set it up.

Pro is the higher-fidelity variant of LTX-2.3, and LTX-2.3 closely follows descriptions of timing, motion and expression. So it rewards prompts written like a shot description (who does what, where the camera sits, what the light and sound are doing) over a string of adjectives, because concrete direction is what carries through into the clip.

The settings around the prompt cover delivery: clip length, resolution, vertical or widescreen framing, frame rate, and whether the model generates sound at all. Enhance Prompt sits under the text box and turns a rough idea into a fuller scene. A good way to work is to settle the wording on lower-resolution drafts and save the 4K render for the version you'll publish.

Prompting Techniques for Better LTX-2.3 Pro Clips

Start the Prompt With the Action, Then Layer Detail

Lightricks' recommended order for LTX-2.3 is the main action first, then precise movement and gestures, then the character and environment, and finally explicit camera and lighting, all in under 200 words. Write it as one flowing paragraph in present tense instead of a list of fragments. Draft in that order in the Prompt box. If you take a suggestion from Enhance Prompt, check that it still opens on the action before you keep it.

Place Subjects and the Camera Explicitly

LTX-2.3 respects spatial layout and relationships when you name them: left versus right, foreground versus background, facing toward or away, and the distance between subjects. Pair that with camera language the model understands (tracking shot, low angle, shallow depth of field, macro lens), and describe each camera move relative to the subject. Choose the Aspect Ratio before you write the blocking. Two people side by side read naturally in widescreen, while a foreground-to-background arrangement suits a vertical frame.

Use One Craft's Vocabulary to Set the Style

LTX-2.3 responds to domain shorthand more precisely than to generic description. That includes VFX terms such as rack focus or matte painting, animation terms such as contact poses and ease-in/ease-out, and film-restoration terms such as gate weave or Kodachrome. Lightricks lists mixing domain vocabularies among the common mistakes, so pick the one craft that matches your look and use its terms throughout the prompt.

How to Make a Video With LTX-2.3 Pro

Four steps from a written prompt to a downloaded clip.

LTX-2.3 Pro or LTX-2.3 Fast for Your Clip

How Pro compares with LTX-2.3 Fast, the other tier Lightricks offers for writing a clip from a prompt.

Longest single take Pro's single-generation ceiling matches the longest Video Duration option, and that ceiling is the same at every resolution Lightricks lists for Pro. LTX-2.3 Fast, offered through Lightricks' own API, stretches one generation to 20 seconds at 1080p and holds to 10 seconds at 1440p and 4K. Choose Fast when you need one unbroken take longer than ten seconds and 1080p is enough; stay with Pro when the shot fits within its length.
Stage of production Lightricks positions Pro for final, commercial-grade renders with higher detail and motion stability. Lightricks positions LTX-2.3 Fast for rapid iteration, storyboards and previews. Use Fast to storyboard many variations and Pro for the take that goes into the final edit, which follows the creator's own advice to start on Fast and ship on Pro.
Choose LTX-2.3 Pro for a finished shot that fits within its clip length and needs final-render detail. LTX-2.3 Fast is the option for quick storyboard passes or a single take longer than Pro's ceiling at 1080p.

Common LTX-2.3 Pro Problems and How to Fix Them

Problems that show up in generated clips, and what to change before the next run.

My video looks like a still photo and almost nothing moves.

If a prompt reads like a description of a still image, the output tends to behave like one. Rewrite it around verbs: say who moves, what moves, how they move and what the camera does, for example a coat flapping in the wind, a hand adjusting a collar, a camera tracking right. Keep your other settings the same and run it again, so you can see the effect of the new wording.

My longer clips rush through the action and then drift.

A short prompt on a long clip doesn't give LTX-2.3 enough direction to fill the time, and the model often rushes through the action you described. Either add beats (Lightricks suggests about one main action per 2–3 seconds of video) or lower Video Duration to match the action you have. Run it again after either change.

Fast action like flips or juggling comes out warped or glitchy.

Complex physics is a known weak spot: highly chaotic motion can introduce artifacts, while everyday motion such as dancing holds up well. Cut the action down to one plausible movement, describe it at an unhurried pace, and let a camera move carry the energy instead. Run it again with the simpler prompt.

In busy scenes, characters merge, swap looks or get lost.

Too many characters or simultaneous actions reduce clarity. Cut the cast to the subjects the shot actually needs, give each one a clearly different description, and stage their actions one after another rather than all at once. Lighting from conflicting sources confuses the scene in the same way, so give the shot one clear light setup. Regenerate with the shorter prompt.

The audio has sounds I didn't ask for, or doesn't fit the scene.

LTX-2.3 reads the same prompt for picture and sound. Specific description gets priority and vague wording gets diluted, so a prompt with little audio direction leaves the soundtrack loosely defined. Write the sound into the scene: the environmental audio, its tone and intensity, and any dialogue you need to be clear. If you'll add your own music or voiceover, switch Generate Audio off before you run it again.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long can an LTX-2.3 Pro video be?

Lightricks caps Pro at ten seconds per generation at every resolution it supports, and that's also the longest Video Duration option here. For a longer piece, plan it as a sequence of shots and give each prompt enough action to fill its own clip.

Can LTX-2.3 Pro make characters speak?

Yes. Lightricks presents LTX-2.3 as having built-in native dialogue, and its prompt guide explains how to direct a line. Break the speech into short phrases, put an acting direction between each one, and describe physical cues (a pause, a glance to the side, a voice that cracks) instead of labels like sad or nervous. Keep Generate Audio on so the voice is created with the clip.

Why does one generation cost more than another?

The credit cost is calculated from the options you pick and shown above the Generate button once you're signed in. It changes with Video Duration and Resolution, so check the figure after adjusting either one. Enhance Prompt does not use credits.

Is 4K worth it, or is 1080P enough?

Render the final take at 4K when the clip will play on large screens or be cropped in the edit, since the extra resolution gives you room to reframe. For drafts, 1080P is a fair preview: LTX-2.3's rebuilt VAE produces sharper detail at every resolution, and Lightricks notes that if you've been sharpening or upscaling in post to compensate, you should need less of that.

Which FPS setting should I use?

The higher frame rates exist for smoother motion. Pick the higher FPS option for fast camera moves or footage you plan to slow down later, because the extra frames let you play it at half speed on a timeline running at the default rate. For dialogue, slow drama and most social clips, the default gives a conventional look and is the simpler place to start.
