# HappyHorse 1.0 I2V

> Alibaba DashScope HappyHorse 1.0 image-to-video model. Generate videos from a single first-frame image via an asynchronous task interface.

HappyHorse 1.0 I2V animates a single first-frame image into a short video. Uses an **asynchronous task interface** — submit a task and poll until completion.

## Key Capabilities

* **Image-to-video** — Use one image as the first frame, with text description driving motion
* **Resolution** — 720P / 1080P
* **Aspect ratio** — 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4
* **Duration** — 3–15 seconds
* **Watermark control** — Optionally disable the bottom-right watermark

## Workflow

```
1. POST /v1/video/generations  →  task_id
2. GET  /v1/video/generations/{task_id}  →  Poll until SUCCESS / FAILURE
3. Read data.result_url  (valid for 24 hours)
```

## Quick Example

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash cURL theme={null}
  curl https://ai.cubeuaeai.com/v1/video/generations \
    -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' \
    -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    -d '{
      "model": "happyhorse-1.0-i2v",
      "prompt": "Camera slowly zooms in, the scene comes to life",
      "image": "https://example.com/first-frame.png",
      "parameters": {
        "resolution": "720P",
        "duration": 5,
        "watermark": false
      }
    }'
  ```

  ```python Python theme={null}
  import requests, time

  headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"}

  resp = requests.post(
      "https://ai.cubeuaeai.com/v1/video/generations",
      headers=headers,
      json={
          "model": "happyhorse-1.0-i2v",
          "prompt": "Camera slowly zooms in, the scene comes to life",
          "image": "https://example.com/first-frame.png",
          "parameters": {"resolution": "720P", "duration": 5, "watermark": False}
      }
  )
  task_id = resp.json()["task_id"]

  while True:
      r = requests.get(
          f"https://ai.cubeuaeai.com/v1/video/generations/{task_id}",
          headers=headers,
      ).json()
      if r["data"]["status"] == "SUCCESS":
          print(r["data"]["result_url"])
          break
      if r["data"]["status"] == "FAILURE":
          print(r["data"]["fail_reason"])
          break
      time.sleep(15)
  ```

> The `image` field accepts a single URL. You can also use the `images: [...]` array form (only the first image is used as the first frame).
