PixVerse Introduces C1, an AI Video Model Built for Film Production
PixVerse announces C1, its first AI video model for film production: action and effects, storyboard-to-video, reference-guided consistency, up to 1080p and 15 seconds with audio.
Designed to solve consistency, physical realism, and scene orchestration, C1 brings AI video closer to production-ready workflows.
SINGAPORE, 7 April 2026 — PixVerse today announced C1, its first AI video model purpose-built for film production. C1 combines an industrial-grade action engine, a cinematic visual effects system, and intelligent multi-panel storyboarding into a single model, enabling more coherent and controllable video generation across complex, multi-shot sequences.
Production-Ready Action and Effects
C1 is designed to handle the types of sequences that have historically exposed the limits of AI video. Close-combat choreography, high-velocity motion, and object interactions are rendered with consistent spatial relationships and physical weight, reducing the need for manual correction across frames.
The model also supports visually demanding effects such as particle and lighting effects, fluid dynamics, and atmospheric environments, allowing both realistic and stylised scenes to be generated within a unified workflow.
Storyboard to Video
C1 introduces a storyboard-to-video capability, enabling production teams to convert static storyboard layouts directly into continuous video sequences. Scene segmentation is handled automatically based on prompt structure, across all major generation modes including text-to-video, image-to-video, and reference-guided workflows.
Users can upload static storyboards and the C1 model can turn this into a continuous video sequence.
Reference-guided generation further enables character and scene consistency across shots, one of the most persistent challenges in AI-assisted production.
Built for Production Workflows
C1 generates video at up to 1080p and 15 seconds, with native audio-visual output. Reference image guidance helps maintain continuity across scene transitions, making it more viable for multi-shot storytelling and iterative production pipelines.
PixVerse C1 is available now via PixVerse Web and API for enterprise integration.
