Kling 4.0 Launches: Creators Demo Omni Reference, Multi-Cam Prompts and 30-Second Generations

Kling 4.0, the new video generation model, has officially launched with early access for select creators, and the first hands-on tests showcase major leaps in character consistency, camera work, and generation length.

Confirmed

• Blogger techhalla used Kling 4.0 to recreate a "1990s-style" live-action clip from Cadillacs & Dinosaurs, sharing full prompt screenshots and model evaluations across a thread of posts.
• Omni Reference: techhalla demonstrated injecting 6 reference images at once—lab setting, four main characters, and a punk gang—into a single generation (8 seconds, 1080p, native audio), with all characters keeping a consistent look across 5 shot changes, and close-up details like sweat beads and stubble holding up. Creator HeyZoyaKhan also tested using character reference images to guide generation and maintain consistency.
• Camera work: techhalla generated three camera angles from a single prompt—a handheld side-tracking shot, a medium close-up inside a car, and a wide shot moving through debris—with cuts placed "exactly where a director would cut."
• Dynamic Motions: a 7-second action sequence with 5 hard cuts (protagonist ambushed, breaking free, fleeing into the jungle) ran at real-time speed with no slow motion, preserving body weight and impact throughout with no mid-way "melting."
• Long-form generation: HeyZoyaKhan tested a single 30-second 1080p long-take sequence with no multi-clip stitching required, with a link to the finished output.

Why it matters

• Injecting multiple reference images at once while keeping characters consistent across shots tackles AI video's long-standing character-degradation problem, making multi-shot storytelling feasible.
• Stable performance on multi-angle shots from a single prompt and hard-cut action sequences suggests the model is starting to grasp "director-level" cinematic language rather than just producing a single continuous shot.
• Native 30-second generation greatly reduces stitching costs, and the prompt-transparent review approach gives creators a reproducible workflow reference.
