As we preannounced at AWS re:Invent 2024, you can now use Luma AI Ray2 video model in Amazon Bedrock to generate high-quality video clips from text, creating captivating motion graphics from static concepts. AWS is the first and only cloud provider to offer fully managed models from Luma AI.

On January 16, 2025, Luma AI introduced Luma Ray2, the large–scale video generative model capable of creating realistic visuals with natural, coherent motion with strong understanding of text instructions. Luma Ray2 exhibits advanced capabilities as a result of being trained on Luma’s new multi-modal architecture. It scales to ten times compute of Ray1, enabling it to produce 5 second or 9 second video clips that show fast coherent motion, ultra-realistic details, and logical event sequences with 540p and 720p resolution.

With Luma Ray2 in Amazon Bedrock, you can add high-quality, realistic, production-ready videos generated from text in your generative AI application through a single API. Luma Ray2 video model understands the interactions between people, animals, and objects, and you can create consistent and physically accurate characters through state-of-the-art natural language instruction understanding and reasoning.

You can use Ray2 video generations for content creation, entertainment, advertising, and media use cases, streamlining the creative process, from concept to execution. You can generate smooth, cinematic, and lifelike camera movements that match the intended emotion of the scene. You can rapidly experiment with different camera angles and styles and deliver creative outputs for architecture, fashion, film, graphic design, and music.

Let’s take a look at the impressive video generations by Luma Ray2 that Luma has published.

Get started with Luma Ray2 model in Amazon Bedrock Before getting started, if you are new to using Luma models, go to the Amazon Bedrock console and choose Model access on the bottom left pane. To access the latest Luma AI models, request access for Luma Ray2 in Luma AI.

To test the Luma AI model in Amazon Bedrock, choose Image/Video under Playgrounds in the left menu pane. Choose Select model, then select Luma AI as the category and Ray as the model.

For video generation models, you should have an Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket to store all generated videos. This bucket will be created in your AWS account, and Amazon Bedrock will have read and write permissions for it. Choose Confirm to create a bucket and generate a video.

I will generate a 5-second video with 720P and 24 frames per second with 16:9 aspect ratio for my prompt.

Here is an example prompt and generated video. You can download it stored in the S3 bucket. a humpback whale swimming through space particles

Here are another featured examples to demonstrate Ray2 model.

Prompt 1: A miniature baby cat is walking and exploring on the surface of a fingertip

Prompt 2: A massive orb of water floating in a backlit forest

Prompt 3: A man plays saxophone by @ziguratt

Prompt 4: Macro closeup of a bee pollinating

To check out more examples and generated videos, visit the Luma Ray2 page.

By choosing View API request in the Bedrock console, you can also access the model using code examples in the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) and AWS SDKs. You can use luma.ray-v2:0 as the model ID.

Here is a sample of the AWS CLI command:

aws bedrock-runtime invoke-model --model-id luma.ray-v2:0 --region us-west-2 --body "{"modelInput":{"taskType":"TEXT_VIDEO","textToVideoParams":{"text":"a humpback whale swimming through space particles"},"videoGenerationConfig":{"seconds":6,"fps":24,"dimension":"1280x720"}},"outputDataConfig":{"s3OutputDataConfig":{"s3Uri":"s3://your-bucket-name"}}}" invoke-model-output.txt

You can use Converse API examples to generate videos using AWS SDKs to build your applications using various programming languages.

Now available Luma Ray2 video model is generally available today in Amazon Bedrock in the US West (Oregon) AWS Region. Check the full Region list for future updates. To learn more, check out the Luma AI in Amazon Bedrock product page and the Amazon Bedrock Pricing page.

Give Luma Ray2 a try in the Amazon Bedrock console today, and send feedback to AWS re:Post for Amazon Bedrock or through your usual AWS Support contacts.
