Vidu AI Character Consistency — Shengshu's Video Model and the Reference Layer It Depends On
Vidu AI, developed by Shengshu Technology, is one of the major Chinese AI video models competing in the rapidly consolidating image-to-video market alongside Kling (Kuaishou), Seedance/Jimeng (ByteDance), and Hailuo (MiniMax). Vidu differentiates on high-resolution output and what early testers describe as particularly strong facial coherence in character-driven clips. Like every competitor in the space, Vidu's image-to-video pipeline depends on reference image quality to anchor character identity. The workflow is consistent across all these tools: generate a locked multi-angle character reference in EZ Character, feed the strongest angle to Vidu as the reference frame, and repeat with different angles for clip variety.
Vidu AI vs EZ Character at a glance
| Criterion | EZ Character | Vidu AI |
|---|---|---|
| Primary use case | Static multi-angle character reference sheets | Image-to-video generation with high-resolution output (Shengshu Technology) |
| Output type | Multi-angle PNG/JPG reference sheets | Video clips with strong facial coherence, Chinese AI video ecosystem |
| Pricing (entry) | €0 free tier (12 free credits, ~80 images) | Free trial credits; paid tiers competitive with Kling and Seedance |
| Differentiator | Multi-angle character lock in one pass | High-resolution output and strong facial feature preservation |
| Character identity lock | High — 8 consistent angles per job | Depends on reference image; strong within individual clips |
| Multi-angle static output | Yes — 8 angles native | No — video-only |
| Best for | Building locked character references that maximise Vidu's facial coherence strength | Character video where facial detail and high resolution are the priority |
When to use each
EZ Character
You need a locked multi-angle character reference before entering any AI video pipeline — Vidu included. The reference quality is the single biggest lever on output.
Vidu AI
You want to test Vidu's specific strengths (high resolution, facial coherence) against Kling, Seedance, and Hailuo for your specific character type and use case.
