Everything About Higgsfield Genjutsu

Genjutsu is Higgsfield’s video editing model, launched on August 31, 2026. It rebuilds part of an existing video, such as a person, a setting, an object, or the whole style, while keeping the original motion, timing, and camera work. It handles both real footage and AI-generated video.

Film once. Change the world around the motion as often as you like.

Motion Transfer

Carries the movement from your video onto a new character or a rebuilt scene

Object Swap

Replaces one named element, such as a product, outfit, or prop, and leaves the rest alone

Restyle

Added on September 30, 2026. Redraws the entire video in an animation style

Restyle sits inside Motion Transfer as a styles option. Our Genjutsu Restyle guide covers it in detail.

Source video

A single clip, 4 to 30 seconds long

Reference images

Up to 30 per generation in the web app, covering characters, objects, outfits, products, locations, or styles

Prompt

Optional. A preset or a short description is enough

Output

480p, 720p, or 1080p

Genjutsu offers more than 30 presets. A preset on its own can drive the change, and a short description adds specific direction.

Higgsfield listed these costs for a 15-second clip, as verified in September 2026. Both modes cost the same:

480p

40 credits, roughly $2.00

720p

104 credits, roughly $5.20

1080p

144 credits, roughly $7.20

On the Higgsfield API, Genjutsu was listed from $0.159 per second at a 50% discount in mid-October 2026. Prices change, so check them before you generate.
