If Sora 2 is the cinematographer, Kling 3.0 is the choreographer. Sora 2 produces beautifully composed, lit, and acted scenes. Kling 3.0 produces scenes where motion holds together — multiple subjects moving at different speeds, long takes that pan and track, fight choreography that doesn't fall apart mid-shot. For a still-feeling shot, pick Sora 2. For anything where motion is the point, pick Kling.
