# Happy Horse Text to Video

> Create short scenes from text with Happy Horse, with output up to 1080p for landscape, portrait, and square video.

<Tip>
  1. Submit the request with `VIDGO_API_KEY`. A `task_id` is returned immediately. Keep it until the task reaches `finished` or `failed`.
  2. Use [Query Task Status](/api-manual/task-management/status) to retrieve the result. If you provide a `callback_url`, Vidgo sends the result to your [webhook](/api-manual/task-management/webhooks) when the task finishes or fails.
