How to Animate Your Image

  1. 1

    Upload your image

    Start by uploading the static photo you want to bring to life. Clear, high-quality images work best.

  2. 2

    Describe the animation

    In the text box, tell the AI how you want your image to move. Be specific, for example: 'make his jacket ripple in the wind'.

  3. 3

    Generate your video

    With one click, our AI will get to work, interpreting your prompt and applying the described motion to your image.

  4. 4

    Download your video

    Your new animation is ready to download as a high-resolution, watermark-free MP4 video. Share it with the world!

Give your static photos a dynamic new dimension. Our AI tool breathes life into any picture, letting you transform a single frame into a captivating video. Simply upload an image and describe the movement. You can animate the subtle sway of trees in a forest, the steam rising from a coffee cup, or add a sense of action to a dramatic leap. Turn a frozen moment into a living scene, adding depth and motion that grabs attention and tells a more complete story.

Create Motion from a Single Image

You are the director. Our image to video tool gives you creative control through simple text commands. Instead of being limited by preset effects, you can specify exactly how you want your image to move. Describe the direction, speed, and style of the animation. Prompt the AI to 'make the waterfall cascade down the rocks' or 'create a gentle breeze that makes her hair flow to the left'. This text-based approach provides the flexibility to generate unique animations tailored to your specific vision.
