  3. 3

    Generate your video

    Click the generate button and let our AI work its magic. It will process your image and prompt to create a unique vertical video.

    Download and share

    Your vertical video is ready to download. Save your watermark-free, high-resolution video and post it directly to TikTok, Reels, or Shorts.

Transform your static photos into dynamic, eye-catching videos. Simply upload an image and describe the motion you want to see. Whether it's adding steam to a coffee cup, making hair blow in the wind, or creating subtle movement in a landscape, our AI animates your pictures with stunning realism. This is perfect for grabbing attention on crowded social media feeds where motion is key. Turn your product shots, portraits, or artwork into short, loopable videos that get more engagement and shares.
