Start with the picture you already have. Upload it as the first frame, say how it should move, and the maker renders a short clip that keeps your subject, colours and framing while adding camera motion and life.
Raw render, no post-production. Click the clip for sound.
The exact sequence to get from blank prompt box to a downloaded MP4.
Switch the mode to photo and add your image. The output will open on exactly this frame.
Give the maker a second image and it will move from one to the other — handy for reveals and before/after shots.
Describe what should change: "camera circles slowly", "mist drifts across the water", "she turns to the lens and smiles".
Pick a length and quality, make the clip, then download the MP4 from your creations list.
When you already have the exact product, person or place you need on screen, a photo is a far more reliable starting point than words. The maker locks the opening frame to your image, so the thing in the video is unmistakably your thing — same packaging, same face, same room.
That matters for brand work. A text prompt can get you something that looks like your product; a photo gets you your product.
Sharp, well-lit images with a clear subject and some depth do best. Product shots on a clean background, portraits with soft light, and landscapes with layers (foreground, middle, sky) all give the maker room to move the camera convincingly.
Very busy collages, heavy text overlays and tiny subjects tend to animate poorly. If you have a choice, upload the cleanest version of the image at the largest size you have.
Describe one or two movements, not ten. "Slow orbit to the right, light glinting on the metal" is enough for a product. "Gentle breeze in the hair, subtle smile, camera holds still" is enough for a portrait. For scenes, name what in the environment should move: water, clouds, steam, leaves, passing traffic.
If you want the camera to stay put and only the subject to move, say so. If you want a dramatic push-in or pull-out, name the speed. The maker follows plain instructions well.
Uploading a second image as the last frame tells the maker where to end. Use it for a packaging reveal (closed box to open box), a colour-change, a room before and after staging, or a product rotating a quarter turn between two photographed angles.
Keep both images at the same aspect ratio and similar framing for the smoothest result.
Hover a clip for the shot note it was rendered from. Click for sound.
The first frame is your photo, pixel for pixel. Everything after it grows from there.
Colours, framing and the look of the shot carry through the whole clip.
Orbits, push-ins, drifting detail and real parallax instead of a flat zoom.
Sign in, spend your two starter credits on a draft, and have a finished clip downloaded before your coffee cools.
