Choose its next moment.
Watch the samples and choose an effect. Each preset has its own photo requirements and creates a short scene with a fixed creative direction. Use a photo you have permission to use and check the selected effect before uploading.
These photo to video results are creative interpretations, so facial details and motion can vary. The samples show AI generated adults or pets, depending on the effect. Review your own result before sharing it, and read our likeness refund promise.

before you create.
Which photo to video effect should I choose?
Choose Old photo to video for gentle portrait motion, AI hug for a friendly embrace, See yourself older for an imagined aging time lapse, Earth zoom out for a journey into space, Make your photo dance for an energetic full body scene, Muscle transformation for exaggerated biceps, or Pet comes alive for a playful animal portrait.
What photos can I upload?
AI hug needs exactly two consenting adults in the same photo, ideally side by side and framed from the waist up. Pet comes alive needs one clear photo of one dog or cat, with no people. The remaining effects need one clear photo of one consenting adult. Use only photos and likenesses you have the right to animate.
Can I make a photo to video effect for free?
New visitors receive 10 welcome credits, enough for one video without signing in. Each of these effects uses 10 credits. The welcome allowance is shared across the site, not renewed for every effect.
Are the examples real people or AI generated samples?
Every sample shows AI generated output featuring fictional adults or, for Pet comes alive, a generated golden retriever. These effects are creative interpretations. Aging is not a prediction, the muscle effect is deliberately exaggerated, and dance or Earth zoom out can invent body areas and scenery absent from the source photo. Exact likeness is not guaranteed.
What video format will I receive?
These effects request six seconds at 720p in vertical 9:16, downloadable as MP4 with original instrumental music and no speech. Final duration, appearance, audio and movement can vary. Review the result before sharing.
