Image to Video Generator
Upload a still image and the image to video generator adds motion — drift, parallax, character action — to turn the frame into a short clip. No install, no GPU.
What Image-to-Video Animates
Four patterns where image-to-video adds real value over a static frame.
Parallax & Depth
Adds depth-of-field motion to landscape and architectural stills — foreground drifts faster than background, giving 3D feel from 2D source.
Bring Stills to Life
Start from one frame and add motion — a few ways the image to video generator animates a still.
Subtle, lifelike movement
Living Portraits
Add gentle motion to a portrait — breathing, blinking, hair and light shifts — without losing the likeness.
Depth from a flat photo
Parallax Landscapes
Turn a landscape into a slow parallax move, separating foreground and background for a 3D feel.
Motion for commerce
Product Spins
Animate a product still into a clean rotation or push-in for listings and ads.
One element in motion
Cinemagraph Loops
Keep the frame still and animate a single element — water, steam, neon — for a seamless loop.
A Workflow for Better Image-to-Video Output
The right source image and the right motion prompt do most of the work.
1. Pick a Source With Implied Motion
Composition with direction
Sources with directional cues — wind, light angle, posture — animate cleaner than perfectly static studio shots.
2. Add a Motion Prompt
Subject, camera, environment
Tell the model what should move: "slow camera push in", "leaves drifting left", "subject blinks". Implicit motion is unreliable.
3. Choose Duration
2-4 seconds
Short clips loop cleaner and produce fewer artifacts. Sub-4 seconds is the sweet spot.
4. Re-Generate If Drift Is Wrong
Tighten the motion tokens
If the motion direction is off, narrow the motion prompt and rerun. Each pass is fast credit-wise compared to manual rotoscoping.
