How to animate an image
in three steps.

Use the AI image animator to animate image details with a clear motion prompt. Review the settings and cost before confirming.

  1. 01

    Choose your image

    Add one photo or illustration you have permission to use. Your source preview helps you check the composition before submitting.

  2. 02

    Describe what moves

    Choose a suggestion or write a short prompt. Name the subject, its movement and what the camera should do.

  3. 03

    Review, then create

    Check the available output settings and credit cost before confirmation. Watch the resulting clip before downloading your MP4.

Know what you are
about to create.

Choosing a file is only the starting point. Review the details before you commit to a generation.

Understand credits

Review the cost first

AI generation uses credits. Check the job cost and selected outputs before confirmation. Any promotional credits are shown only when available to your account.

Choose when to submit

File selection prepares a local preview. Read the upload and retention information, then confirm when you are ready to send the image for generation.

Keep the result you want

Review the full video and download the existing result without starting another job. A changed prompt requires a new quote and confirmation.

A few questions,
answered.

The essentials on source images, motion prompts, downloads and credits.

How does the AI image animator work?

It creates new video frames from one starting image and your motion instructions. Describe what should move, its direction and pace, and whether the camera should stay still. Generated frames may reinterpret source details.

Can I animate image files in JPG, PNG or WebP?

Yes. Upload one JPG, PNG or static WebP image up to 10 MiB. Use an image you own or have permission to use. Choose a clear subject with readable detail and some space around it.

Can I animate an image for free?

Our AI image animator uses credits. Any promotional credits available to your account and the exact cost are shown before you confirm a job.

Can I animate image backgrounds?

You can ask for clouds to drift, water to ripple or fabric to move while the camera stays still. These instructions guide generation; they do not guarantee an unchanged subject or background.

Will faces, text and product details stay the same?

Not always. AI can change faces, lettering, shapes and edges across the clip. Check the complete result before using it. For precise movement of unchanged artwork, apply pan, zoom or rotation in a conventional photo or video editor.

What can I download?

AI animation produces an MP4 video. Available duration and resolution are shown with the selected output settings.

When is my image submitted?

Choosing a file prepares a local source preview. Remote generation requires explicit confirmation. Review the upload notice, selected settings, retention information and cost before submitting. An account is required for AI generation.

Does another attempt cost credits?

A new generation requires a new quote and confirmation. Review the cost before trying a different prompt. Downloading an existing result does not create another generation job.
