Convert Image to Video

Learn how to transform your character images into dynamic AI-generated videos. This guide covers the complete process from image selection to video generation.

The Convert to Video feature lets you animate a still image into a short video clip using AI. You can add prompts to control the motion, camera style, and mood.

Click Source Image and upload or select your character image

Best Results:

Make sure the image is high quality and front-facing
Clear, well-lit, and centered subjects work best
Avoid blurry or low-resolution images

2Add an Animation Prompt (Optional)

Enter a description of the movement you want. You can be specific about gestures, facial expressions, and actions.

Add your animation prompt to control the motion

Example Prompts:

"My model is extending her left arm holding the camera, then with her right hand she waves and smiles."

"The model turns her head slightly and gives a gentle smile to the camera."

"My model waves goodbye and then blows a kiss."

You can leave this blank if you want the system to auto-animate based on the image.

Pro Tips for Better Results

Testing Strategy:

Start with Lite Mode (5s) to test your animation prompt cheaply, then scale up to Pro 1080p for final polished videos.

Prompt Writing:

Be specific about actions and include "my model" or "the model" in your prompts for better character recognition.

Remember:

You can close the generation window and continue working on other projects. Your video will continue processing in the background.
