Image to Video AI Generator
Image-to-video keeps everything you like about a picture and adds time. Upload a photo, illustration or render, describe the motion, and generate a clip whose first frame is your image. Add a second image to define where the clip ends. The composer below requires an image; the rest of the page covers motion prompts, subject preservation and the problems that trip people up.

How it works
- 01
Upload the image
JPEG, PNG or WebP. Faces, products, scenery and illustrations all work. Anything above 720px on the short side is fine.
- 02
Describe the motion
'Slow push-in, hair moving in the wind, clouds drifting.' Leave it blank for natural ambient motion.
- 03
Optional: set the last frame
Upload a second image and the model animates the transition between the two, which is how precise product turns and reveals are made.
- 04
Generate
The output aspect ratio follows your image unless you change it. The clip appears in your library when done.
What image-to-video is good at
Subject preservation
Image-to-video models keep framing, identity and colours intact far better than text prompts can.
Camera moves
Push, pull, orbit, pan and tilt are all promptable. Keep to one move per clip.
First and last frame
Two images define the start and end; the model fills the motion in between.
Loops
Ask for a seamless loop for backgrounds, live wallpapers and grid posts.
Audio
Add ambience or dialogue with an audio-capable preset, or attach a track to sync to.
Upscale-ready
Choose 1080p or higher when the routed model supports it.
Motion prompts to try
Attach an image first, then click a prompt.
Common problems and fixes
- Face changes mid-clip: use a clearer, larger portrait and a shorter duration; avoid asking for head turns beyond 45 degrees.
- Motion is too strong: describe a smaller move ('subtle', 'slow') or set a last frame close to the first.
- Output is cropped: the composer follows the image ratio; switch to 9:16 or 16:9 only if your image supports it.
- Text in the image warps: models struggle with lettering; keep text out of the moving area or add it later.
How model routing works
You never have to read a model comparison to make a clip. Each request is scored against every enabled model in our registry using the capability it needs (text-to-video, image-to-video, first-and-last frame, reference video, character reference), the preset you picked, the aspect ratio and duration, and the model's live health. The best match is submitted; the next best are kept as fallbacks.
Costs are computed the same way. The quote you see before generating is the price for the model that will actually run, including any resolution or audio surcharge, and it is reserved rather than charged until the clip completes.
Image-to-video models in the registry
Live from our model registry. Availability and specs update as models change.

Private by default, publishable in one tap
Private library
Every creation is stored privately with its prompt, settings and model, so you can rerun, tweak or download it later.
Visibility controls
Publish as public, followers-only, unlisted or private, and decide whether others may remix.
Downloads
Full-resolution files, permanently hosted on our storage, downloadable from the library at any time.
Remix lineage
If you do publish, remixes credit you and appear under your original.
Frequently asked
- Will the face stay the same?
- Image-to-video preserves identity best when the subject is well lit, clearly visible and not too small in frame. Short clips with subtle motion keep faces most stable. For repeated use across many videos, save the person as a character instead.
- Can I animate multiple images into one video?
- Use first-and-last-frame mode for a two-image transition. For longer sequences, generate each segment and cut them together, or use the Story preset with a text description of the beats.
- What image sizes work best?
- Anything above 720 pixels on the short edge. Larger is fine; the file limit depends on your plan and is shown in the uploader.
- What happens if a generation fails?
- The reserved credits are released back to your wallet immediately. If the failure was on the provider side and a fallback model can serve the same request, the router retries automatically and you are still charged once.
- Do I have to pick an AI model?
- No. Choose a style preset such as Fast, Cinematic or Story and the router selects the best available model for that intent, aspect ratio, duration and the inputs you attached. If a model is degraded, the router falls back to a comparable one without charging you twice. Advanced users can still pin a specific model.
- How much does a generation cost?
- Every generation is quoted in credits before you confirm, based on the routed model, duration and resolution. Credits are reserved when you start and released automatically if the generation fails, so you only pay for what completes. Plans start at $4.99 a week and include a credit allowance; subscribers can top up with credit packs.
- Are my generations private?
- Yes by default. Everything you generate lands in your private library. You decide per creation whether to publish it to the feed, share it unlisted, restrict it to followers or keep it private, and whether others may remix it.
- Can I download the videos?
- Yes. Every completed generation can be downloaded in full resolution from your library. Files are stored permanently on our own media storage, not on the provider's temporary links.
