Animate a Photo
Bring a still photo to life as a moving shot.
Upload a photograph, describe how it should move, and the Video Studio animates it while holding your framing. Because your image is the first frame, the subject stays the subject instead of being reinvented.
How to use Animate a Photo
- 1Upload the photo you want to animate.
- 2Describe the movement — a slow push in, hair in the wind, a turn of the head.
- 3Generate, then adjust the motion prompt until it feels natural.
