Step 1: Pick a good photo

Choose a photo with one clear subject and some empty space around it.

Step 2: Upload it

Upload the photo to an image-to-video tool.

Step 3: Describe the camera

Don't just write "animate this". Write a camera move, like "slow zoom in" or "move around left".

Step 4: Add one small movement

Add one natural movement, like hair in the wind or steam rising.

Good to know

  • If the video looks strange, make the movement smaller.
  • Don't describe the photo again. The tool can already see it.
