Start from the exact pixels you care about, then add controlled motion. Use a quiet camera push, a tactile product action, or a complete cinematic reveal.

01Direct the motion
One line of direction — a slow push-in while caramel runs over the edge — and MiniMax H3 animated this still without changing the cheesecake itself. Describe the action, pace and camera move in plain words; keep it subtle or go cinematic.

02Product content
From one vertical still, Kling 3.0 Pro put this yacht into a banking turn, its wake curling behind. Turn a clean product frame into a demonstration for ads, launch stories and social posts.
Choose the format16:9
03Choose the format
The yacht above is vertical for feeds; this earring close-up stays 16:9 for a brand film, a site header or a lookbook. Kling 3.0 Pro, MiniMax H3 and Grok Imagine keep the shape of the image you upload, while Gemini Omni Flash and Veo 3.1 let you choose 9:16 or 16:9.

The clip is saved to Lab with its sound. In Video Editor, trim it, reframe it to 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9, add an on-screen line or upscale it with Topaz.
Questions before you create
Use a JPG, PNG, or WebP product shot, illustration, portrait, character, interior, landscape, or other scene. A visible face is not required.
Image to video adds camera and scene motion to a still, and the models here also generate sound. It does not lip-sync a face to your own script or voice track: for that, use Make a Photo Talk.
This page preselects Gemini Omni Flash and offers Seedance 2.0, Kling 3.0 Pro, Veo 3.1 and Grok Imagine. The image-to-video list in Video Studio also includes models such as Seedance 2.5 and MiniMax H3; the Studio card shows what is available for a new generation.
Describe the subject action, camera movement, pace, and details that must stay unchanged. A short, specific direction usually works better than a long story.
Yes. Video Studio shows the selected duration and a credit estimate before you launch the generation.
Only when you have the required rights to the source image, brands, artwork, and recognizable likenesses, and the selected model or provider terms allow your intended commercial use. Check those terms before publishing.
Ready when you are
Describe the motion and pick a model here — no account needed yet. Create one when you continue: your image uploads to Lab and opens in Video Studio, and you see the credit estimate before anything renders.
