Start with the photo you already use, then add one camera or scene movement. A restrained push, pour, opening or light shift gives the clip motion while leaving the item easy to recognize.

FAQ

Questions about Image to Video

What kind of photo works for image to video?

A sharp, well-lit photo with the product fully in frame. Leave some background around it, because tight crops give the camera nowhere to go.

Can I choose how the camera moves?

Yes. Describe one move, such as a slow push-in, a pan across the table or a gentle orbit around a bottle. Each generation can vary, so simple directions are easiest to follow.

Will the product stay close to my photo?

Motion can shift fine details such as label text, buttons or edges while the product moves through the scene. A simpler movement leaves fewer details changing at once.

Can I make several clips from the same photo?

Yes. Change the movement or clip length for each run. The editor shows the credit cost before generation.
