How to make a video from a photo with AI
Upload the photo in the video section, pick a model with the image-to-video mode, for example Kling 3.0, describe what should move and run it. Kling 3.0 renders clips from 3 to 15 seconds. The token price shows on the button before you start, and a failed generation returns its tokens.

Step by step
Upload a clear photo
Use an image where the subject is fully visible and sharp. A blurry or heavily compressed file gives weaker motion.
Describe the motion
Write what changes: a head turn, wind in the hair, a slow zoom. The look and colors are already in the photo, so you do not need to repeat them.
Pick a model and run
Kling and Seedance suit people in motion, Veo suits cinematic shots. Choose the frame format and start the generation.

Frequently asked questions
What kind of photo works best?
A sharp image with good light and a visible face or object. If the person is hidden or cropped, the model invents the missing parts.
Why does the face change a little?
This often happens when the prompt describes the look instead of the motion. Describe actions only and let the photo carry the appearance. Short clips are more stable than long ones.
How much does a clip from a photo cost?
The price in tokens depends on the model and the length, and it is shown on the button before you run it. If the generation fails, the tokens come back.
Can I set a first and a last frame?
Yes, in the models that accept frames you can set both and describe the change between them.
Can I animate an old photo?
Yes, if the image is sharp enough. Old photos with scratches or low resolution are better improved first and then animated.
