AI Image to Video
AI image to video: bring your photos to life
Upload a photo and expidvid animates it. The image becomes your first frame, a vision model writes the motion for you, and a few seconds of cinematic video render in minutes — from product shots to portraits and artwork.
Photo to video without an editor
Traditional animation of a still means masking, keyframes and parallax layers. Image-to-video skips all of it: the model infers depth, light and plausible movement from the picture itself.
- JPG, PNG or WebP up to 5 MB
- One-tap scan writes the motion prompt for you
- Your photo is preserved as the opening frame
- 5, 8 or 10 second clips in 16:9 or 9:16
What to animate first
Anything with a clear subject and clean lighting works well. Product photos gain slow orbits and shifting highlights, landscapes gain drifting clouds and light, portraits gain subtle push-ins.
- Ecommerce product shots and packaging
- Real estate and travel photography
- Illustration, concept art and album covers
- Archive photos and family pictures
Prompts that keep the photo intact
Describe the camera, not new content: 'slow push-in, gentle parallax, light shifting across the surface' holds your image far better than asking for extra objects or a new setting.

Frequently asked questions
How does AI image to video work?
Your photo becomes the first frame of the clip. The model reads the image, keeps the subject, framing and style, then generates the following frames so the scene starts moving from exactly where your picture left off.
What image files can I upload?
JPG, PNG and WebP images up to 5 MB. Sharp, well-lit photos with a clear subject animate the most cleanly.
What does 'scan photo' do?
Scanning sends your image to a vision model that describes the subject and suggests camera and subject motion. The description drops straight into the prompt box, and you can edit it before generating.
Will the animation change my product or face?
The photo anchors the first frame, so the look is preserved. Keeping the prompt focused on camera movement rather than new details gives the most faithful result.
Can I make a vertical video from a photo?
Yes. Choose 9:16 before generating for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, or 16:9 for YouTube and websites.
