Animate an image

An image, brought to life as a short video with its own sound.

What it does

Turns an image into a short video clip with sound (image to video): it starts on the image and moves as the words describe, 4, 6 or 8 seconds, wide or upright, 720p or 1080p, as an MP4. It can also end on the same image, so the clip plays on repeat with no jump.

What it takes

The image the clip starts on, cut from the middle to fill the clip when it is another shape. People in it must be adults, Google's rule for a clip made from an image.

What you get

Video: The clip, an MP4 with sound, at 24 frames a second
