Bring a portrait to life
“Animate this portrait: she blinks, smiles softly and turns her head a few degrees toward the camera. Keep the lighting and background unchanged, subtle natural motion only.”
EveryGen AI Image to Video
Upload a photo as the opening frame, describe the motion, and EveryGen AI turns it into a video with sound. Add a closing frame to decide where the shot ends.

What is EveryGen AI image to video?
EveryGen AI image to video animates a still image into a short clip. The image becomes the first frame, your prompt says what moves, and the video agent writes the detailed shot prompt, picks the model and renders the clip with sound.
It works with photos, illustrations, product shots and AI-generated stills. Clips run 4 to 30 seconds depending on the model, and every take stays in the same chat, so you can ask for a slower camera or a different ending without starting over.

How to turn an image into a video with EveryGen AI
- 1
Upload the opening frame
Drop a JPG, PNG or WEBP (up to 100 MB) into the composer. Add a second image if you want the clip to end on it.
- 2
Describe the motion
Say what should move and what the camera does, for example “slow push-in, hair moving in the wind”. A short line is enough; the agent fills in the detail.
- 3
Render and refine
The clip renders with sound in a few minutes. Ask for changes in the same chat and every version is kept.
EveryGen AI image to video prompts
Upload your image first, then use one of these as the prompt.
Push in on a subject
“Animate this photo with a slow cinematic push-in on the subject, gentle hair movement in the breeze, background softly falling out of focus.”
Parallax landscape
“Animate this still with a 2.5D parallax move: the camera drifts slowly to the right while clouds move and light shifts across the scene.”
Product orbit
“Animate this product photo: the camera orbits slowly around it while a soft light sweep crosses the surface. Keep the background clean and the product shape unchanged.”
Pet comes alive
“Animate this pet photo: it tilts its head, ears twitch and it looks into the camera. Natural fur movement, soft daylight, slight handheld feel.”
First and last frame
“Use the first image as the opening frame and the second as the closing frame. Move smoothly between them with a slow dolly forward and a gentle change of light.”
