Turn any still image into a dynamic animation with AI. Upload a photo, illustration, or AI-generated image — the AI adds natural motion, facial expressions, and environmental movement. Portraits come alive, landscapes breathe, and characters start moving.








Drop any still image — portrait, landscape, illustration, AI art, or product photo. The AI handles any format and resolution.
Tell the AI what should move: 'hair blowing in the wind,' 'eyes blinking,' 'clouds drifting across the sky,' or 'camera slowly zooming in.' Or let the AI decide the best motion automatically.
The AI creates a smooth animation in seconds. Preview the result, adjust motion or duration, and download as video. Use directly in your project timeline.
Most animators apply generic zoom or pan. Melies uses AI video models that understand image content — faces get natural expressions, landscapes get environmental motion, and characters get realistic body movement.
The AI understands what's in your image. Portraits get facial expressions and hair movement. Landscapes get wind and clouds. Water ripples, fire flickers, and fabric flows naturally.
Describe the exact motion you want. 'Slow zoom in with hair blowing left' gives you precise control. No keyframes, no timeline — just describe what should happen.
Access Kling, Runway, Luma, Minimax, and more. Each model has different strengths — try multiple models on the same image and pick the best animation.
Add cinematic camera movements — zoom, pan, orbit, crane, dolly. Combine camera motion with subject animation for professional-looking results.
Specialized face animation — blinking, smiling, head turns, and micro-expressions. Bring portrait photos and character references to life with subtle, natural movement.
Animated images feed directly into your Melies project timeline. Animate storyboard frames, character portraits, and scene images — then compose into a full video.
From portrait photos to concept art, AI animation brings any still image to life.

Animate portrait photos — blinking, head turns, smiles, and subtle expressions. Turn headshots into living portraits for social media, film, and creative projects.

Animate storyboard frames to preview scene motion. See how a shot will feel before full production — test camera angles, character movement, and pacing.

Bring AI-generated art to life. Animate illustrations, concept art, and digital paintings with motion that matches the original style.

Create eye-catching animated posts for Instagram, TikTok, and social platforms. Still images with subtle motion get higher engagement than static photos.

Animate product photos — spinning, zooming, reveal animations. Create dynamic product presentations from a single still image.

Gently animate old family photos and portraits. Subtle motion — blinking, slight head turns — brings memories to life while keeping the original feel.
Upload any image, describe the motion, and get a smooth animation in seconds. Multiple AI models, camera control, and portrait-specific animation.
Upload a photo, describe the motion, and watch it come alive. AI animation in seconds — no video editing skills required.
