FreeVideo AIPrepare a faithful source image
Use a supported PNG, JPEG or WebP up to 10 MB. If the source is damaged, decide whether to restore it separately first. The site animates an image; it is not a historical restoration or evidence-reconstruction service.
Ask for restrained motion
Start with subtle breathing, a gentle blink or a slight movement of clothing. Avoid inventing dialogue or large gestures. Use a fixed camera and a short duration so changes can be inspected.
Distinguish memory from invention
AI motion is synthetic. It does not show what a person actually did or how a historical event occurred. Preserve the original photograph and label the animated version when sharing it.
Respect people and permissions
Consider the wishes and rights of the people shown. Check faces for unwanted changes and avoid presenting synthetic footage as authentic historical video. Public generation does not add speech or recover missing factual details.
Settings and credit budget
Choose 5, 10 or 15 seconds. Text tasks cost 6 credits; image and two-frame tasks cost 8. New Google accounts receive a one-time 60-credit grant valid for 30 days. Landscape output is 896 × 512 and portrait output is 512 × 896 at 24 fps. Each account can have one active task. Wait for a confirmed result instead of repeatedly submitting.
A prompt to start with
The person gently blinks and gives a small natural smile, subtle breathing, a light breeze moves a few strands of hair, head mostly still, fixed camera, one continuous shot.
Use this as a starting point, then adjust one action or camera instruction at a time. It is a prompt example, not a guarantee of a specific result.
