Create an AI motion video

Upload a clear portrait and a reference action clip. Animaker recreates that movement on your subject.

Credits remaining—

Generation inputs

One photo and one reference clip make one video and use one credit.

Generation mode

Choose how the reference clip contributes to the result.

Apply the reference movement to the person in your photo and preserve the photo composition.

Three rules decide your result

The photo supplies the face — one person, a face clear and large enough, hands empty
The reference video supplies the motion — one performer, steady camera, 3–10 seconds
When you retry, change one thing at a time

Why AI video generation fails — and how to get better results

Character photo

Face clear and large enough in frame, both hands empty. Holding a phone, bag or anything else badly distorts the motion.

Reference video

One visible subject, steady camera, full or upper body inside the frame. Best first attempt: 3–10 seconds.

Limits: photo JPG/PNG/WebP up to 20 MB · video MP4/MOV up to 50 MB and 15 seconds.

Example result

A portrait plus a real action clip produces a reusable motion video.

The funniest thing you will make all week

Pet dance videos are pure social media rocket fuel. Animaker takes one photo of your dog, cat, or any four-legged friend and transfers a full dance routine onto them — hips, head bobs, and all. It takes about two minutes and the results are reliably ridiculous. Make one for the group chat; make one for their birthday.

What it costs

Your first video is free, and no card is needed to make it.
$3.99 for 5 videos ($0.80 each) after that. One-time payment, no subscription.
No watermark on any video. If a generation fails, the credit comes back automatically.

FAQ

Can I use any pet photo?

Yes — dogs, cats, rabbits, whatever you have. The pet should be clearly visible and facing the camera for the best motion transfer.

Do pet photos need a reference video?

Yes, Animaker is motion-transfer based: a short dance reference clip tells the AI exactly how your pet should dance. Any clip up to 60 seconds works.

Will it look weird on four legs?

Weird — in the best possible way. That is the point. Motion adapts to the pet’s posture, and results range from adorable to comedy gold.
