# How to generate an AI video from image

> Creating an AI-powered video in SVGverseAI is quick and effortless. Follow these steps to bring your still visuals to life with smooth, professional motion.

### **1. Click on “Create Video”**

Open the **AI Video Generator** from your dashboard.\
This is where you’ll upload your image, describe the motion, and choose video duration.

### **2. Upload an image**

You can use any image generated within SVGverseAI or upload your own file (max 10 MB).\
Supported formats include **PNG**, **JPG**, and **SVG**.\
Once uploaded, the image will appear in the preview panel.

### **3. Enter your motion prompt**

Describe the motion you want to generate.\
For example:

> “Smooth cinematic zoom through the landscape”\
> “Gentle panning movement from left to right”

You can also enable **Enhance Prompt** to automatically refine your input for better results.

### **4. Choose aspect ratio**

Select the video aspect ratio that fits your target platform:

* **1:1** – for square posts (Instagram feed)
* **9:16** – for vertical videos (Reels, Shorts, Stories)
* **16:9** – for widescreen or YouTube content

### **5. Set duration**

Choose how long your video should run:

* **5 seconds** – costs **8 credits**
* **10 seconds** – costs **16 credits**

The longer duration provides a wider motion flow, ideal for product videos and reels.

### **6. Adjust optional settings**

* **Private Mode** – Keeps your video hidden from the public community.
* **Add to Collection** – Automatically saves the generated video in your creative library.
* **Negative Prompt** – Exclude unwanted elements (e.g., *no camera shake*).

### **7. Click “Generate”**

Once all parameters are set, click **Generate** to start processing your video.\
The AI will interpret your prompt, analyze the image depth, and apply natural movement.

Within seconds, your final MP4 video will appear with download and share options.

### **Pro tip**

Use clear motion prompts for the best results.\
Try phrases like *“slow cinematic zoom-in on the subject”* or *“dynamic panning reveal”*.\
Keep videos between 5–10 seconds for optimal rendering speed and social engagement.

### **Example use cases**

* Animate a product mockup for marketing reels
* Bring illustrated scenes to life for storytelling
* Add motion to static artwork or UI previews
* Create animated backgrounds for websites or social posts

### **Output format**

All generated videos are exported in **MP4**, optimized for playback on web, social, and mobile platforms.
