AI Image to Video in 3 Simple Steps
Start with Your Image
Upload a JPG or PNG with a clear subject. A portrait, product photo, or illustration can be the starting point for your clip.
Shape the Motion
Describe the action and camera movement, then choose a model, clip length, and resolution. Set audio where supported and check the credit cost.
Generate Your Clip
Generate your clip with AI Image to Video. Preview the result, download it, or refine the prompt to try a different direction.
Direct Your Scene with a Motion Prompt
Choose the Main Action
Give the clip one focal moment: a person looking up, a product catching the light, or a drawn character moving.
Describe the Pace
Say how fast the action unfolds and how the camera should behave. Choose a steady view or one simple camera move.
Name What Stays
Identify the details you want to preserve, such as facial features, product shape, clothing, or the style of an illustration.
The orange lantern stays upright on the stone. Slowly slide the camera to the right as its warm light brightens. Let the foreground leaves drift gently. Keep the handle, ribbed glass, and product proportions consistent. One continuous shot, no added labels or objects.
- Focus your AI Image to Video prompt on what should change; the uploaded image provides the starting composition.
- Match the amount of action to the selected clip length. Use a separate generation for a different scene.
- For models with audio, add sound direction on a separate line and review the audio option before generating.

Questions About AI Image to Video
What kind of image can I turn into a video?
Upload one JPG or PNG image up to 10 MB to get started with AI Image to Video. A clear portrait, product photo, or illustration makes a useful starting point. The uploader checks image dimensions and proportions before generation.
How do I choose a model and video settings?
For AI Image to Video, compare the models by their available controls and quoted credit cost. Duration, resolution, and aspect ratio depend on the selected model. Review the updated options and cost whenever you switch models or change a setting.
Will my video include sound?
Some models generate sound with every clip; others let you switch it on or off. Check the selected audio option and describe any desired ambience in your prompt.
Can I try AI Image to Video without buying credits?
Trial access, when available, is subject to eligibility and usage limits. Each generation uses the quoted credits for its model and settings. Review the quoted cost and your available balance before generating. Viewing the public examples does not spend credits.
What should I check before using a generated clip?
Faces, shapes, and small details can change during generation. Review the clip and confirm you have the rights and permissions needed for the source image and intended use. Civon Terms of Service and the selected model provider’s terms apply.
Where can I download my video, and how long is it kept?
Preview or download clips from Recent Video Tasks. Browser history keeps up to eight recent tasks for 24 hours. Guest results keep their original expiry when linked and are not added to My Creations. For new account tasks, the auto-save setting controls My Creations storage; unsaved results last up to 24 hours, while saved creations follow your plan’s retention.
Are my uploads and videos posted publicly?
Uploads and results are not automatically posted to a public gallery. Civon uses private storage and temporary access links. Configured services process the source image, prompt, and settings for generation and content review.
