Upload a photo. Describe the motion. Skrrol animates it into a finished clip and opens the studio on top.
Image-to-video is the production workhorse of AI video. Instead of generating from scratch, you start with a still image — a product shot, a portrait, concept art, a moodboard tile — and tell the model how to animate it. "Camera pulls back slowly." "She turns toward the camera and smiles." "The product spins 360 degrees." The model brings it to life.
This workflow is why image-to-video often beats text-to-video for consistency. You control the exact framing, lighting, subject, and identity in the still. The prompt only describes the motion. Studios use this to animate concept art and storyboards; creators use it to turn a single photo into vertical Reels and Shorts content without reshooting.
Skrrol AI runs image-to-video through Sora 2 and Veo 3, the same models as text-to-video. Upload the still, describe what you want to move, pick your aspect ratio, and generate. The output opens straight into the studio so you can trim, color-grade, add captions, pair with music, and export — all without leaving the browser.
Image-to-video costs a bit more than text-to-video because the model respects the source image's detail. The Free tier is enough for a few test runs; Standard at €7.99 covers creator-scale production; Advanced and Advanced Pro are for studios running variant packs and daily animation cycles.
Choose per clip. Sora 2 for cinematic motion; Veo 3 for naturalistic physics and grounded movement.
Start with your exact subject, lighting, and framing. Prompt only the motion — no unwanted drift.
Describe camera moves, subject motion, and timing. The still's composition is already locked.
Generate 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, or 21:9 to match where you're publishing.
The clip opens in the timeline. Trim, grade, add music, stack into sequences, export.
The source still is locked; re-roll motion prompts to generate multiple takes from the same frame.
Result: A vertical clip preserving the exact identity while introducing subtle believable motion — perfect for Reels.
Result: A hero animation for product pages — shows multiple angles without reshooting.
Result: Concept art brought to life for pitch videos, trailers, and VFX showreels.
Result: A cinematic pan that works as a hero video or B-roll transition.
Sign in, click Generate, pick the Video tab, and choose Image-to-Video.
Drop in a still from your device or pick one from your library. JPEG, PNG, or HEIC work.
Camera moves, subject motion, timing. Be specific — "pulls back slowly" beats "moves".
Sora 2 for cinematic; Veo 3 for naturalistic. Choose 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, or 21:9.
Hit Generate. The clip lands in your library. Re-roll motion prompts on the same image to test variations.
Open in the studio. Trim, grade, add music, layer multiple AI clips into a sequence, export.
Skrrol AI uses VL credits across all generators - image, video, voice, and music. The same credit pool applies; heavier modalities (video) use more credits per generation than lighter ones (image, voice). Choose a plan and use credits across any generator.
Trial credits for a few test animations. Watermarked.
8000 VL credits — comfortable for a weekly content cadence with multiple takes per clip.
17000 VL credits — daily iteration and variant packs without rationing.
35000 VL credits — production studio volume for daily multi-clip sequences.
Image-to-video starts with your exact subject and framing, locking identity and composition. Text-to-video generates everything from a prompt. Image-to-video wins on consistency; text-to-video wins on speed and creative control over the whole scene.
JPEG, PNG, HEIC, and other common formats. The image stays on your device; it goes to the model provider only during generation.
Yes — generate separate clips from different source images and stack them on the timeline. Skrrol's sequencing makes it easy to cut between animated stills and add transitions.
A bit more than text-to-video because the model processes the source detail. Standard at €7.99 covers creator production; Advanced and Pro cover studio volume.
Yes — trim, grade, add effects, music, captions in the studio. If a take misses the motion, re-roll and replace on the timeline.
Image-to-video is excellent at identity preservation — that's its main strength over text-to-video. The model respects the source image's framing and subject, and only animates the motion you prompt.
Every generation opens directly in the Skrrol Studio. These features are especially useful as the next step after a image-to-video ai generator run.
