Animate a picture Runs on our GPU
Make your picture move. Turn a still picture, or a sentence, into a 2-second moving clip.
18 credits · about 18 min on our GPU with Wan2.2 · 480p · 2 s
Give it a picture and say what should move: fire flickers, rain falls, the camera drifts. Wan2.2 keeps the look of your picture and adds 2 seconds of motion. Without a picture it makes the clip from your words alone. No sound.
What you can do
Each example is a real run on our GPU: what went in, the exact instruction, and the result exactly as the model made it. Pick one to see it, then start from the same instruction.
What we asked
A slow cinematic push-in on a snowy mountain valley at night; the campfire flickers and throws moving light on the snow, stars twinkle, thin smoke rises, the camera drifts forward gently.

Only the instruction: no file.
What we asked
Empty rain-soaked street at night lit by magenta and cyan neon signs without text, reflections rippling in puddles as raindrops fall, slow sideways camera glide, cinematic, no people.

What we asked
The futuristic concept car drives forward through heavy rain at night, wheels turning, spray and neon reflections streaking on the wet road, lightning flashes in the storm sky, tracking shot.

3 examples from our own runs, with the times we measured. Open "Prompt and settings we used" under any of them for the exact input.
Starry mountain campfire comes alive
Picture in: the wallpaper's look is kept and the fire, stars and camera move. 2 s at 448x832 in about 19 min.
The picture that went in
Prompt
A slow cinematic push-in on a snowy mountain valley at night; the campfire flickers and throws moving light on the snow, stars twinkle, thin smoke rises, the camera drifts forward gently.
Neon rain street, from words only
No picture: the scene is built from the words. No text or figures drawn. 2 s at 832x448 in about 17 min.
Prompt
Empty rain-soaked street at night lit by magenta and cyan neon signs without text, reflections rippling in puddles as raindrops fall, slow sideways camera glide, cinematic, no people.
Concept car in the rain, 720p
Picture in at 720p: sharper, but about 41 min for 2 s. Fast motion is harder to keep crisp than ambient motion.
The picture that went in
Prompt
The futuristic concept car drives forward through heavy rain at night, wheels turning, spray and neon reflections streaking on the wet road, lightning flashes in the storm sky, tracking shot.
The prompt and the model decide the output; bigger models and settings cost more credits. These notes come from what worked, and what did not, in our runs.
Times are end to end on our GPU (an RTX 4060 Laptop GPU, 8 GB), model loading included, before any jobs ahead of yours. "Estimate" marks an option we have not measured yet.
| Option | Credits | Typical time | Slowest seen | What to expect |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wan2.2 · 480p · 2 sRecommended | 18 | 17 min 49 s | 18 min 44 s2 runs | Measured: 18 min 44 s (picture in) and 16 min 55 s (words only) for 2 s at 448x832 / 832x448. |
| Wan2.2 · 720p · 2 s | 41 | 40 min 38 s | 40 min 38 s1 run | Sharper but more than twice the time: measured once, 40 min 38 s for 2 s at 704x1248. |
Step-by-step recipes that use Animate a picture with other studio tools, with the credits each step costs.
You answer for your prompt and your choice of model and settings; the safety filter still checks every job, and a refused prompt costs nothing.

You'll have 7 days to download it; then it's deleted.
Results are kept 7 days. Credits come back only if the job fails or never starts.
Reading the line…
Credits are held when you send a job and spent when the result is ready. They come back automatically if the job fails, is refused or has not started within 24 hours. Results are kept 7 days, or 48 hours after your first download, then deleted; a result that expires unused is not refunded. Pricing and refunds
No. With a picture the clip keeps its look; without one the model builds the scene from your words.
On this 8 GB GPU a 2-second clip already takes 16-40 minutes. Longer clips would tie up the GPU for hours.
Only of yourself or with that person's permission, and the content filter still applies. Scenery and objects work best.
480p for phones and social posts (18 credits). 720p is sharper but costs 41 credits and takes about 40 minutes.
No. For a clip with sound use Cinematic video with sound.
