Put any video’s moves on your photo

Motion Transfer AI

Upload a dance video and a photo of you. The AI transfers the motion from the video onto your photo: same steps, same timing, same camera and sound, new dancer. No filming, no learning the choreography, no editing.

How to transfer motion from a video to a photo

01

Upload the video to copy

A TikTok, Reel or Short as an MP4, 4 to 30 seconds. One continuous shot of one dancer copies best. It becomes @Video.

02

Add your photos

One full-body, front-facing photo per person you want in the video, up to four. They become @Image 1 to @Image 4.

03

Prompt only if you need to

Leave it empty and people are replaced left to right. Write a line to say who becomes whom, or to change an outfit or a prop.

04

Pick a quality and generate

480p or 720p HD, with the price on the button. The video renders in 5 to 10 minutes and lands in your Projects.

What AI motion transfer does

Motion transfer reads the movement in a video frame by frame, then redraws every frame with the person from your photo in the dancer’s place. Unlike motion capture it needs no suit or markers, and unlike a face swap it replaces the whole person, so body shape, skin tone and clothes come from your photo too. Unlike image-to-video it invents nothing: the moves are copied from a real clip, which is why the timing lands on the beat.

That makes it the fastest way to post a dance trend without filming, to put friends, kids, grandparents or pets into a video, and to make duets and group dances from a few photos. Read the full explainer.

Get a clean result

Pick a video that copies well

  • One main dancer with the whole body in frame, feet included.
  • A single continuous take. Jump cuts and transitions confuse the result.
  • A steady or slowly moving camera. Handheld is fine, whip pans are not.
  • Little on-screen text. Captions and stickers usually stay in the result.
  • 15 seconds or less if you can. Short videos cost a fraction of long ones.

Pick a photo that looks like you

  • Full body, head to toe, so legs and shoes do not have to be invented.
  • Facing the camera in even light. A sharp face in means a sharp face out.
  • Nothing in the way: no bag, chair or other person over your body.
  • Wear the outfit you want. Clothes come from the photo.
  • No sunglasses or hats unless you want them in the video. Nothing is added that the photo does not show.

Prompts: who becomes whom

Every upload gets a tag: @Video for the clip and @Image 1 to @Image 4 for your photos. With one dancer and one photo you can leave the prompt empty. Use it when the video has several people, or when you want a new outfit, an accessory or a different prop.

Duet

The person on the left in @Video becomes @Image 1 and the person on the right becomes @Image 2. Keep their faces, hair and outfits exactly as in their photos.

New outfit

Replace the dancer in @Video with the person in @Image 1. Keep their face and hair from @Image 1, but dress them in a black tuxedo with a white shirt.

FAQ

AI motion transfer questions

What is AI motion transfer?

AI motion transfer copies the movement from a video onto a person from a photo. The video decides the moves, timing, camera, background and sound. The photo decides who is performing: face, hair, skin tone, body and clothes. The result is a new video of that person doing the original moves.

How do I transfer motion from a video to an image?

Upload the video you want to copy, add one photo per person, pick 480p or 720p and press Generate. No prompt is needed for a single dancer. The finished MP4 is ready in a few minutes.

Is AI motion transfer free?

Signing up is free, with no credit card needed. A motion transfer video up to 15 seconds costs 20 credits at 480p or 40 at 720p HD, and 15 to 30 seconds costs 100 or 215 credits. One-time credit packs start at $12.99, never expire and have no subscription. Failed renders are refunded automatically.

How long can the video be?

From 4 to 30 seconds, as an MP4 under 50 MB. Videos up to 15 seconds are the cheapest and copy the most reliably, so trimming a longer clip in your phone first is worth it.

Can I put more than one person in the video?

Yes. Add up to four photos, one per person. With no prompt the people in the video are replaced from left to right in the order you added the photos. To be precise, write a prompt such as “the person on the left in @Video becomes @Image 1”.

Does it work with pets?

Yes. Use a clear full-body photo of your dog or cat, ideally standing. Name the details you care about in the prompt, like fur color or a collar, and the animal follows the dancer’s moves.

Can I change the outfit or add something to hold?

Yes, with a prompt. Keep the face from the photo and describe new clothes, or swap what the person holds for something of a similar size. The motion transfer prompts guide has ten copy-paste examples.

What formats are supported?

JPG or PNG photos and MP4 videos. MOV files are not supported yet, so export them as MP4 first. The output is always an MP4 you can download and post to TikTok, Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts.

Whose videos and photos can I use?

Your own videos and photos are always fine. For someone else’s dance, ask the creator or credit them when you post. Only use photos of people who agreed to be in the video, and do not upload celebrities or strangers.
