AI Image to Video Generator
Still images are the starting point — AI generates the motion. Upload an image to Oakgen and animate it with Kling 3 Pro or Grok Imagine Video. Describe the desired movement and generate short clips from product shots, portraits, illustrations, or concept art.

Frequently asked questions
What types of images work best for AI image-to-video?
Product photos, portraits, nature scenes, food photography, architectural images, and concept art all produce strong results. Images with clear focal subjects and good lighting generate the most controlled motion. Busy, cluttered images are harder for the model to animate coherently.
How closely does the AI video match the original image?
Both Kling 3 Pro and Grok Imagine Video can animate a starting image. Try the same prompt in each model and compare motion and reference fidelity for your shot.
Can I animate illustrations and artwork, not just photos?
Yes. Digital illustrations, paintings, 3D renders, and AI-generated concept art all animate. The motion style will match the medium — illustrated art tends to produce stylized, fluid motion rather than photorealistic movement.
What's the maximum video length from a single image?
Oakgen's models generate 5-10 second clips per image. For longer sequences, generate multiple clips from the same or related images and edit them together in a video editor.
Can I add audio to AI image-to-video clips?
Yes. After generating the video clip, add an ElevenLabs voiceover or Eleven Music background track in Oakgen, or combine them in your video editor. Grok Imagine Video can generate native audio with a clip.
One credit balance covers every tool
Credits are shared across image, video, voice, and music generation. Simple images use fewer credits; premium video uses more. The exact cost is shown before generation. Plans start at $9/month.
