Animate
Animate a still image into a short video
How it works
- From any artboard, open Video → Create → Animate.
- Give it: Prompt, Negative prompt and Frames.
- Set the options you want, then run it to get back a video.
The finished video is saved to the artboard and appears in its timeline.
Renders are queued and run in the background — you can leave the page while one is working and come back to it.
Where to find it
Any artboard → Video → Create → Animate
/a/{artboard}/video/create/animate/
Playgrounds you have not picked are hidden from the navigation rather than taken away — add this one back from your playgrounds settings at any time.
