How to convert an image to video using AI.
It’s easy to turn your graphics or pictures into a video with the image-to-video AI generator. Here’s how to make an AI video from an image using Adobe Firefly:
- Upload your image.
Start by uploading a photo, digital illustration, AI-generated image, or other static graphic under the first Frame box. Optional: To indicate the last frame of your video scene, upload an end frame image under the second Frame box. - Choose your video settings.
Select the desired resolution (up to 1080p) and aspect ratio that fits your project. Whether you’re creating content for social media, the web, or pitches and presentations, it’s easy to tailor the output format. - Set your camera motion.
Pick from smooth pan, zoom, tilt, or directional movement, like left-to-right or top-down. You can also choose different shot styles, such as close-up or wide angle, to create the feeling of depth and cinematic motion. - Preview and fine-tune the results.
Watch a real-time preview of your animated video. You can adjust the camera motion or framing until it looks just right. This will help the visual pacing and focus match your creative vision. - Export your video.
Once you’re happy with the final video, export it directly from Adobe Firefly. Your file will be ready to drop into any project, from b-roll to reels to presentation assets. You can change the export settings to reuse your video in other formats.

How image-to-video AI works.
When you upload an image, an AI model doesn’t just see a flat picture, it interprets the scene. It identifies subjects, estimates depth, and determines how objects relate to each other. Using this understanding, the model predicts realistic motion or camera movement and renders it as a short video clip. The steps below summarize how this happens behind the scenes:
- Understand the scene.
AI identifies objects, depth, and perspective from your image. - Predict realistic motion.
The model learns how similar scenes typically move. - Generate new frames.
It creates a sequence of images that form smooth motion. - Refine the clip.
The model blends the frames into a short, coherent video.
