Birthday Video From Photos — An AI Greeting in Minutes
Send something better than a text message. This template takes one photo — the birthday person, a cake, a group shot — and adds gentle camera motion, warm light and a short celebratory beat, so the greeting moves instead of sitting still in the chat.
Built for messaging apps, not timelines
The default output is vertical 9:16, which fills a phone screen in WhatsApp, Instagram Stories and WeChat. There is no intro card and no logo: the clip starts on the face and ends before attention runs out, which is what makes it shareable in a family group.
Choosing the photo
One person, front-facing, shoulders and head inside the frame, evenly lit. Group photos work only if you crop to the person you are celebrating — the template animates a single subject, and a second face in frame tends to get distorted. Old scanned photos are fine as long as the scan is clean and the face is clearly visible.
Using it for a shop or a team
Small businesses use the same template for customer birthdays, staff anniversaries and launch-day greetings: swap the photo, keep the format, post it on the day. Shooting one clean portrait per team member in advance means you never scramble for a photo on the morning of.
Cost and refunds
One video costs 10 credits. Packs are one-time purchases and credits never expire, so a pack bought for one birthday still works for the next. If a generation fails, the credits come back automatically.
Photo checklist
- One person, face toward the camera
- Head and shoulders inside the frame
- Even light — window light is enough
- Sharp original file rather than a screenshot

Which format should I pick?
9:16 for Stories and WhatsApp, 1:1 for feed posts, 16:9 for email or a slideshow.
Do I need an account?
Yes — an account keeps the result, your credits and your download link in one place.
