Image to Video Converter: animate one still into a branded video
Upload one JPG, PNG, WebP, or GIF. ngram turns that still into an editable video with camera motion, optional voiceover, captions, and brand styling. This creates a new video; it does not convert an image into another image format.
Upload the image, review the AI-built storyboard, adjust the motion and narration, then render the version you need.
01
Upload one image
Start with one JPG, PNG, WebP, or GIF. Use a clear product photo, screenshot, illustration, or campaign still that can carry the visual story.
02
Describe the video job
Tell ngram what the video should explain, who it is for, and whether you want narration, captions, callouts, or a particular camera move.
03
Tune the storyboard
Reorder scenes, drop in voiceover from a written script, tweak per-scene duration, swap the transition. Brand Kit fonts, colors, and intro card apply on the fly.
04
Render the version you need
Review the image video for its intended channel, including the crop and caption placement, then export one MP4 from Studio. Prepare and review another aspect ratio as a separate edit. If another file type is required, run that MP4 through a separate one-file, one-output Video Converter job for MOV, WebM, or MKV, or use Video to GIF for a GIF.
Output controls
Smart defaults for the static-to-motion jump. Real knobs underneath.
Per-image motion choice
Use push-ins, pans, or other camera moves to give the still a clear visual beat, then adjust the scene when the automatic choice is not right.
Photomotion on stills
Cinematic camera moves (push-in, parallax, slow pan) applied frame-by-frame so a flat photo reads like footage. Useful when source material is image-only.
Captions matched to the image
Generate captions from the voiceover or script, then review their timing and placement in the editor before export.
Landscape, square, or vertical
Reformat the project for 16:9, 1:1, or 9:16. Review each layout before rendering because a tall or wide crop can change what remains visible.
Select your Brand Kit
Logo lock-up, color treatments, font choices, intro and outro cards pulled from your Brand Kit. Every export looks like the same team made it.
Voiceover from a written script
Type the narration per scene; ngram generates AI voiceover (ElevenLabs or MiniMax) timed to image transitions. Choose a voice once, reuse across videos.
Repeat for product sets
Start with one product image set, render one video, then reuse the same Brand Kit and script template for the next SKU.

Common questions about image to video
How do I convert an image to video with ngram?
Upload one JPG, PNG, WebP, or GIF, or provide a publicly reachable direct image link. Describe the audience and message, review the plan containing the script and motion. After review, Studio exports the image video as one MP4. Prepare and review another channel version as a separate edit.
What image formats does the image to video converter accept?
The visible uploader accepts JPG, PNG, WebP, and GIF, one image per request. If you use a direct link, it must be publicly reachable without a sign-in.
Can I make a video from a single image?
Yes. A single image can anchor a short video with camera motion, optional voiceover, captions, callouts, and brand styling. You choose the message and review the plan containing the script before rendering.
How is this different from AI video generators like Runway or Pika?
Runway and Pika invent new footage from an image prompt. ngram keeps the original image (the screenshot, the product photo, the Figma export) and adds motion, voiceover, captions, and brand styling around it. Pick ngram when the image is the content; pick generative tools when you want AI-imagined footage.
Does the output include voiceover and captions?
Both are available. Add or generate the narration, create captions from the script or voiceover, then review timing and placement in the editor before export.
Can I export multiple aspect ratios from one image set?
You can reformat the project for 16:9, 1:1, or 9:16. Prepare each layout as a separate edit, review its crop and caption placement, then render one MP4.
Can I convert a folder of product images?
Not through the visible uploader. It accepts one JPG, PNG, WebP, or GIF per request. For a catalog, approve one image-led direction first, then repeat that workflow for each product.
Where do my images go after rendering?
Source images and rendered videos stay in your workspace. Talk to sales about retention, access controls, security, and data-handling requirements for your team.
Can I integrate image-to-video into my own product?
ngram supports MCP, Zapier, n8n, and developer workflows for routing approved source material into video projects. Confirm the exact handoff and plan limits for your implementation before automating production.
Can I direct the camera motion in my image video?
Yes. Describe a slow push-in, lateral pan, product reveal, or gentle background motion. Add the image in ngram, review the proposed treatment, then check that the subject and framing remain right for your video.
