From an image idea to a finished video

This project connects the main creation tools. Make one still image, refine it, then animate it. Each generation is a separate job with its own cost.

1. Make the starting image

Follow Your First Image. Try one subject and a simple composition:

A red fox beside a forest stream, wide shot, soft sunrise, storybook illustration

Choose a result with clear subject placement and room for the motion you intend. Save it before continuing.

2. Refine the still frame

If needed, open Magic Edit and ask for one change while naming what must stay. For example: “Add a few fallen leaves beside the stream. Keep the fox, framing, and lighting.”

Upscaling is optional. Larger input is not automatically better for every video model; check the selected workflow's controls and limits.

3. Animate it

Open Video Generation and choose the starting image. Describe a small movement:

The fox turns its head toward the stream. Water flows gently. The camera remains still.

Review model-specific inputs, duration, privacy, and pricing. Submit, then watch the whole completed clip.

4. Finish and organize

Download the result. Use media tools if you need to trim, combine, or resize it. Keep related results in a collection.

If motion is unstable, simplify it and retry with the same starting frame. See Troubleshooting before submitting repeated jobs.
