Real output from this page, at the tier the free credits cover.
Rounded volumes, glossy surfaces, oversized eyes and the warm bounced light animated films use — from frame one. The pavement, the parked cars and the houses are the ones in your photo, rendered rather than photographed.
A café window, a commute, a desk — ordinary scenes cartoon well because the style leans on faces and clear shapes. One small movement per clip: a smile, a sip, a glance.
We ran the identical source photo through both pages on the same afternoon. These are not two names for one effect — pick by the look you want, because one free clip buys you one of them.
Three-dimensional: rounded volumes, glossy surfaces, soft bounced light. Flatters faces and pets, holds up when the photo is busy, reads as friendly.
Flat: cel-shaded blocks of colour, hard-edged shadows, clean line art. Stronger on stylisation and mood, keeps hair and clothing graphic.
What the account behind this page gets you, beyond this one tool.
No subscription to start. Following us earns 20 credits, and a clip here spends 20 of them.
The same balance runs every tool and every model on the account — nothing is ring-fenced to this page.
Seedance, Kling 3.0 Omni, Grok and Gemini Omni Flash for video; Nano Banana and GPT Image 2 for stills.
Seedance 2.5 is already on the tier menu above the button, at 1080p — no migration, same balance.
Upload one photo and this AI cartoon video generator returns a 4-second clip of the same scene rebuilt as a glossy 3D cartoon — rounded shapes, big expressive eyes, soft lighting, your original framing kept. There is nothing to write, no template to choose and no timeline to fill. It takes about two minutes. Following us on X and YouTube earns 20 free credits and a clip here costs 20 at list price, so your first one is free.
Want a cartoon picture rather than a clip? Try the cartoon photo tool
One photo, one button. The clip keeps your photo's shape, so crop before you upload.
People and pets cartoon most convincingly — the style leans on faces and clear shapes. Dark or very busy photos lose detail when they are rebuilt.
480p and 4 seconds is preselected — what the free credits cover. The line above the button opens the model, resolution and length, and reprices as you pick.
The clip renders server-side. You can leave the page — it lands in your videos either way, and downloads as an MP4.
Most tools ranking for cartoon video are animation studios in a browser. They do a different job, and the difference is worth knowing before you pick one.

Use photos of yourself, or of people who agreed to appear in a clip. Cartooning a stranger or a celebrity into a clip they never agreed to is still synthetic media about a real person. Never use photos of minors.
Face compliance runs automatically on every generation, which is why nothing has to be registered first. An automated check is a floor rather than permission: it cannot know whether the person in your photo agreed. That judgement is yours, both for making the clip and for sharing it.
What happens to an upload on this page.
Picking a file only previews it on your device. Not one byte is stored until you sign in and click generate.
Uploads land in your private library, never a public gallery, and re-running the same photo stores nothing new.
Remove uploads and results from your library whenever you want.
One plan unlocks Seedance, Kling 3.0 Omni and every other video model.

Your first clip is free. Following us on X and YouTube earns 20 credits and one clip at the default 480p, 4-second tier costs 20 at list price. After that each generation is billed per clip — there is no free plan and no trial period.
Yes, in one step. Upload the photograph and the clip comes back rebuilt as a 3D cartoon with your composition intact. You do not need to make a cartoon picture first.
No. This page animates one photo for four seconds. Building a multi-scene cartoon with reusable characters, a script and a timeline is a different kind of tool, and one of those is what that job needs.
Not exactly. Cartooning enlarges the eyes and simplifies the other features, so the result is a character based on you rather than you. Pose, clothing, hair colour and setting carry over clearly.
The style, and it is a real difference rather than a label. Cartoon gives you glossy 3D volumes and soft lighting; anime gives you flat cel-shaded colour and hard line art. We ran the same photo through both to be sure — the pair is on this page.
Two different tools answer that, depending on the job. For a photo you already have, turned into a moving cartoon in one step, this page does it for the price of one generation. For a scripted animation with characters, scenes and a voiceover, a template-and-timeline studio is the right shape and this page will not get you there.
That is the tier the 20 free credits cover at this resolution. The line above the button goes up to 15 seconds and to higher resolutions, pricing each combination before you commit.
No. Failed and cancelled runs refund their credits automatically. Trying the same photo again is usually worth one attempt, unless the message says the picture itself was declined by the content filter.
