I built a tool to bring your photos to life – Imagemotion AI

Hacker News

Hi HN, I built https://imagemotion-ai.com a tool that generates short videos from an image using AI. The motivation came from experimenting with generative video models. I wanted something lightweight where you can just upload a photo and get back smooth motion (camera moves, storytelling, etc.) without dealing with model details or GPUs locally. Current features: • Supports photos, artwork, and high quality renders. • Outputs short clips (up to ~10s at 4K) • Runs completly in the cloud, no setup required • Storage Thanks for checking it out — your thoughts would be really valuable!
