Simple starting point

Start with one image.

You do not need a full video shoot to begin. Start with one strong image and turn it into a short clip.

1

Upload an image

Use a product photo, AI image, portrait, character, scene, room, food dish or fashion shot.

2

Describe the movement

Say what should move, what should stay the same and how the camera should feel.

3

Create the video

Use the final clip on a product page, Reel, Short, TikTok, ad, website section or social post.

Best first guide

Image to video is the easiest place to start.

Most people already have something they can use: a product photo, AI image, portrait, drawing, room shot, car photo or scene. Stratboost helps you turn that still image into a short video.

Once you understand that, you can use the same idea for product ads, Reels, Shorts, website clips, avatar videos and social posts.
