Swipe or scroll sideways for all 8 slides. The whole guide is written out below. ## The guide in text A candle brand’s marketing lead makes a clip for Instagram and TikTok with no video shoot. 5 steps. ## Step by step 1. ### Open Image to Video In the top bar, click Create. Under Generate Video, choose Image to Video. It animates one still picture. 2. ### Upload a clean photo, pick the model A busy or blurry photo gives worse motion. Upload it, then pick the DomoAI 2.5 model under Customize. 3. ### Write the motion prompt Name the subject, one clear action, the setting, the style and a camera move. Then say what must not change. Choose 9:16 and 5 seconds. 4. ### Watch the whole clip Check the credit cost before you confirm, then play the clip. The candle, the label and the table should stay the same. Only the flame and the camera should move. 5. ### Compare two, download one One take is a guess. Generate another version, play both, pick the steadiest candle and click Download. ## Watch it once more - Check the candle, label and colors against the real product. - DomoAI’s own guide suggests the Video Upscaler only after the motion works. - Watermark-free output is a paid-plan feature: check domoai.app/pricing and its terms first.
