See what the tool changes.

A real example: the after side is the unedited output of a KinoPipe job. Run the live form above to generate the same result from your own media.

FAQ

About image to video

Why turn an image into a video?

Some platforms and pipelines only accept video: story slots, video references for generative models, slideshow segments for a later merge.

Is audio added to the output?

No. The MP4 contains a video stream only; pair it with add-music-to-video when a soundtrack is needed.
