What 3D Animated does

A sweep of light passes over your photo and you reappear as a bright, rounded cartoon character in a colorful meadow. The character blinks, grins and gives the camera a friendly wave.

You become a 3D animated movie character

You turn into a bright, rounded 3D cartoon character in a colorful animated world. Clear head-and-shoulders photos work best.

Still looks like you

The video opens on your exact photo, so the face, hair, outfit and surroundings carry through the whole effect.

A full transformation in one shot

The change happens on camera in one continuous take, so viewers see the before and the after in the same clip.

How to make a 3D Animated video

  1. Upload a photo, or pick one from your library.
  2. Press Generate. There is no prompt to write; the effect is already set up.
  3. Your 5 second HD video is ready in a minute or two. Save it to your library or download it.

Tips for the best photo

  • Use a clear head-and-shoulders shot. Glasses, curls and bold hair color carry over well and make the character recognizable.
  • Smile slightly in the photo. The character grins on its own, and a neutral start gives it room to light up.
  • Wear a top with a simple pattern or solid color, because the outfit colors are kept in the cartoon version.

Ideas for using it

  • A fresh profile video for a creator who wants a cartoon avatar that still looks like them.
  • A birthday or anniversary greeting sent as a cartoon version of the guest of honor.
  • An intro clip for a kids' storytelling or classroom channel with the teacher as the character.

3D Animated FAQ

Will I look like a child in the cartoon?

No. We tuned the effect so the character keeps your age, with your hairstyle, glasses and outfit colors.

Does it work on a photo with more than one person?

It is built for one person. Use a photo with a single face so the whole transformation lands on you.

Do I need to write a prompt for 3D Animated?

No. 3D Animated is a ready-made effect: upload a photo and press Generate. The directions for the motion, camera and lighting are already built in.

How long is the 3D Animated video, and how long does it take?

Every effect makes a 5 second HD video that matches the shape of your photo, portrait or landscape. Most are ready in one to three minutes, and you can leave the page while it renders.

Does the video have sound?

Yes. Each clip comes with matching ambient sound effects. It does not add music, so you can lay your own track over it in any editor.

Can I use a photo of someone else?

Only photos of adults, of yourself or of people who agreed to it. Every upload goes through the same safety checks as the rest of PixelDojo.
