FAQs
How do you animate still images into video clips?
If you're using the Blotato web app to make videos:
open your draft video in the editor
click on a GREEN image
on the left side, click "Create Animated Image" purple button
select image-to-video AI model
click "Generate"
wait ~5 minutes
💡PRO tip: you can animate multiple images simultaneously, so that you shorten the length of time you have to wait.
If you're using the Blotato API to make videos:
When you call blotato's Create Video API endpoint, you can optionally animate the first image in your video, or animate all the images in your video.
Check out the API docs here: https://help.blotato.com/api-reference/create-video
However, keep in mind animating videos can cost quite a bit of credits, so I recommend using Framepack because it's the cheapest and works decently.

In the Latest Videos screen, click "Edit" on a video and it returns to the editor screen, where you can make some changes and re-export a new video.

How do you make "evolution transformation" type of videos?
To make "evolution transformation" videos like this:

The start/end image feature enables smooth transformations.
How do you change aspect ratio?
In the upper-right corner of the video editor, click the "Settings" icon.
Then select one of the Aspect Ratio options.
The default is 9:16 for Tiktok, Youtube Shorts, and Instagram Reels.
16:9 is required for long-form Youtube videos.
When you export a video, can you go back and edit it later?
Yes, when you click "Export", Blotato will render your video as is.
But you can always make additional edits and re-export it (re-render).
How long does it take to export a video?
A 60-second video can take 5-10 minutes to export. All your work is always saved, so when you start exporting, even if you exit Blotato, you can go back later to grab the finished exported video.
Does the Blotato video editor work on mobile phones?
The Blotato video editor doesn't have mobile support yet, so features are limited and the UX isn't great. I'm working on a better mobile web version that should be coming in ~2 months.
How do you customize the style or size of AI voiceover captions?
You can customize the style, font size, opacity, and position of the AI voiceover captions in videos.
