Adding Photo to Video Online: Still or Moving

Adding a photo to a video online takes two steps on Reviral: import the photo into the browser editor and drop it between clips as its own scene, then drag its length on the timeline. To make the photo move instead of sitting still, turn it into a clip in Cinema Studio first; a 5-second Wan 3.0 clip costs 99 credits (~$1.24).

Editing and export run in your browser.

  • A photo as an intro, outro or middle scene
  • Hold time set by dragging on the timeline
  • Optional: turn the photo into motion with AI
  • Editing and export use no credits

A still photo as a scene

Import the photo in the editor's Media tab and drag it onto the main track where the scene should go: before the first clip as an intro card, after the last as an outro, or between two clips. Drag its right edge to hold it for as many seconds as you want, add a Text layer for a title, and a transition so the cut is softer.

A photo that moves

A still card can feel like a pause. Cinema Studio turns the photo into motion: upload it as a reference, describe what should move, for example steam rising from the cup and the camera pushing in, and pick a length. Wan 3.0 makes 2 to 30 seconds; download the clip and drop it into the editor like any other video.

Photos taken on an iPhone are converted and shrunk in the browser before upload, so you can use them straight from the camera roll.

What it costs

The browser editor costs no credits: free accounts get 3 edited exports a month, up to 200 MB each, kept for 30 days.

Turning a photo into a 5-second moving clip with Wan 3.0 costs 99 credits (~$1.24), shown before you press Generate.

Frequently asked questions

How do I add a photo to a video online?
Import the photo into Reviral's browser editor, drag it onto the timeline where it should appear, and drag its edge to set how long it shows. Export is free for 3 videos a month on a free account.
Can the photo move instead of staying still?
Yes. Upload it in Cinema Studio, describe the motion, and generate a clip; a 5-second Wan 3.0 clip costs 99 credits (~$1.24). Then add the clip to your video in the editor.
How long should a photo stay on screen?
Long enough for a viewer to read every word on it. You set the hold to the exact second by dragging its edge on the timeline, and you can preview it before export.
