Turn photos into video clips in under a minute with Oraku

Oraku, a newly launched AI video platform, turns photos, text descriptions or trending templates into video clips in under a minute. It's built for social media creators, small businesses and anyone who wants shareable video without filming or editing software.

What you can make

• Animated clips from your photos: a product shot that zooms and moves, a pet photo that comes to life
• Original video scenes created from one or two sentence descriptions
• Trend-ready videos using weekly updated templates that match what's popular now
• Social media content for Instagram Reels, TikTok or other short-form platforms

Skills and tools you need

• Oraku (check the official site for plans): generates videos from photos, text or templates
• Basic prompting: writing short descriptions of the motion or scene you want
• Source photos: if using the image-to-video feature
• An Oraku account

How to build it

1. Sign up at oraku.com and check how credits work—each generation shows its cost before it starts.
2. Choose your starting point: upload a photo to animate, write a text prompt to create a scene from scratch, or browse templates for trending video formats.
3. For image-to-video: upload your photo and write a short prompt describing the motion or action you want to see (for example, camera movement or how the subject moves).
4. For text-to-video: describe the scene in one or two sentences, being specific about the subject, action and setting.
5. For templates: pick one that fits your content goal, then add your photo or customize the prompt.
6. Check the credit cost shown, start the generation and wait—most videos finish in well under a minute.
7. Download the video and use it as-is, or edit it further in a video editor if you want to add text, music or combine clips.

Prompt to copy

For image-to-video (step 3):

[the motion or camera movement you want]
Example: The camera slowly zooms in on the product as soft light moves across it
Example: The person smiles and waves at the camera

For text-to-video (step 4):

[subject] [action] in [setting]. [optional: camera or style note]
Example: A golden retriever runs through a park at sunset. Camera follows from the side.
Example: A cup of coffee steams on a wooden desk. Morning light streams through the window.

Tips

• Browse templates first if you're new to AI video—Oraku adds new ones every week based on current trends, so you can join a trend while it's still popular.
• Keep prompts focused on one clear action; simple descriptions often work better than trying to describe multiple things happening at once.
• Credits are refunded automatically if a generation fails, so experiment freely to find what works for your content.
