Face Animator is a free AI image-to-video tool that transforms static photos into expressive videos.
Upload a face, choose from various reactions and expressions, and watch as the AI creates a lifelike animation.
I tested this tool with an Emma Watson (a personal favorite) photo from the site’s library. I selected the “Sideways-kiss-left” reaction, curious to see the results. In under a minute, Face Animator created a video in which Emma appeared to be giving me a kiss.
How to use it:
1. Go to the Face Animator web app and upload the face you want to animate. If you don’t have one handy, the tool offers a selection of pre-loaded faces, including Trump, Joker, and yes, even Emma Watson.
2. Browse through the extensive library of preset reactions, categorized as “Natural” or “Exaggerated,” and select the one that tickles your funny bone.
3. Click “Generate,” and the AI will apply your chosen reaction to the face you just uploaded. The result is a captivating and often hilarious lifelike video that breathes life into a previously static image.
