Video from several scenes

You upload a few photos in the order they should appear - and the system builds one film from them: a separate shot for each photo, a hard cut between them and calm camera movement matched to what is in the frame. Whatever is in the photos - a product, an interior, a place, people - stays unchanged. Only the movement, the framing and the mood are new.

What it is for

  • Who it is for: people presenting an offer, property, interiors, a portfolio, or preparing material for social media.
  • Use it when: you have several photos of one place or subject and want a short film instead of a gallery.
  • If you have a single photo and want to bring it to life, use the Video from a photo module. If the film should speak, see Video with an avatar.

Info

The order of the uploaded photos is the order of the shots in the film. The first photo becomes the first shot - it is worth setting deliberately.

Before you start

  • Permissions: a role allowed to use services (member and above).
  • Module enabled: "Video from several scenes" must be active for your company.
  • Material: several photos of the same subject - the better the quality and the light, the calmer the result.

How to make a film

  1. Open Video from several scenes from your company menu.
  2. Upload the photos or pick them from the asset library and arrange them in the order they should appear.
  3. Briefly describe what should happen - the mood, the pace, what the frame should focus on. You can leave it empty; the system matches the movement to what it sees in the photos.
  4. Choose the length of the film. A shorter clip means faster shots, a longer one calmer shots.
  5. Click Generate. Preparation usually takes from one to a few minutes.
  6. Watch the result and, if it fits, download the film or leave it in the asset library, from where you can publish it.

Limits and notes

  • Monthly limit: every generated film reduces your company's monthly limit - no matter how many shots it had.
  • The photos stay unchanged. The module does not draw in or swap what is in the frame; it only adds movement and mood.
  • Frames with people follow a different route than frames without them - this is deliberate and affects the available options.
  • The higher render level costs more and is enabled by your WebImpact manager. If your company does not have it, the film is produced at the standard level.

Uwaga

This is material for a presentation and social media, not documentation. The film conveys the mood of a place - do not treat it as a faithful rendering of dimensions or of the layout of rooms.
