Every template keeps the original timing and framing of the clip and needs just one photo. Pick a viral AI video template and turn a photo to video in minutes.
The catch
Joining a trend is harder than it looks
You have to learn the routine
Every trend has its own timing, and getting it right takes practice in front of a camera.
Someone has to film it
You need a friend, a tripod and a background that matches the framing everyone else is using.
The edit still has to happen
Trim, caption and export before you post, by which time the trend has already moved on.
Side by side
Filming a trend yourself vs. using Shotonia AI
| Filming it yourself | With Shotonia AI |
|---|---|
| Learn the choreography first | No dancing needed, one photo is enough |
| Find a friend or set up a tripod | No camera setup |
| Retake until the timing lines up | Timing follows the original clip |
| Edit and export on your phone | Download a finished MP4 |

About the product
What is Shotonia AI?
Shotonia AI is an AI video template site. Each template recreates a short, recognisable format from social video — a dance, a reaction or a cinematic moment — and places your photo inside it.
Instead of learning the moves and filming yourself, you pick a template, upload one clear portrait and choose a length. The model keeps the original timing and framing, then returns a vertical MP4 you can post.

What is Shotonia AI?
Shotonia AI is an online tool that turns one photo into a short AI video using a template. Pick a format, upload a portrait and the model keeps the original timing and framing.
Which photo works best?
A recent photo of one adult facing the camera, with even light and the head and shoulders in frame. Group shots, sunglasses and strong filters lower the quality.
Photo tips for a better AI videoHow long does a render take?
Most videos finish in 2–8 minutes depending on length and queue. You can close the page; finished videos wait in My videos.
How do credits work?
Each second of video costs one credit. Credits from packs never expire; subscription credits are added every month and expire at the end of that month. Renders use the credits that expire soonest first, and credits are refunded automatically if a render fails.
How do I cancel my subscription?
Open My account → Billing and choose Cancel renewal. You won’t be charged again, and your plan and credits stay available until the end of the current period.
Can I use someone else’s photo?
Only with their permission, and never photos of minors, celebrities or public figures. Accounts that break this rule are closed.
What happens to my photos?
Uploads are private, used only to make your video and deleted automatically 7 days after upload. Finished videos are kept for 30 days after they finish. Deleting your account removes everything right away.
Your next video is one photo away
Pick a template, upload a portrait and download a vertical MP4.
