AI Video Generator From Photo: Start From the Moment, Not a Prompt
Most people looking for an AI video generator online don't want a settings panel – they want the hug, the surprise, the trend everyone is posting. Each story on GenModelHub turns one photo (or two) into a short vertical AI video for that moment, with sound. If you already know what you want, the generator on this page also works from text: write your own prompt and choose between Seedance, Veo and MiniMax models. It is not free – a video costs $8.99, paid once with no subscription, and you can order without creating an account. Two photos of two people? Try the AI kiss video generator or the AI hug video generator.

AI Video Generator FAQ: Price, Sign-Up, Sound, Length and Refunds
Is this AI video generator free?▼
No. Every video is paid and there are no free credits. One 15-second video costs $8.99, paid once with no subscription, and the example videos on this page show what you get before you pay. Failed generations are refunded automatically.
Do I need to sign up to make an AI video?▼
No. You can order as a visitor: pick a story, add your photo, pay once, and the download link arrives by email. Signing in with the same email later saves all your videos in an account.
How much does an AI video cost?▼
$8.99 for one 15-second video, or $24.99 for three videos ($8.33 each). It is a one-time payment, not a subscription, and the price is shown on the button before you generate.
Can I make an AI video from a photo or image?▼
Yes. Every story starts from one or two photos of people who agree to be in the video – selfies and gallery photos work. The image-to-video page animates a single photo with MiniMax H3 if you would rather describe the motion yourself.
Can I make an AI video from text only?▼
Yes. Below the stories there is a prompt box: describe the subject, action, setting and mood, then choose Seedance, Veo 3.1 or MiniMax H3. Stories are faster because the prompt is already written.
Does the AI video have sound?▼
Story videos come with sound. In the prompt generator, Veo 3.1 creates audio with the clip; the model pages list which models support sound.
How long does it take to make an AI video?▼
Usually one to three minutes, depending on the model and length. You can keep the page open or close it – the download link is also emailed to you and works for 7 days.
How long can the AI videos be?▼
Story videos are 15 seconds. In the prompt generator a clip runs 4 to 10 seconds depending on the model, and you can join several clips in any video editor.
Which AI video model should I use?▼
MiniMax H3 for quick, affordable clips and photo animation, Veo 3.1 when you want generated sound, and Seedance 2.5 for the most consistent motion across shots. Each model page lists length, resolution and audio support.
Can I use the videos commercially?▼
Yes, videos generated with paid credits can be used commercially, subject to the terms of use and your rights to anything you upload.
What happens if a video fails or looks wrong?▼
A failed generation is refunded to your credit balance automatically. If a finished video isn't what you expected, you can order a remake with different photos or a different scene for $5.99.
What is GenModelHub?▼
GenModelHub is an independent online AI video generator that runs Seedance 2.5, Seedance 2.0, Veo 3.1 and MiniMax H3 through API providers, so you don't need an account with Google, ByteDance or MiniMax.
What makes a good video prompt?▼
Describe the subject, the action, the setting, the camera movement and the mood in one or two sentences – for example: “slow dolly-in on a lighthouse in a storm, waves crashing, cinematic lighting”.
