Want to bring an AI-generated girl to life with natural, smooth, beautiful motion?

There are two ways to animate an AI girl:

  1. Animate from a single image — soft, cinematic micro-movements
  2. Animate using your own movement reference video — precise, dynamic motion transfer

You can use either method — or try both to find the most realistic and natural result.

Step 1 — Animate Your AI Girl From a Single Image (Image-to-Video)

If you already have a portrait or full-body AI girl image you want to bring to life, open the Image-to-Video tool.

Upload your image, then select:

  • Model: Seedance Pro (best for natural human-like motion)
  • Duration: your choice (5–10 seconds works great)
  • Aspect ratio: match your final platform (9:16 for Reels, 16:9 for YouTube)

Enter your motion prompt. You can describe the movement you want, for example:

A woman is touching her breasts and smiling. She has natural movement, gentle head turns, subtle breathing, soft blinking, realistic hair motion, elegant posture.

Click Generate.

This method works perfectly when you want:

  • a stylish beauty shot
  • soft realistic micro-movement
  • natural breathing and blinking
  • cinematic elegance

Step 2 — Animate Your AI Girl Using a Reference Video (Video-to-Video)

If you want specific movements — walking, posing, dancing, waving, turning, fashion moves, storytelling motions — use this method.

You can use:

  • a reference video found online
  • a video of someone else
  • your own video, if you want the AI girl to copy your exact movements

Open the Video-to-Video tool.

Upload:

  1. Your AI girl image (the character)
  2. Your reference video (the motion source)

Select:

  • Model: Animate (ideal for motion transfer)

Click Generate.

This method is perfect for:

  • precise movements
  • dancing
  • fashion walking
  • hand gestures
  • profile turns
  • storytelling or content-style videos
  • body language matching
  • imitating your own moves

Which Method Should You Choose?

Use Image-to-Video (Seedance Pro) when:

  • you want soft, subtle, natural movements
  • you want a beautiful cinematic look
  • you don't need complex gestures
  • you need stable beauty shots

Use Video-to-Video (Animate) when:

  • you want the AI girl to repeat specific actions
  • you need body movement, dynamic motion, or dancing
  • you want precise gestures and poses
  • you want her to copy your movement from your own video

Pro tip: Try both methods. Often the most realistic result comes from combining the stability of Seedance Pro with the precision of Animate.

Tips for Best Realism

Start with a high-quality AI girl image

Higher detail leads to better video output.

Keep lighting consistent

Soft, clean lighting creates more natural movement.

Choose the right aspect ratio

  • 9:16 for TikTok/Reels
  • 16:9 for YouTube
  • 4:5 or 1:1 for Instagram posts

Use subtle camera motion

Avoid shaking or extreme camera angles.

For motion transfer — choose simple, readable movements

Clear silhouettes produce more accurate results.
