Five styles · made with this tool
Every style lands exactly on your uploaded logo - no prompt, ready in seconds.
- · A PNG with a transparent background, or a logo on a plain colour

- · Want smoke, scenery or a cinematic shot? Switch to AI reveal
Animate a Logo
Upload a logo and pick a style - particles, light sweep, glitch, shatter or neon trace. Ready in seconds, and it always lands exactly on your file. Or switch to AI reveal for smoke, scenery and cinematic shots.
What is the logo animator?
Logo animation gives a static mark motion - a reveal, a shimmer, a build - so it can open a video or hold a screen. Traditionally this means a motion designer and an After Effects project; here the AI generates the movement directly from your logo file.
How the logo animator works
- 1
Upload the logo
PNG with a transparent background works best. A flat JPG works too, the background just comes along with it.
- 2
Pick a style
Particles, Light sweep, Glitch, Shatter and Neon trace need no prompt. AI reveal takes an optional prompt - or leave it blank for a gold light reveal.
- 3
Generate
Five seconds, vertical by default. The clip ends on your logo exactly as uploaded.
- 4
Download
An MP4. Drop it at the head of a video or post it as-is.
Why use the logo animator on Make AI Video
Works from the file you already have
No re-drawing, no vector export, no After Effects project.
Ends on your exact logo
Your file is locked in as the final frame, so the clip always lands on the real mark - not a version the AI redrew. The motion happens on the way in.
Short by design
Intros that run longer than a few seconds get skipped. These are built to be short.
Ready in seconds
Particles, light sweep, glitch, shatter and neon trace are built right in your browser - no queue, no waiting on a model. Every clip is 18 credits and saved to My Videos; new accounts get 18.
What people use the logo animator for
Video intros
The three seconds at the head of every upload, without paying for a motion designer each time.
Social posts
A moving logo stops the scroll better than a static one.
Loading and holding screens
A loop to sit under "starting soon" on a stream.

Questions about the logo animator
What file should I upload?
A PNG with a transparent background gives the cleanest result - the AI can move the mark without dragging a white box along with it. A JPG works, but whatever background it has becomes part of the animation.
Can AI animate logo files without redrawing them?
Yes. AI animate logo effects build motion around the file you upload, and the final frame stays locked to your original logo.
Can I control the animation style?
Through the prompt, yes. Describe the move you want - a reveal, a shimmer, a build - and the AI follows it. There is no timeline or keyframe editor; if you need frame-level control, this is not that tool.
How long is the clip?
Five seconds: the logo builds in and holds for the last second. Logo animations that run longer than that get skipped, so short is the point rather than a limitation.
Can I use it commercially?
Yes - it is your logo and your clip. Check your own plan on the pricing page for the details.
What resolution and aspect ratio do I get?
720p, vertical 9:16 by default for Reels, Shorts and TikTok. Switch to 16:9 for a YouTube intro or 1:1 for a profile loop - your logo is centred on a canvas of that shape. Free runs carry a watermark.
How many credits does one animation cost?
18 credits per clip, whichever style you pick - the five built-in styles and AI reveal cost the same. You are only charged when the video is ready. New accounts get 18 credits with no card.
Do I have to write a prompt?
No. The five built-in styles need none. With AI reveal, leave it empty for a gold light reveal, or tap Try an example for a corporate, neon or particle build. Describe how the logo should arrive - there is no need to ask it not to distort the logo, the final frame is locked to your file.
