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. ## Specs for the logo animator - You provide: 1 image (JPG, PNG, WebP) + a prompt (optional) - You get back: An MP4 you can download and post anywhere - Aspect ratio: 16:9, 9:16 or 1:1 - Length: 5 seconds - Resolution: 720p - Cost: 18 credits per clip, any style · new accounts get 18 ## 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. ## Try the logo animator free 18 credits per clip, any style.
