Free AI Cartoon Video Maker

Cartoonizing keeps everything that happens in your clip and changes only how it is drawn — rounded shapes, smooth shading, warm cinematic light. Works on footage you shot on a phone.

What stays, what changes

  • Kept: the motion, the timing, the framing, and who is in the shot.
  • Changed: the style — colors, lines, shading, texture.
  • Free tier: short clips at 720p with a watermark. No card needed.

What is cartoonizing a video?

Cartoonizing a video repaints it with bold outlines and flat colour so it reads as animation. The underlying footage - who is in it, how they move, where the camera goes - stays exactly the same.

How cartoonizing a video works

  1. 1

    Upload the clip to cartoonize

    MP4, MOV or AVI up to 100MB. Works on footage straight off a phone.

  2. 2

    Pick the cartoon look

    Soft 3D cartoon with rounded shapes and smooth shading, or flatter illustration styles if you want something more graphic.

  3. 3

    AI cartoonizes each frame

    The people, objects and movement in your clip all stay — only how they are drawn changes.

  4. 4

    Download the cartoon video

    Free at 720p with a watermark; paid plans remove it and raise the length and resolution limits.
