Browser video editor
A small studio for a great first draft.
Example images are AI-generated. Your video is an animated image with your captions, without generated footage or audio.

Start a browser video editor project with one clear message
This browser video editor turns one image and three captions into an animated draft. Decide what viewers should understand: a product introduction, personal observation, or quiet moment. Choose an image that supports that message before adjusting its presentation.
You can use the sample template as a quick preview, but replace the captions before treating the result as your own project. The example images are AI-generated illustrations. Choose your own JPEG, PNG, or WebP when the short represents an actual product, person, or place. The current file limit is 10 MB, and the selected image stays in local browser memory for this session.
Choose a browser video editor starting structure
The browser video editor offers six caption structures: product reveal, product details, creator story, question hook, daily routine, and cinematic lifestyle. The template library explains each format with a worked example so you can choose by the story's purpose.
Replace the sample words while keeping each scene's purpose. Follow the Hypit video tutorial for help moving from a brief to the editor's controls.
Write three scene captions that work together
In this browser video editor, introduce the topic, add information, then complete the thought. Adapt those roles to your format. Give the middle a visible feature or concrete observation instead of repeating the same promise across three scenes.
Each caption is limited to 120 characters. The limit prevents some oversized inputs but does not guarantee comfortable reading. Watch the line breaks in the preview, shorten crowded sentences, and read the sequence at a normal pace. The short video hooks guide can help when your first line is broad or when the body does not answer the opening question.
Use local image animation with an appropriate crop
Local image animation uses the same photograph throughout. It creates neither independent object movement nor new camera angles. If captions need separate demonstrations, prepare a shot plan for a tool that can assemble the required footage.
Portrait output is 720 by 1280 pixels, and square output is 720 by 720 pixels. The image fills the selected canvas, so some edges may be cropped. Preview both options when the subject sits near an edge or when a landscape photograph contains several important objects. Keep captions readable against the actual background rather than relying on a color choice that only works in a different crop.
Set the duration in the browser video editor
Choose three to eight seconds per scene in the browser video editor. All three scenes use the same selected duration, creating a total length of nine to twenty-four seconds. The default is five seconds per scene. If one line takes too long to read, shortening that line may produce a better balance than extending the entire piece.
Play the full sequence after changing timing. Ask a reviewer what they understood without explaining the brief. Their answer can reveal a missing connection or repeated idea that a single attractive frame would not expose.
Export from the browser video editor
The free WebM maker records the animated image and captions as a silent video. Export happens in real time, so keep the page active while recording completes. Browser support and device workload can affect the recording. If a result looks uneven, try a shorter foreground export and inspect the new download rather than assuming the preview and output are identical.
Open the downloaded file and watch every scene. Use the video export checklist to review the crop, captions, duration, and final frame. If a destination needs MP4 or an audio track, complete that work in a suitable external editor and review the converted result again. This browser video editor does not add music, voiceover, or a native MP4 conversion step.
Keep a video script download with your source image
Save a video script download when you want a readable copy of the captions and notes. The JSON brief preserves structured planning information, including the template and scene settings. These downloads are useful for review and handoff, but they do not contain the custom image and are not native project files for an external Hypit application. Keep the original asset in the same project folder.
The browser video editor saves text preferences locally when browser storage is available. They belong to this site in this browser profile; they do not synchronize automatically across devices. An uploaded image must be selected again after the session ends. If the work matters, rely on your saved source files rather than on browser storage alone. The video privacy page explains how to clear site data on a shared device.
Know when to move beyond the browser video editor
Use this small editor when a single-image draft answers the creative question in front of you. When the project requires generated footage, narration, several source clips, frame-accurate audio edits, or a managed production queue, document those needs and choose a suitable tool. The independent workflow comparison explains how this studio differs from the referenced Hypit resources and agent-based workflows.
Save the approved script, original image, and exported file under a clear version name. When testing a different opening, keep the rest stable. Record what changed and what reviewers understood so the next revision builds on an identifiable result.
