Note
The following explanation applies to almost all of these sites, since the concept is the same
Upload the logo, paste the prompt, then generate

What you need before generating
A PNG logowith a transparent background, if possible
A high-resolution version of the logo to avoid pixelation
The logo colors should be clear and not blurred
The logo should ideally be centered in the image with space around it

Ideal settings before clicking "Generate"
Duration: 5 seconds
Aspect ratio: 9:16 vertical if you want Stories and Reels
or horizontal 16:9 if you want a YouTube intro
Dark cinematic background
No text on screen
No subtitles
No music
No voiceover
If there is an option for the number of copies, set it to 2 and then choose the best one

Step-by-step instructions
1 Open the video generator and select "Generate Video from Image"
2 Upload the logo image as the base reference
3 Set the duration to 5 seconds and the aspect ratio you want
4 Paste one of the ready-made prompts below as is
5 Click "Generate"
6 Choose the best result
7 If you notice a slight distortion in the logo, just regenerate it
and do not change the prompt entirely
Add a single line at the end, such as:
Preserve logo shape perfectly, no distortion, no warping, no extra text

Tips for a more polished result
Choose only one motion per video; don’t combine too many effects
Keep the background simple so the logo remains the star
Request a very smooth camera movement, not a quick rotation
If your logo is flat, choose the Compilation or Neon prompt
And if your logo is suitable for 3D, choose the3D Heroprompt

Ready-made prompts
Copy and paste as is

Prompt 1: Logo Assembly Reveal
Use the uploaded logo image as the exact design reference. Preserve its proportions, shapes, colors, and identity accurately.

Create a premium cinematic 5-second logo animation. The logo starts completely disassembled into its core design elements—shapes, strokes, outlines, particles, and layers—floating separately in space. Then, with elegant motion design timing, each element smoothly flies into place and assembles the logo piece by piece with perfect precision. Add subtle depth, glossy reflections, light streaks, fine dust particles, and soft glow accents. The assembly should feel like a high-end motion graphics reveal created in After Effects and CGI, with clean easing, dramatic anticipation, and a satisfying final lock-up. Use a dark cinematic background, premium lighting, polished reflections, subtle camera push-in, ultra-clean composition, and a fully finished professional logo animation look. Keep the background minimal so the logo remains the hero.

Prompt 2:3D Hero Logo Motion-
Use the uploaded logo image as the exact design reference. Preserve its proportions, shapes, colors, and identity accurately.

Create a premium cinematic 5-second logo animation. Transform the logo into a polished three-dimensional hero object with realistic depth, bevels, smooth edges, premium materials, and elegant reflections. Start with a dramatic close-up of one edge of the logo, then reveal the full logo with a smooth 3D rotation and cinematic camera orbit. Add subtle environmental lighting, soft shadows, glossy highlights, and a luxurious dark studio atmosphere. The motion should feel like a high-end CGI brand ident—sleek, modern, powerful, and visually expensive. End with the logo centered in a strong hero shot, fully lit and perfectly stable. Keep the composition minimal and cinematic, with the logo as the main focus.

Prompt 3: Forming From Nothing
Use the uploaded logo image as the exact design reference. Preserve its proportions, shapes, colors, and identity accurately.

Create a premium cinematic 5-second logo animation where the logo forms out of nothing. Start from total darkness or empty space, then gradually generate the logo from floating light particles, smoke trails, glowing energy lines, and tiny fragments that gather together in a smooth and magical way. The shapes slowly become more solid and defined until the full logo is completely formed in a premium three-dimensional finish. Add cinematic volumetric lighting, subtle spark particles, elegant glow, rich shadows, and a smooth camera move for a dramatic reveal. The result should feel like a luxury CGI title reveal—mysterious, modern, cinematic, and highly professional. Keep the background dark, clean, and minimal so the logo remains the hero.

Prompt 4: Luxury CGI Brand Ident
Use the uploaded logo image as the exact design reference. Preserve its proportions, shapes, colors, and identity accurately.

Create a high-end 5-second cinematic CGI animation for the uploaded logo. Begin with the logo hidden in darkness, then reveal it through sweeping light passes, atmospheric haze, metallic reflections, soft particle trails, and elegant motion. Give the logo premium material quality depending on its design, such as polished metal, glossy glass, matte black, illuminated acrylic, or brushed chrome. Use a dramatic cinematic camera move, subtle depth of field, rich studio lighting, and a refined sense of scale. The animation should feel like a luxury brand identity created by a top motion design studio—sophisticated, minimal, powerful, and visually unforgettable. End on a beautiful hero frame with the logo fully visible and glowing softly. Keep the background clean, dark, minimal, and distraction-free.

Prompt 5: Sculpted Into Existence
Use the uploaded logo image as the exact design reference. Preserve its proportions, shapes, colors, and identity accurately.

Create a premium cinematic 5-second logo animation where the logo is sculpted into existence. The logo begins as raw abstract material, then smoothly carves, extrudes, and refines itself into its final form, as if being crafted by invisible forces. Add premium material transitions, from dust, stone fragments, or liquid metal into a finished, polished logo surface. Use elegant particles, cinematic shadows, subtle glow, and a dramatic camera move. The final result should feel like a luxury CGI sculpture reveal—clean, precise, modern, and visually striking. End with a polished hero shot of the fully completed logo on a dark cinematic background, with soft reflections and premium lighting.

Prompt 6: Particle Explosion Reveal
Use the uploaded logo image as the exact design reference. Preserve its proportions, shapes, colors, and identity accurately.

Create a premium cinematic 5-second logo animation where the logo begins as a powerful explosion of tiny particles, glowing fragments, and light dust bursting outward in slow motion from the center of the screen. Then, after the explosive expansion, all particles reverse direction and get pulled back together with elegant cinematic motion, rebuilding the logo perfectly in the air. Add depth, energy trails, spark particles, subtle smoke, glowing debris, soft reflections, and dramatic lighting. The movement should feel powerful, high-end, and visually satisfying, like a high-end CGI logo reveal. Use a dark, minimalist cinematic background, a subtle camera shake at the start of the explosion, then a smooth push-in as the logo fully forms. End with a polished hero shot of the completed logo, glowing softly with premium reflections.

Prompt 7: Particle Explosion Luxury Version
Use the uploaded logo image as the exact design reference. Preserve its proportions, shapes, colors, and identity accurately.

Create a luxury 5-second cinematic CGI logo reveal based on a particle explosion effect. The logo is initially invisible in darkness, then suddenly erupts into thousands of glowing micro-particles, metallic fragments, dust shards, and light sparks that scatter dramatically through space. After the burst, the particles begin to swirl, align, and reassemble with elegant motion into the final logo shape. Add rich volumetric light, floating debris, subtle shockwave energy, glossy reflections, and a dramatic cinematic camera move. The reveal should feel powerful, futuristic, expensive, and fully polished, like a premium global brand identity. Keep the background dark and minimal so the logo remains the hero.

Prompt 8: Neon Tech Reveal
Use the uploaded logo image as the exact design reference. Preserve its proportions, shapes, colors, and identity accurately.

Create a premium cinematic 5-second neon-tech logo animation. Start in darkness with faint futuristic electric lines and glowing digital traces scanning across the screen. Slowly reveal the logo outline using sharp neon light strokes, holographic edge glows, and moving energy lines. Then build the full logo with sleek luminous surfaces, subtle tech particles, digital flickers, and elegant sci-fi reflections. The motion should feel futuristic, clean, and high-end, like a luxury technology brand identity. Use a dark studio background with soft haze, cinematic lighting, smooth camera motion, and polished neon reflections. End with the logo fully formed, centered, glowing beautifully, and perfectly stable.

Prompt 9: Neon Tech Hologram Version
Use the uploaded logo image as the exact design reference. Preserve its proportions, shapes, colors, and identity accurately.

Create a high-end 5-second cinematic holographic neon-tech animation for the uploaded logo. Begin with thin futuristic laser lines, scanning grids, digital particles, and faint holographic distortion in a dark environment. The logo gradually appears as a glowing hologram made of neon contours, light beams, transparent layers, and animated electric pulses. Then the hologram becomes more solid, refined, and premium, transforming into a sleek finished logo with luminous edges and glossy surfaces. Add subtle glitch accents, depth of field, light streaks, atmospheric haze, and a smooth cinematic orbit camera. The final result should feel futuristic, elegant, luxurious, and visually unforgettable.
