Create in a way that feels like you
Two results, one job
You get the colour photograph and the animated clip together.
Period-appropriate colour
Skin tones, fabrics and surroundings are kept natural rather than over-saturated.
Respectful movement
Subtle motion only, so faces and poses stay true to the original photograph.
Private by default
Family photographs stay in private storage behind your account.

Frequently asked questions
How many credits does this cost?
Twenty-eight credits, which covers both the colourisation and the clip. Credits are charged only on success.
Can I tell it which colours to use?
Yes — mention known colours such as a dress or a front door and they will be honoured where possible.
Does the person speak or move a lot?
No. Movement is deliberately gentle, with no talking and no lip-sync.
Can I just colourise without animating?
Yes, use the Colourise Black & White Photos tool for a still-only result at a lower credit cost.
