Make the clip before the day
Holiday clips work best as a greeting. Choose the template that matches the family photo you already have, and use a warm, well-lit picture for the best result.
How to make a clip in three steps
- 1. Pick a template from the list above and open its page.
- 2. Upload the photo the template asks for. Use a clear, front-facing shot with even light. Couple and group templates need one clear photo per person.
- 3. Wait for the render, check the clip, then download it. Keep the audio on when you post, because each clip is built around its original sound.
Each clip is rendered from your photo and the template's reference, so the result depends on the photo you upload. If the first render misses, try a different photo angle before you switch templates. Every template is free to try.
Photo tips for better results
- Use a sharp photo with your face in the upper third of the frame.
- Even daylight or soft indoor light gives a cleaner result than a harsh flash.
- A plain background keeps the edges clean when a template swaps the scene.
- Take off sunglasses and keep hands away from the face unless the template calls for them.

How do AI holiday trends work?
Upload a photo, choose a festive template and the tool builds the holiday scene around your face. The result is a short clip for a card or a post.

Can I make a holiday clip for a family group?
Yes, with one clear photo per person, or one group photo where every face is visible.
Is there a holiday template for Diwali?
Yes. The Diwali template is in the holiday group below.
Which of these AI holiday trends suits a card?
The animated card templates suit a greeting, because the clip opens on the card and ends on the message.
