Domo AI Video Templates
Upload one photo and get a ready-made motion effect
Templates are preset motion and camera patterns: 360 view, zoom in, crane up, looping, groove dance, hug and more. Pick one, upload an image, and DomoAI animates it. There’s no prompt to write and no camera to plan.

The basics
What are Domo AI video templates?
A template is a pre-built motion pattern that DomoAI applies to your image. The camera move or action is already designed, so you choose the effect instead of describing it. They’re found in Image to Video (“Template Animations”) and on DomoAI’s template pages, and developers can use them through the Domo API.
- Camera moves: 360 view, zoom in, crane up
- Motion effects: seamless loops and groove dance
- People effects: hug, kiss and kiss-cam scenes
- Works on photos, anime art, OCs and illustrations

Tips by template type
Motion & loops
- Pick images with an obvious thing to move: hair, water, lights
- Full body in frame for groove dance
- Keep loops short so the repeat feels seamless
- Use loops for backgrounds, stickers and reaction clips
People & emotion
- Both faces clear, well lit and similar in size
- Avoid hands or objects between the two people
- Matching art styles look most natural
- Only use photos of people who have agreed
Comparison
Templates vs prompt-based Image to Video
Use a template when you want a known effect fast. Write a prompt when you need specific action or a custom camera move.
How to write video prompts →| Aspect | Templates | Prompt-based |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | One click | Write and refine a prompt |
| Consistency | Same move every time | Varies per run |
| Custom action | Fixed pattern | Anything you describe |
| Best for | Trends, intros, reveals | Story shots, specific scenes |
| Skill needed | None | Some prompt practice |

For developers
Templates in the Domo API
Use POST /v1/video/template2video with one of the template IDs below. Templates cost 2 credits per second at $0.02 per credit, and API credits never expire.
Template IDs (click to copy)
From the DomoAI Enterprise API template list. Check the docs for each template’s exact input fields.
Consent rules for people templates
Hug, kiss and kiss-cam templates put real faces into intimate scenes. Treat them seriously:
- Never use photos of anyone without their clear permission
- Never use photos of minors in kiss or romantic templates
- Don’t create content to embarrass, harass or deceive anyone
- Don’t present AI scenes as real events; label AI content
Limitations
- Hands, arms and overlapping bodies can show artifacts
- Each template is a fixed move you can’t fine-tune
- Up to 10 s per generation, so chain clips for longer edits
- One template per render; apply a second one to the downloaded result
What are Domo AI video templates?
Pre-built motion and camera patterns, such as 360 view, zoom in, crane up, looping animation, groove dance and hug, that DomoAI applies to your image in one click, with no prompt needed.
How many templates does DomoAI have?
The app offers 10+ templates in Image to Video, and the Domo API lists 9: 360_view, zoom_in, crane_up, looping_animation, groove_dance, hug, kiss, kissing_screen and french_kiss.
What images can I use?
JPG, JPEG or PNG, ideally high resolution. For hug and kiss templates, DomoAI asks for images over 300 px and up to 10 MB: either one photo with two people or two separate photos.
How long are template videos?
Up to 10 seconds per generation. For longer edits, chain several clips together in your editor.
How much does a template cost?
In the app, credits depend on length, and the exact cost shows before you generate. Through the API, templates cost 2 credits per second at $0.02 per credit, so a 5-second clip costs about $0.20.
Can I apply two templates to one image?
Not in a single render. Generate the first effect, download it, then use a frame or the result as the input for a second effect, or combine clips in an editor.
Do templates work on videos?
Templates animate images. To change the look of an existing video, use Restyle Video; to copy a movement from a clip, use Character Animation.
Can I use hug or kiss templates with real people?
Only with the clear permission of everyone shown, and never with photos of minors in romantic templates. Don’t use them to embarrass or deceive anyone, and label AI-generated content.
