About Arch2Video

Arch2Video is a small independent team that turns six architectural renderings or project photos into a 30-second vertical film. How it works, how films are made and how the blog is written.

Arch2Video is a small, independent product built for architects, interior designers and design studios that want to show finished and unbuilt work as short vertical films without hiring a video crew or learning an editor. You upload six images from one project; Arch2Video plans a six-scene story, generates the motion with an AI video model and delivers a 1080 × 1920 MP4 of about 30 seconds, ready for Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, TikTok and Stories.

What Arch2Video does

  • Accepts exactly six renderings, drawings or finished-project photographs from one project, in JPG, PNG or WebP. Full-resolution camera files are fine; they are downscaled automatically.
  • Studies all six images and plans six connected five-second scenes as one story. The AI director decides the scene order, so the film may not follow your upload order.
  • Creates a cinematic 9:16 reference frame for each scene, generates six clips and edits them into one film with an original soundtrack and, if you want, your studio logo. Films exported with a logo also come in a version without it.
  • Emails you when the film is ready. Generation usually takes an hour or more, depending on provider queues.
  • Lets you switch the soundtrack (Still Air, Quiet Piano, Concrete or no music) or change the logo after the film is ready, and re-exports it without using another video credit.

What it does not do

Arch2Video works from images, not from a 3D or BIM model, so it does not produce a measured, geometrically exact walkthrough. AI-generated motion is an interpretation of your images: it can change small details, and it always includes a small cast of original, fictional people in at least one scene so the spaces feel lived in. People who appear in your photographs are not animated; they are replaced by that cast. Review every film before you publish it, and present unbuilt work as concept work.

The example films

The five films on the home page are Arch2Video concept studies made from published project photography and renderings, with credits to the architects and photographers where they apply. They are not client work, and they are not a promise of how any particular set of images will turn out. The original inputs are shown next to each film so you can judge the result against its source.

How the blog is written

The blog is written by the Arch2Video team for people who run or market small design practices. Every article is checked against the product as it actually works, and every external figure, rule or deadline links to the source it came from, usually an official help center, an award organizer or a publisher. Articles carry their publication date, and dated facts are marked with the month they were checked. If you find something that has changed, tell us and we will correct it.

Plans, ownership and privacy

Plans are month to month and can be cancelled at any time; there is no free trial. You keep ownership of the images and logos you upload, and they are used only to create and deliver your videos. Subject to payment and the terms of service, you may use and distribute your generated videos for lawful personal or commercial purposes, and you can delete a video and its project files from your account at any time. The privacy policy explains what the site collects and for how long.
