AI Character Animation

Upload one character image (anime, 3D, 2D cartoon, a mascot or a real person) and pick a 5–30 second motion video. Move v2 makes your character perform the same moves, frame by frame, and keeps the music from the reference video. No rigging, no keyframes.

How to Animate a Character with AI

Step 1

Upload Your Character Image

Upload a clear, full-body image of your character, standing and facing the camera with arms visible. Anime art, 3D renders, 2D cartoons, mascots and real photos all work.

Step 2

Select Motion Video

Pick one of the motion templates or upload your own 5–30 second video of one person moving. A steady camera with the whole body in frame gives the cleanest result.

Step 3

Generate Your Character Animation

Click Generate and Move v2 transfers the motion to your character in a few minutes. Preview the result and download it as an MP4, ready for TikTok, Reels or your next project.

Key Features of AI Character Animation

Animate Any Character Style

Anime heroes, 3D cartoon figures, flat 2D mascots, plush toys or real people: upload one full-body image and Move v2 makes that character move while keeping its art style intact.

Copy Motion from Any Video

Pick a motion template or upload your own 5–30 second clip. Every step, punch and spin in the reference video is transferred to your character, frame by frame.

Consistent Character, Start to Finish

Move v2 keeps your character's face, outfit and proportions stable through the whole clip, even on fast moves and turns, so it still looks like the same character in the last frame.

AI Character Animation FAQ

What is AI character animation?

It turns a still character image into a moving video. On GoEnhance you upload one image and one motion video, and Move v2 transfers the motion from the video to your character while keeping its look and art style.

Can I animate anime, cartoon or 3D characters, not just real people?

Yes. Anime illustrations, 3D renders, flat 2D cartoons, mascots and plush toys all work, as long as the character has a recognizable body with arms and legs. The examples on this page were made from AI-generated characters in each of these styles.

How long can a character animation be?

The output follows your reference video, which can be 5 to 30 seconds long. Move v2 renders at 480p and keeps the reference video's audio.

What kind of character image works best?

A full-body image with the character standing, facing the camera and arms visible. Avoid crops at the knees or chest: if the reference video shows the whole body, a cropped image can lead to missing feet or a cut-off head.

Do I need my own motion video?

No. You can pick one of the motion templates, such as APT., Subject 3, Running or Wiggle Storm. You can also upload your own 5–30 second clip of one person moving, ideally filmed with a steady camera.

What is the difference between Move v2 and Replace v2?

Move v2 keeps your image's background and makes your character perform the moves. Replace v2 keeps the reference video's background and puts your character in place of the person in it.

How is GoEnhance different from Viggle?

Both turn a character image and a motion video into an animation. GoEnhance keeps the music from the reference video, charges per second of video you generate, and puts AI Dance, Talking Avatar and 30+ video models on the same account. Viggle offers more background options (solid or transparent), longer motion uploads on paid plans and 3D motion export for game engines.

How much does it cost?

Move v2 and Replace v2 cost 3 tokens per second of video at 480p, so a 10-second animation costs 30 tokens.
