What you get
What is an AI New Year video?
An AI New Year video is a short clip made from one photo: the person in it counts down, the fireworks burst behind them, and they raise a champagne glass to the camera and wave. Most New Year video makers slide your photos past a template or hand you stock fireworks. This one does the part a template cannot: the people in your own photo move.
Video tool
Upload one photo, keep the default midnight scene or tap a template, and change the city, the outfit or the words in the prompt before you make it. Doing the Christmas clip first? The AI Christmas video generator uses the same photo for the tree and Santa at the door. Kids still waiting up for Santa? Santa caught on camera AI puts him in your living room on night-cam footage.
Creative engine
What the generator is doing
Your photo goes into Seedance 2.0 Mini as the reference for the person in it, and the prompt writes the night around them: the skyline, the fireworks, the glass, the confetti and the moment they turn to the lens. A 10-second AI New Year video is one payment with nothing to renew, and the price is in the FAQ below.

How to do it
How to make an AI New Year video
One photo, one scene, and your midnight clip is back in a few minutes.
Upload one clear photo
Your face clear and well lit. A dressed-up photo from last New Year's Eve looks the part, but any sharp selfie works.
Keep midnight, or tap a template
The default puts you on a rooftop at midnight with fireworks behind you and a glass in your hand. Tap any example above to copy that scene instead, or change the city in the prompt.
Save it and post at 12:01
The clip comes with its own fireworks and party sound. Add a song in TikTok, Reels or WhatsApp Status if you want one, and send it when the clock turns.
Ideas
Who to send your AI New Year video to
Everyone you would have texted "Happy New Year" anyway.

A clip of the two of you clinking glasses under the fireworks, even if one of you is working the night shift.
The group chat
Drop it in at 12:00 and watch who asks how you got fireworks behind your couch.
Clients and followers
A New Year greeting with your own face in it, posted to Stories or sent instead of an email card.
Answers
AI New Year video FAQ
One photo makes a 10-second vertical New Year clip with its own sound; each clip is paid.
Upload one clear photo here, keep the midnight scene or tap a template, and make it: it comes back as a 10-second vertical clip of you under the fireworks with a glass raised to the camera. A photo where your face is easy to see gives the best result.
Use a photo of yourself as the input. The face, hair and outfit come from that photo, and the prompt writes the countdown, the fireworks and the toast around you. Put your message in the caption when you send it: the clip itself carries no text.
With photo-to-video AI: one photo of a person plus a prompt that describes the scene, and the model animates that person inside it. That is what this page does, with Seedance 2.0 Mini and the New Year scene already written for you.
Say who stays the same, where they are, and what happens in order: keep the person from the photo, a rooftop at midnight, fireworks bursting behind, a glass raised to the camera, confetti, a wave. The default prompt here is written that way; change the city or the outfit and keep the rest.
No, each clip is paid. The standard one, 10 seconds of vertical video, is $9.99 as a single video: one payment and nothing renews. Plan credits cover it too, and a run that fails costs you nothing.
Yes. Keep your photo and change the scene in the prompt: red lanterns, a lion dance passing behind you, fireworks over the rooftops and a red envelope in your hands. Everything else works the same way.
Pay once for the clip you came to make
This video is $9.99 on its own, with nothing to cancel later. The packs make each next clip cheaper, their credits never expire, and a run that fails puts its credits back.
