How to create stop-motion videos online

1

Upload your video

Drag a file or browse. We load it in the browser for decoding—no cloud round-trip is required to apply the effect.

2

Adjust hold time & speed

Pick how long each frame is held (0.2s, 0.5s, 1s, 1.5s, or a custom value), then set clip speed from 0.25× to 4×. Preview updates on a canvas so you can feel the rhythm.

3

Process & download MP4

Encode locally, preview the result, and save a standard MP4 you can post, trim, or style further in your favorite editor.

Why creators pick this stop motion effect

Authentic choppy motion

Sample the source on a grid, hold each key image, and avoid the fake filter look—your footage reads like miniature animation instead of a glitch.

Preset + custom holds

Start with 0.2s, 0.5s, 1s, or 1.5s, then fine-tune with the slider or a custom number between 0.05s and 4s.

Clip speed that plays well with holds

Global 0.25×–4× speed changes the final runtime while keeping the stop-motion character. Great for montages and platform time limits.

Thoughtful audio options

Keep pitch-friendly audio, classic varispeed, or mute for a full music-replace workflow in your DAW or mobile editor.

Format friendly

Upload common browser-decodable formats; export to H.264 MP4 for TikTok, Reels, Shorts, and ad networks.
