Top perks of the photo animation feature

You don’t need any extra software to make your own animated images. Set your still images into motion using various animated photo effects in VistaCreate. Experiment with available effects to choose the perfect one for your photo animation. Once you’re set, adjust the animation settings, preview the result if needed, and voilà — you’re ready to conquer social media with your animated photos.

Animate any design element

Create animated images by making any item in your design move. Apply various photo animation effects to text, frames, or other elements. Make your words pop or animate the background to direct more attention towards your picture.
Adjust the animation

For a more interesting transition, make a delayed animation. In VistaCreate, you can set the custom animation delay time. For example, make one object fade in right away and the other with a 3-second delay. Works best with the text blocks.
Add animated objects

Don’t limit yourself to photo animation effects — enhance your visuals with animated design objects. VistaCreate offers thousands of stunning animations to choose from. Use search in the editor to narrow down your desired topic and find the right animation for your creative idea.

Types of animated photo effects

VistaCreate offers various effects to make your animated photos stand out: Spin, Shake, Wobble, and many more. Besides, you can customize the effect by setting the desired delay and animation speed. Play with photo animation effects in VistaCreate and make truly engaging visuals for social media platforms.

Zoom

This animated effect works great with any design object on the artboard. For example, you can throw several shapes on the canvas and apply the zoom-in effect to some of them, and the zoom-out to those left. This will create a spiral effect.
Fade

Use the Fade animated effect for an image or animation to smoothly appear on the canvas. Add a couple of layers like textures, lines, and shapes to create a modern design. You can do so using our photo editing tools.
Scale

For extra emphasis on, let’s say, a text block, use the Scale animated effect. It can help draw more attention to the most important design element on your canvas, like a sale announcement.
Move

Apply the Move effect to the headings on your artboard. Thus, you can better structure the information on your page and help viewers jump from section to section without missing any details.
