Wan 2.2 Animate is Alibaba's open model for character animation: give it a picture of a character and a video of someone moving, and the character performs the same moves. Solmi runs it as its Motion Transfer tool, and this page opens that tool. Upload a photo of the person or character who should move and a reference video of 2 to 15 seconds and up to 20 MB, choose whether the result follows the framing of the video or of the photo, and generate. One run costs 186 credits, whatever the length of the video, and there is nothing to install.
A character photo and a short video in, the character performing the moves out, in three steps.
Wan is Alibaba's family of open video models, and Wan 2.2 Animate is its character-animation model, released as an open model in September 2025. It works in two modes: animation, where the character in your image performs the movements and expressions of a reference video, and replacement, where your character takes the place of the person inside the original video. Solmi runs the animation mode: your character, in your image's look, doing the moves from the clip.
Use a reference video with one person, the whole body in frame, and a steady camera; fast spins, people crossing in front, and cut-off arms or legs are where the motion breaks. Match the photo to the video: a full-body standing photo for a dance, a waist-up photo for gestures. Clothes and hair come from the photo, so dress the character the way the clip should look. A short direction can set the light or the mood, but the movement always comes from the video.
It makes one clip from one motion video of 2 to 15 seconds; for a dance to a whole song, the AI dance video generator plans and renders the full track. It does not run the replacement mode, which puts your character inside your original video. One run costs 186 credits, which a new web account's 20 credits do not cover; for less, Make Photo Dance makes a photo dance to your song from 5 credits a second, with ready-made moves. Solmi is independent of Alibaba and not affiliated with it: it runs Wan 2.2 Animate through a model provider and prices it in Solmi credits.
Yes. Solmi runs it in the browser as its Motion Transfer tool: upload a character photo and a 2 to 15 second video, and generate. There is no install, no GPU, and no workflow to set up.
No. One run costs 186 credits, whatever the length of the motion video. A new web account starts with 20 credits, which do not cover it, so add credits with a paid plan or a credit pack. Credits are refunded if a generation fails.
Animation makes the character in your image perform the moves from the video, in your image's look. Replacement puts your character into the original video in place of the person there. Solmi runs the animation mode only.
The motion video must be 2 to 15 seconds and 20 MB at most, with the character photo up to 20 MB. For a dance to a whole song, use the AI dance video generator, which plans the choreography for the full track.
Wan 2.2 Animate, in its animation mode, as the engine of the Motion Transfer tool. Solmi's other video tools run other models and are priced by quality tier.
