Graduation Video Maker — Memories
Graduation video maker by Hotel Lobby AI asks AI for a 5–15 second memory from 1–4 photos, with gentle motion and music.
Make a graduation memory
Checking the signed-in account before restoring photos…
The graduation video maker asks AI to recreate 1–4 school photos as a 5–15 second keepsake, up to 1080p by model. The default 10-second video costs 13 credits (about $0.48); faces and details may change. The 10 signup credits do not cover the 11-credit minimum. Unpaid accounts receive watermarked video; any paid order unlocks clean downloads.
How the graduation video maker works
The graduation video maker requests a short story from early school photos, campus memories and a final graduation portrait. Upload a few clear photos in that order, then choose the movement and frame below. AI is asked to recreate the sequence; this tool does not assemble an exact copy of your original photographs.
1. Upload in story order
Use 1–4 JPG, PNG or WebP photos. Add them in chronological order; remove and re-add a photo to change its place.
2. Choose the motion
Memories asks for gentle cuts and slow camera moves. Portrait requests small movements; Celebration requests small waves. Custom uses your description within the same photo sequence.
3. Check the exact credits
Pick 5, 10 or 15 seconds, your model, resolution and frame. The default is Seedance 2.0 Mini, 10 seconds, 480p, for 13 credits.
4. Review and download
Check every face and the photo order before sharing the MP4. Add exact names, dates and your own song later in an editor.
Graduation video ideas
A graduation story can stay close to the moment: a family portrait, a quiet tassel ceremony or friends celebrating on the lawn. These short clips show different amounts of motion. Use a clear photo that already contains the people and place you want; a simple scene gives the model less to invent.
A family moment

How do you make a graduation video with pictures and music?
The graduation video maker requests one short sequence from up to four photos, with instrumental music requested in the same job. Put early memories first and a graduation portrait last, then select Memories and 10 or 15 seconds for calm pacing. You cannot upload a song here, and AI does not preserve photographs exactly; use an editor for a long graduation slideshow or precise music timing.
A simple 15-second plan: photo 1 opens the story, photos 2–3 carry the school memories, and the final photo closes it. With four photos, that is roughly 3–4 seconds per moment; this is a requested sequence, not a guaranteed timeline.
Is this a free graduation video maker?
The graduation video maker is not free to generate: making a video costs credits. Watching examples and selecting photos or settings are free. Each MP4 starts at 11 credits. The 10 signup credits do not cover the 11-credit minimum. You can buy a one-time pack without a subscription. There is no free generated preview: changing the result means starting a new credit task after the previous one has ended.
Can I use a graduation video maker app on my phone?
The graduation video maker runs in a phone browser without an app installation. Choose 9:16 for a vertical recap, or 16:9 for a screen at a graduation party. Keep the original photos on your device, sign in to generate, and download the finished MP4. A short recap is suitable for sharing a few moments; it is not a complete ceremony recording.
Graduation video pricing & credits
The graduation video maker charges 13 credits (about $0.48 at the lowest monthly credit rate) for its default 10-second video. The smallest one-time pack costs $5 for 24 credits, enough for 1 default video. The table shows every model, length and resolution charge. Photo count, frame and style add no separate fee; dollar equivalents are usage estimates, not individual checkout prices.

What this graduation video maker cannot do
The graduation video maker recreates a short memory with AI and cannot guarantee unchanged faces, exact photo order, accurate diploma lettering or readable names and dates. It does not import ceremony recordings, upload your music, batch-name a class, or build a multi-minute slideshow. Keep gestures small and use clear photos; review the result before using it for a school event or sharing it with family.
For a traditional graduation slideshow, preserve the original photos in a timeline editor, set each photo’s duration and add a song you have permission to use. For a short animated memory from photos, use the generator above.
Graduation video questions
How many graduation photos should I upload?
Upload 1–4 photos in the order you want them to appear. One photo makes a single animated moment. For four moments, choose 15 seconds. The prompt requests this order, but the model can change it.
How can I reduce changes to the graduate’s face?
Use a sharp photo, a clear face and the Portrait style with small movements. Start with one person per photo. Mini uses only photos and text, without a reference video; if details drift, Seedance 2.5 costs 65 credits for 10 seconds at 480p, versus 13 for Mini. Neither guarantees an exact likeness.
Does this work as a graduation slideshow maker with names and dates?
You can generate a short moving graduation background, then add the exact invitation wording in an editor. This page does not render reliable name, school or date overlays. Check the spelling and hold the invitation card long enough to read before sending it.
Can I make high school and college graduation videos?
Yes. Use school memories, campus portraits or a cap-and-gown photo for a short personal recap. This is not a batch editor for an entire class. Get permission from everyone shown and use photos you have the right to upload, especially when students or children are in the pictures.
