Overview

Create a short video on Pollo AI that tells a story, showcases a product, or captures a moment. We recommend using Image 2 on Pollo to generate your key visuals, then bringing them to life with Seedance 2.0 to create fluid, dynamic animated content. You may also use other models, tools, or agent-based workflows available on the Pollo platform. Whether you're an individual creator, a business owner, or a team, this challenge invites you to transform an idea, image, or vision into a compelling short video—no professional animation experience needed.


Theme Direction

Create a compelling short video (15 sec–2 min) that tells a story with strong narrative and visual impact.

Your story could feature:

  1. Game characters, scenes, or worlds brought to animated life
  2. Original characters, moments, or scenes with narrative depth
  3. Brand stories, product journeys, or commercial narratives

The focus is on storytelling—whether it's an adventure, a product reveal, a character moment, or a brand mission. Use Image 2 to create your visuals, Seedance 2.0 to animate them, or other Pollo tools to bring your narrative to life. Whether your "protagonist" is a game hero, a brand product, or an original character, use Pollo AI to bring their story to life through cinematic motion.
