About AI cat video on Cicadas

The AI cat video generator takes one photo of a cat and draws a short clip of that cat in a new scene: flipping a pancake in a chef's hat, riding a skateboard down the street, or typing on a laptop in glasses and a tie. Cicadas makes it with MiniMax H3 Max: vertical, 5, 10 or 15 seconds, with sound. Use your own cat, or the sample cat on this page if you have no photo at hand; because every clip starts from the same photo, the same cat appears in each one. Scenes are editable, so you can write your own. A 5-second clip is 63 credits.

The pancake goes up, and lands.

MiniMax H3 Max, 5 seconds with sound, vertical, from one photo of a cat; back in 37 seconds. A grey tabby in a small chef's hat stands on a stool at a kitchen counter, holds a frying pan in its front paws and flips a pancake, which lands back in the pan; then it looks at the camera. The coat, the white chest and the green eyes follow the photo. The camera stays still, in one shot. The sound is clinking dishes and a meow rather than the sizzling pan the prompt asked for.

Down the street on a skateboard.

MiniMax H3 Max, 5 seconds with sound, vertical, from the same photo of a cat; back in 35 seconds. The tabby stands on a skateboard with all four paws and rolls along a quiet street toward the camera in low, warm sun, its tail up, while the camera backs away in front of it. The coat and the white chest follow the photo. The sound is rolling wheels with a short squeak; one of the two listeners described it as growling.

Typing, then a look over the glasses.

MiniMax H3 Max, 5 seconds with sound, vertical, from the same photo of a cat; back in 37 seconds. The tabby sits at a desk by a window in small round glasses and a striped tie, types on a laptop with its front paws, then lifts its head and looks at the camera. The coat, the white chest and the green eyes follow the photo. The camera stays still, in one shot. The sound is quick keyboard clicks, with no speech or music.

Why use Cicadas for AI cat video

The cat in the clip is the cat in the photo

The photo tells the model which cat to draw: coat, markings and eye colour. In our three recorded clips the grey tabby with the white chest and green eyes from the sample photo appears in a kitchen, on a street and at a desk. The photo is not animated itself: the model draws a new scene around the same cat.

Three scenes to start from: chef, skateboard, office

The chef flips a pancake that lands back in the pan. The skateboarder rolls toward the camera in low sun. The office cat types, then looks up over its glasses. Each scene fills an editable prompt: change the place, the outfit or the action, and keep "the cat from Image 1".

AI cat video prompt ideas

Copy one into the prompt box above and adapt it to your shot. Or write your own shot by shot in the prompt generator.

  • “A bright home kitchen in morning light, vertical. The cat from Image 1 stands on its hind legs on a stool at the counter in a tiny white chef's hat, holds a small frying pan in its front paws and flips a pancake, which lands back in the pan. Then it looks at the camera, pleased with itself. Keep the coat, markings, eye colour and size exactly as in the photo. The camera stays still, one continuous shot, no cuts. Sound: a sizzling pan and one soft meow, no music, no voices. No people, no text.”

  • “A quiet street on a sunny afternoon, vertical. The cat from Image 1 stands on a small skateboard with all four paws and rolls smoothly along the pavement toward the camera, fur ruffling in the wind, then leans into a gentle turn. Keep the coat, markings, eye colour and size exactly as in the photo. The camera stays low and moves back slowly, one continuous shot, no cuts. Sound: skateboard wheels on the pavement and a light breeze, no music, no voices. No people, no text.”

  • “A tidy desk by an office window, vertical. The cat from Image 1 sits upright in an office chair wearing small round glasses and a loose tie, types on a laptop with its front paws, then stops and looks up at the camera over its glasses with a serious face. Keep the coat, markings, eye colour and size exactly as in the photo. The camera stays still, one continuous shot, no cuts. Sound: quick keyboard clicks and a quiet office hum, no music, no voices. No people, no text.”

Chef: back in 37 seconds; the cat stands on a stool in a chef's hat and flips a pancake that lands back in the pan. Skateboard: 35 seconds; it rolls toward the camera on a street in low sun. Office: 37 seconds; round glasses and a striped tie, typing, then a look up at the camera. The coat, the white chest and the green eyes followed the photo in all three.
