- Video with sound
PetCostumeAI's Santa doorbell camera video turns one photo of your dog or cat into an 8-second clip that looks like night footage from a home doorbell camera: your pet waits on a snowy porch, Santa Claus walks up the steps, pats its head and leaves a wrapped present for it to sniff. The fisheye view stays fixed. The video has porch sounds and no music, comes in vertical or square, and costs 480–1,280 credits by quality.
Image effects create still pictures. Effect videos come with AI-generated sound effects that match the scene, without background music.

It is a new video generated in a doorbell-camera style, not a filter on your own camera footage, so you can make it without any camera at home.
