How to Make a Solo Burning Bridges AI Video in 2026

Creating a solo Burning Bridges AI video involves using a single adult portrait and optionally one guest portrait to generate a short, original silent video with a clear creative theme. This process uses an independent photo-to-video tool powered by ByteDance Seedance 2.0 via Kie AI. The result is a 10-second, 720p vertical MP4 video that visually narrates a story without copyrighted music or celebrity likenesses.

Understanding the Basics: What You Need

To make a solo Burning Bridges AI video, you need:

• One adult portrait photo (JPG, PNG, or WebP format, under 10 MB)
• Optionally, one guest portrait photo (same format and size limits)
• A clear creative direction or concept for the video
• An account with at least 50 credits to generate the video

The tool generates a silent video lasting 10 seconds in 9:16 aspect ratio, suitable for social media stories or reels.
