Make your company's holiday greeting video in one conversation
Holiday e-cards all look the same, and most get deleted unopened. A 20 to 40-second animated greeting with your logo, your colors and a message that's actually about your year gets watched, shared and remembered. With ManyMotion, you describe the tone and the message in the chat, and the AI builds the animation, the voice-over, a soundtrack composed for the occasion and the sound effects. Tweak it by chatting, then export an MP4.

Why ManyMotion
Done before the holiday rush
No chasing a designer in mid-December. One description gets you a first version, and a few sentences get you the final one.
On-brand, not generic
Upload your logo and photos: the AI uses your colors, shows your team or your work, and closes on a logo reveal.
Music nobody else has
Skip the jingles everyone has heard a thousand times. Every video gets an original, royalty-free score timed to the animation.
One version per audience
Clients, staff, partners: change the message or tone in a single sentence. Each edit costs 5 credits.
Every channel covered
16:9 for email and your website, 1:1 for LinkedIn, 9:16 for stories and WhatsApp Status. Switching formats takes one request.
How it works
01
Describe your video
In one or two sentences: your topic, your offer, the tone you want and the format.
02
The AI animates it
Animation, voice-over, original music and sound effects, all in sync, in about a minute.
03
Tweak and export
Ask for changes by chatting, then download an MP4 that is ready to post.
A 30-second holiday video structure that works
A good greeting video doesn't sell anything. It says thank you, recalls something you went through together and looks ahead. Here's a breakdown that fits most businesses:
- 0–4 s: the opener. An animated title or a line that lands: "2026 was built with you."
- 4–15 s: your year at a glance. Two or three animated stats, a standout project, a team photo.
- 15–24 s: the thank-you. A genuine message to clients, partners or staff, carried by the voice-over.
- 24–30 s: the wishes and your logo. "Happy Holidays and a great 2027," then a logo reveal on the final note.
Write a message that stands out from the pile
"Wishing you a joyful holiday season" is a line your clients will read fifty times in December. Make yours specific to what your company actually did this year:
- Your year in numbers: customers served, projects shipped, meals cooked. An animated infographic turns a recap into something people want to share.
- Behind the scenes: a photo of the team, the workshop or the site. Clients finally see the people behind the logo.
- A targeted thank-you: "Thank you to the 300 families who trusted us with their move" beats a blanket thanks.
- A promise for next year: a new location, a new service, a commitment. Your greeting becomes a teaser.
Let the AI draft the script or paste your own. Keep sentences short and read them out loud before you approve them; our guide on how to write a voiceover script walks you through it.
Match the greeting to the audience and the channel
One base video can become several. Ask for a version per audience, then switch the format for each channel:
| Audience | Channel | Format | Suggested length |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clients and prospects | Email, website homepage | 16:9 | 20–30 s |
| Professional network | LinkedIn post | 1:1 | 15–25 s |
| Local customers | WhatsApp Status, stories | 9:16 | 15–20 s |
| Employees | All-hands, intranet | 16:9 | 30–45 s |
For the post, see our tips for a LinkedIn video. The staff version can go deeper into the year's results, like an internal communications video, and a short logo animation makes a clean closing shot for every cut.
Timing and mistakes to avoid
- Starting on December 23: build your video in early December so it goes out before offices close, or in the first week of January when inboxes are quiet.
- Assuming everyone celebrates Christmas: for international clients, "Season's Greetings" or a New Year message is the safer choice. Diwali, Lunar New Year or Eid greetings work great when they match your audience.
- Running too long: past 45 seconds, attention drops. One strong message beats a full year-in-review.
- Skipping the proofread: a typo in a client's name or the wrong year is instantly visible. Check every line on screen before you export.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a holiday greeting video cost?
+
One credit equals 1 second of video, so a 30-second greeting uses 30 credits, voice-over and music included. The 60 free credits you get at sign-up let you try it, with a watermark. For watermark-free videos, the Starter plan is $12 per month (see pricing).
Can I include a photo of my team?
+
Yes. Upload team photos, your logo or pictures of your work: the AI places them in the scenes, full screen or in a frame, and can zoom in on a detail.
How do I send the video by email?
+
Export the MP4, then share it the way you usually do: a link to your website or video platform, or a clickable thumbnail in your email. The 16:9 format works best for this.
Is the music royalty-free?
+
Yes. Every video gets an original soundtrack composed for it, royalty-free, so you can post your greeting on any channel without copyright claims.
Can I make a bilingual greeting?
+
The voice-over follows the language of your request, in English or French. For bilingual clients, for example in Canada, create one version in each language.
