Engine Dive at a glance

Engine Dive is a ready-made AI Video template on TalkPix. You roll a perfect miniature of your car at the lens, the camera dives into its grille, races through the tiny engine and swoops out around it. You add 2 to 3 photos; the template supplies the scene, the camera moves and the sound. The result is a 10-second vertical (9:16) video with sound, made by Seedance 2.5, for 90 credits at 480p, 195 at 720p.

What happens in the video

You sit behind a wooden desk with a perfect miniature of your car and give it a gentle push toward the camera. As it rolls closer, the view dives straight into its grille and races through a glossy, spinning engine world in your car's own colour, ending in a burst of sparks as the parts lock together. Then it swoops back out, circling the tiny car on the desk for a final hero shot with you in the background, all in 10 seconds.

The Engine Dive video is vertical (9:16), the format TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts use, so the file posts without cropping.
