What the explode effect does

This template makes the object in your photo pop like a party popper. It bursts into colorful confetti and paper streamers, disappears, and the confetti drifts down in slow motion. It is a playful, family-friendly take on the explode effect: no fire, no debris, just a cheerful burst.

Each run makes one 5-second 720p video with ByteDance Seedance 1.0 Pro image-to-video.

Photos that work best

Pick one clear object with some empty space around it: a plush toy, gift box, balloon, cake, figurine or a product you want to reveal. A plain or tidy background lets the confetti stand out.

Photos of people or pets are not supported by this template, and the effect stays deliberately non-violent.

Ideas to try

Burst a gift box for a birthday or gender-reveal post, pop a product to announce a sale, or explode a graduation cap into school-color confetti. Edit the prompt to change the burst: "bursts into gold glitter", "explodes into rose petals" or "pops into a cloud of pastel smoke".

What to expect

The object usually vanishes in the burst, but sometimes part of it remains under the confetti. Simple objects on clean backgrounds give the most dramatic pop. If a generation fails or is blocked by our content checks, its credits come back automatically.
