How do I make an I Want Wings Glow Up video?
By MimicZip Team · Updated:
Short answer
Upload one photo of an adult, pick the after look, the transition and the place, and MimicZip builds the scene: the tired selfie, the butterflies and the glow up. Check a 5-second bonus preview, then spend 1 credit on the 6-second 720p video.
A glow up, on purpose
- Open the template page. Use one sharp photo of an adult, whole body or from the waist up, looking at the camera. JPG, PNG or WebP, up to 10 MB.
- Pick the after look (Everyday by default), the transition (Butterflies by default) and the place (Overcast street by default). None of them changes the price.
- Video shape: the video is vertical 9:16, made for TikTok, Reels and Shorts.
- Consent and sign-in. Tick the photo-consent box and log in with Google. Previews arrive inside a pack, so take one if you have no credits.
- Look at the preview. It is watch-only, 5 seconds at 480p, marked PREVIEW. Check the same face in both looks and the light getting better.
- Render: 1 credit gives the 6-second 720p MP4 with no watermark, saved in My videos. Add your sound in TikTok.
The tired selfie, the butterflies, the glow up
The tired selfie (0 to 1.6 seconds), the butterflies (1.6 to 3.7) and the glow up (3.7 to 6).
The hardest part for the AI is keeping one face across two very different lights, dim and bright, with a black screen in between. A small shift in the face, a hoodie that changes colour or butterflies that blur is normal, not a failed render. Treat it as a short, upbeat clip to watch.
Where it comes from
Download the MP4 or copy a share link from My videos. Our video follows the part of the TikTok from 4 November 2026 that runs from the end of the tired selfie, through the butterflies, to the first two well-lit selfies, without the pasted pictures, stretched slightly to 6 seconds. The sound guide explains how to add yours.

Can I close the page while it renders?
Yes. Rendering carries on at our end, and the finished video is saved under your account in My videos.
Which format does the video come in?
Vertical 9:16, made for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. The bonus preview uses the same shape.
