Export your finished Sketchup architectural or interior design render as a standard high-res JPG or PNG file, then upload it directly to the tool with no pre-editing required.
Customize motion and pacing settings
Select your preferred camera movement type (slow pan, orbit, or first-person walkthrough), adjust playback speed, and set your desired video length between 5 and 30 seconds.
Generate and export your final video
Let the AI process your render to add natural spatial depth and smooth motion, then download the final MP4 file ready for presentations, portfolios, or client sharing.
Complete Guide to Converting Sketchup Renders to Professional Videos
This guide walks you through best practices for getting the highest quality results from the PromeAI Sketchup to Video tool, plus guidance on when to use this feature vs other image to video tools for your design workflow.
Best Practices for Preparing Your Sketchup Render for Conversion
Start by exporting your Sketchup render at a minimum resolution of 1920x1080 for crisp final video output. Turn off any temporary guide layers, dimension markers, or construction lines before exporting to avoid distracting elements in your final video. If you want to highlight specific design details, you can add subtle callouts or annotations to your render before upload, as the AI will preserve these elements in the final video. Avoid heavily compressed or low-resolution renders, as these will result in blurry or pixelated motion when converted to video.
How to Choose the Right Camera Motion Setting for Your Use Case
For exterior building designs, opt for a slow horizontal pan or orbit motion to showcase the full facade and surrounding landscaping. For interior designs, use a first-person forward walkthrough motion to help viewers understand the spatial flow between rooms. For small product or fixture details within a larger Sketchup design, use a slow zoom motion to highlight specific material finishes or custom design elements. For social media marketing use cases, choose a faster pacing and shorter 5 to 10 second length to hold viewer attention, while client review presentations work best with slower pacing and 20 to 30 second length to allow for detailed discussion.
When to Use Sketchup to Video vs Other PromeAI Image to Video Tools
Use the Sketchup to Video feature if your source image is a 2D render exported directly from Sketchup, as it is optimized to preserve architectural geometry and avoid distortion common with generic image to video tools. This tool is also the best choice if you need pre-built cinematic camera motion presets tailored specifically for architectural and interior design presentations. If your source image is a photograph of a finished property rather than a Sketchup render, use the Real Estate Photo to Video tool instead, as it is optimized for photographic lighting and texture. If you are working with a 3D render from a tool other than Sketchup, use the Architecture Render to Video feature for the best results. Avoid using the generic Image to Video function for Sketchup renders, as it does not include the geometry-preservation logic that prevents distorted edges and unnatural motion in your final video.
How to Optimize Your Final Video for Different Distribution Channels
For client presentations via Zoom or in-person meeting software, export your video in MP4 format at 1080p resolution and 30fps for smooth playback. For embedding on your portfolio website, export a compressed MP4 file under 10MB to ensure fast load times for visitors. For Instagram or TikTok marketing, export a 9:16 vertical crop of your video, and choose a shorter 5 to 10 second length with snappier pacing to align with social media user behavior. For email sharing with stakeholders, export a GIF version of your video for easy inline playback without requiring recipients to download large files.
