vidstickerCustom animated Slack emoji from a video or GIF
Upload a video, a GIF or a photo — or paste a link to a clip. AI removes the background, you add an outline or text, and get an emoji that fits Slack's limits: just add it to your workspace.
From a link we take up to 3 minutes of the video, starting at the moment you set next to it. For personal use only — the rights stay with the video's author.

🎭 Bring a photo to life
Copycat — the face in your photo copies the expressions from your video. Emotion pack — 20 stickers where the face laughs, winks, falls in love.
By uploading a video you agree that we keep it and the finished stickers for up to 7 days to improve the service, then delete them (sooner on request to support@vidsticker.com). Visits are counted by Yandex Metrica (cookies and a recording of actions on the page, without uploaded videos).
This is a Live Photo — the browser only passed the still, so the sticker won't move. To make it move, send the Live Photo to the bot — in Telegram it stays live — and open it in the editor with “✏️ Open in editor”. Or save it as a video: Photos → “…” → “Save as Video” — and upload the clip.
Move and resize the circle — that's the frame of the round video. Up to a minute, with sound; the bot sends the finished round video to your chat, and you can forward it from there.
The subject sits on a color or gradient in the sticker's shape — pick a circle, rounded or square shape on the “Frame” tab. You'll see it on the finished sticker.
Changes the subject's colors; the backdrop, outline and text stay as they are. You'll see it on the finished sticker.
Follows the subject's edge when the background is removed, or the sticker's shape. You'll see it on the finished sticker.

What video works: a close-up face looking at the camera, with the eyes, brows and mouth doing the moving — then the expressions transfer cleanly. If the head turns a lot, nods, tilts back or moves toward the camera, the face in the photo will warp and you'll get something wild. We soften strong turns and zooms, but not all the way.
Only animate your own face or the face of someone who agrees.
Frame, background, shape and outline are taken from your choices above. It takes 2–4 minutes, and the pack will appear in your Telegram.
Whoever gets your sticker can open its whole pack — keep personal stickers in a separate one.
Not allowed: 18+, violence, extremism or other people's private videos — rules
