AI Crush video effect: how to make it
The AI crush effect shows a hydraulic press or a pair of hands flattening an object. In KreatorFlow you start from a photo of the object as the first frame in the video studio, describe the press lowering and the object squashing flat, and generate a 5-second clip on Seedance 2.5.

Open the video studio and add your photo
Pick Seedance 2.5, set 5 seconds and add your photo as the first frame. A first-frame clip keeps the photo's own shape, so crop the photo to 9:16 first for a vertical clip.

Describe the effect
Describe what crushes it (a press, two hands), how slowly, and the final flat shape. Satisfying slow motion is the key phrase. Start from the example prompt below and change the details.

AI Crush prompt
Vertical 9:16 clip, 5 seconds. A bright yellow rubber duck sits centred on a steel plate under a hydraulic press. The press lowers slowly and flattens the duck into a perfect flat disc, rubber bulging out at the sides. Industrial workshop light, macro close-up, satisfying slow motion, static camera.
