How to Make the Hello 2027 AI Video From One Photo
Updated Nov 1, 2026
Short answer: The Hello 2027 AI video (also called "Welcome 2027" or "climb the giant 2027") is a short vertical clip in which you climb onto giant white marble "2027" numbers on a mountaintop, spread your arms, and the camera pulls back over a sea of clouds. On New Year AI Video you make it from one photo: the result is a 10-second, vertical 9:16, 720×1280 MP4 with sound and no watermark, usually ready in about 2–3 minutes. There is also a "Goodbye 2026" version where you push the "6" off a cliff and a giant "7" lands in its place (Goodbye 2026 AI video).
What is the Hello 2027 AI video trend?
The idea is simple: instead of counting down to midnight, you climb into the new year. Because the only text on screen is the number itself, the clip works with a caption in any language.
Here is what happens in the generator's two main scenes, second by second (from the Hello 2027 page):
| Seconds | Climb the giant 2027 | Goodbye 2026 (push the 6) |
|---|---|---|
| 0–3 | You hang on the side of a marble "0", mountain wind, golden light | You stand next to a marble "2026" on a cliff edge |
| 3–7 | You pull yourself up, stand on top and spread your arms | You push the "6" over the edge into the clouds |
| 7–10 | A drone shot pulls back to reveal the whole "2027" | A giant "7" lands in the gap; the camera pulls back |
Where did the Hello 2027 trend come from?
Public trend write-ups describe the format as surfacing in short-video feeds in late October 2026, with early posts captioned in Spanish and English and a French-language "goodbye 2026, welcome 2027" variant where the 6 is pushed off a cliff. It follows a similar giant-numbers idea that circulated the year before for 2026. We have not independently verified view counts or who posted first, so we don't repeat those numbers here.
How do I make it in 3 steps?
- Upload one photo. Open the Hello 2027 AI video generator and upload a JPG, PNG or WEBP (max 10 MB) of you, the two of you side by side, or your pet.
- Pick a scene. "Climb the giant 2027" is the default. You can also choose "Goodbye 2026" (push the 6 off), rooftop fireworks, golden confetti or a snowy town square.
- Sign up and generate. Sign-up is free with an email (no card). Each HD video uses one credit; see pricing. Wait about 2–3 minutes, then download the 9:16 MP4 and post it.
Why do the numbers actually read 2027?
Video models are bad at writing: ask one to "show 2027" and the digits can melt into 2072 by the last second. This generator works in two stages. An image model first paints a still start frame with your face on the climber and "2027" spelled in solid marble; then a video model animates that frame. Because the digits exist in frame one, the camera move keeps them readable.
What photo works best?
Your photo decides most of the result. These tips come straight from the upload guidance on the site and from how the start frame is built:
- Face forward and visible. One person (or a couple) looking roughly at the camera.
- Good, even light. Daylight near a window beats a dark restaurant shot.
- Half-body or closer. You should fill a good part of the frame; a tiny figure in a wide landscape gives the model little to work with.
- Sharp focus. Blurry or heavily filtered photos lose the face in the start frame.
- Two people max. Couples work when both faces are visible side by side. Groups bigger than two usually come out crowded, so crop to two.
- Pets: one animal, both eyes visible. See the New Year pet video guide for dog and cat tips.
Can I make it without an editing-app template?
Yes. You don't need a template, a prompt, or editing skills: you upload a photo and the scene, the climb and the camera move are already built in.
CapCut Hello 2027 template not showing?
Many people first look for a Hello 2027 template inside a phone video editor such as CapCut. Templates can be hard to find, change by region, or disappear from search. If that happens, the generator above is a separate route: it is a web tool, so it runs in a phone or desktop browser and gives you a finished 10-second MP4 you can upload anywhere.
Which version should I post?
- Climb the giant 2027 reads instantly as "I made it to 2027" and suits resolution, travel or fitness posts.
- Goodbye 2026 (push the 6) is the funnier one, good for "this year was a lot" captions.
- Fireworks, confetti and snowy town are classic midnight scenes if you want something calmer.
