FAQ

What date is Lunar New Year 2027?

Saturday, February 6, 2027 (first day of the first lunar month). Lunar New Year’s Eve is Friday, February 5, and the Lantern Festival is February 20, 2027 (Hong Kong Observatory calendar).

Which zodiac animal is 2027?

The Goat (Fire Goat, 丁未). In English it is also called the Year of the Sheep or Ram. It follows the Year of the Horse (2026) and comes before the Year of the Monkey (2028).

Is the text on the video correct?

The video model is told not to write anything; “Happy Lunar New Year 2027” and “Year of the Goat” are added as typography on top. Small details such as a character printed on the red envelope can still appear, as in our sample. The title shows on the player and is burned into the MP4 you download in Chrome, Edge and Safari 17+.

Can I make it with my family or my pet?

One person, a couple in one photo (side by side, faces visible) or one pet all work. Bigger groups usually come out crowded.

Is there a free version?

No. Every video uses one credit; the pricing page lists the packs. If a video fails or times out, the credit is refunded automatically, and every paid video includes one free redo within 14 days.
