Digital image animation techniques are described. In one example, animations are used for a single digital image to permit movement or other effects to be exhibited as part of the digital image without requiring multiple frames as in conventional techniques. Transformation of the single digital image by the animations may also be coordinated, such as to synchronize or not synchronize movement of objects to promote realism. In another example, portions and even an entirety of these techniques may be performed automatically and without user intervention. Machine learning, for instance, may be employed using a neural network to classify the digital image into one or more semantic classes. The semantic classes may then be used to recommend animations to transform the digital image.
