Try Mockly FreeWhat Mockup.photos does well
Its photo-realistic scenes — real hands, real desks, real lighting — can look more lifelike than a rendered device frame, which matters for certain premium marketing photography needs.
Where Mockly is a better fit
Mockly doesn't require compositing layers in a separate photo editor — everything happens in one browser tab, and the output is a ready-to-publish MP4, not a layered file that still needs assembly.
Which one should you use
For premium, photo-realistic static marketing imagery, a compositing-based tool like Mockup.photos can achieve a specific look Mockly doesn't attempt. For a fast, finished animated video without a photo editor in the loop, Mockly is the more direct path.
Frequently asked questions
No. Mockly's entire editor and export pipeline runs in the browser — no external photo editor or compositing step required.
Mockly's device frames are clean, rendered device outlines rather than photo-realistic scenes, plus one pre-built scene template (a hand holding a phone) for that specific look.
Mockly is generally faster end-to-end since there's no separate compositing step — upload, configure, and export all happen in the same editor.
