Create 3D animations with our easy-to-use and free tool. Our tool lets you upload a OBJ (Wavefront) 3D model file, and from this, create an animated MP4 (MPEG-4) file that you can then download and share without the need for any complex 3D modeling software.
Our OBJ to MP4 animation tool includes options to adjust the camera position within the 3D world, set the resolution of the generated MP4 file, and, if your OBJ file contains any animations, allow you to set the animation to play. To get started, please click the Upload button and select your OBJ file.
Here are three simple steps to create an MP4 file from a OBJ file.
Extension | OBJ |

The OBJ file format, originally created by Wavefront Technologies and later adopted by many other 3D software vendors, is a simple text-based file format for describing 3D models/geometry. This data can include vertices, faces, normals, texture coordinates, and references to external texture files.
As the format is text-based, it is relatively straightforward to parse in 3D modeling applications. A downside of the text-based format is that the files can be rather large compared to similar binary formats such as STL and compressed files such as 3MF.
If your OBJ file is uploaded with accompanying MTL and texture files, these will be applied to the conversion process.
Extension | MP4 |
Full Name | MPEG-4 |
Type | Video |
Mime Type | video/mp4 |
Format | Binary |
Tools | MP4 Converters |
The MP4 video format is a standard format for video encoding and storage. In order to minimize file sizes, the format employs a lossy compression method that reduces the amount of data needed to store the video content without any noticeable loss in quality.
Due to its small size and efficient compression methods, the MP4 format is ideally suited for online video streaming. The MP4 format may use a variety of CODECs, which are usually supported by most MP4 players, with additional CODECs downloadable if needed.
If your OBJ file has separate material (MTL) and texture (PNG, JPG, etc.) files, you can drag and drop these onto the upload tool along with the main OBJ file. Our tool will intelligently detect which of these additional files belongs to the OBJ file. Alternatively, you can place these additional files, along with the OBJ file, within a ZIP or other compressed archive file and upload that.
We aim to process all OBJ to MP4 conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds but can be more for larger more complex files so please be patient.
We aim to create the most accurate conversions with our tools. Our tools are under constant development with new features and improvements being added every week.
Yes, of course! We do not store the OBJ file you submit to us. The resulting MP4 file, once created is deleted 15 minutes after upload and the download link will expire after this time.
No. All our conversion tools process your OBJ file on our dedicated conversion servers, meaning you can use our tools on low-spec computers, laptops, tablets, and mobile devices and receive your converted MP4 file quickly.
Yes! Our OBJ to MP4 tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.
Yes. Although you can use an Ad Blocker, if you like our OBJ conversion tool please consider white-listing our site. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits on some of our tools and processing/conversion times will be longer.
Yes. When you have converted your OBJ to MP4, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
