Happy Birthday! Recommended birthday videos. Idea collection (11–20)
Happy Birthday By Hilary Grist
Set to stylish acoustic Western music, this birthday video features adorable watercolor illustrations.
The artwork isn’t a still image; the drawing process itself is captured on film.
Because it plays like a time-lapse of the piece coming together, it never gets boring, and the anticipation of “What will they draw next?” is delightful.
The handwritten words and birthday cake feel especially heartwarming.
If you’re looking for a handmade, gentle-feeling video, this is a perfect pick.
Mickey & Minnie’s Birthday
This is a video of Mickey Mouse celebrating Minnie Mouse’s birthday with all his heart! He rents out the venue, gifts her a birthday song with his own drum performance, and hands her a bouquet—surprise after surprise that any woman would love.
While the video itself features Mickey and Minnie’s birthdays, how about sending this video first, then giving her a bouquet just like Mickey does? If your girlfriend loves Disney, she’ll probably be thrilled!
Dance movie
A classic choice for entertainment or a performance is a dance.
How about brightening a video celebrating your friend’s birthday with a dance? There are plenty of dance tracks to choose from—songs by the recipient’s favorite artists or birthday tunes.
Pick a hype song and give it a try.
Even if you’re not great at dancing, it’s not scary when everyone dances together, right? Don’t just dance—edit in a short message as well.
It’ll surely become a wonderful memory for both the giver and the receiver.
Toy Story 3 Birthday Surprise Movie
The appeal is that it features the familiar characters from the Toy Story series all together.
It also includes Japanese subtitles, making it easy to understand.
The way the toys put their heads together and work hard to celebrate a birthday is really cute, isn’t it?
Happy Birthday song animation ever
This video is recommended for people who have birthdays in winter or whose birthday falls on Christmas Day.
A stick figure drawn with a pen pops out of the paper to go skiing, climbs up to the moon to fetch stars, and more—a slightly whimsical yet dreamy story unfolds.
Many children probably share the wish to climb to the moon or grab a star, so it’s also great as a birthday video for kids.
Watching this heartwarming birthday video against a fantastical snowy backdrop will likely bring a little chuckle and leave you feeling very happy.
Cute celebration videos of animals
Cute animals are loved by women, of course, but they actually have lots of male fans too.
For someone who loves animals, how about this birthday video? The relaxed illustration of a bunny wearing a “Star of the Day” sash over its face is adorable, and the dog, cat, and guinea pig that look like they’re joining the birthday party are truly cute! Plus, the video includes a heartfelt birthday message that really hits home, so I highly recommend it.
It’s a jam-packed video that delivers both birthday wishes and soothing vibes.
Minions Sing Happy Birthday
Minions are cute characters who live to serve the strongest and most terrible masters, scurrying around in their small, yellow bodies.
Not just children—some men, too—find themselves knocked out by their cuteness.
In the movies where the Minions appear, they often sing, and their uniquely indescribable voices are absolutely adorable.
This birthday song is no exception—it’s irresistibly cute and sure to lift your spirits if you receive it.
The Minion blowing a toy paper party horn is also a chuckle-worthy, delightful touch.
greeting card video
A greeting card is a card you send to someone close to you for annual occasions like Christmas or New Year, as well as birthdays, to express feelings such as gratitude.
These days, we don’t send letters or cards by mail as often, do we? This video lets you experience a bit of that good old culture of sending cards.
The background birthday song evokes an American home party—it feels like various people are singing together in a lively, bustling room.
It has a warm, homey vibe that I think will leave you feeling cozy and content!
Birthday Card – Heart Ver.
Recommended for sending to women! This birthday video uses heart-themed motion graphics and images.
You’ll see various heart versions, like heart-shaped clouds and hearts made with hands.
If you’re a guy with a girlfriend who loves hearts, why not give it a try? Right after the countdown, a birthday cake appears, so it’s immediately clear that it’s a celebration—which is nice.
It’s short, so it could also work as the opening for your own original birthday video!
Just Dance 2020 Kids
When it comes to birthday fun, presents are a highlight, but indulging in fancier-than-usual food is exciting too.
And we mustn’t forget the birthday cake.
In this birthday video, the cake takes center stage.
Set to the familiar birthday song, the cake just keeps dancing and dancing—giving it a delightfully absurd vibe.
Why not send it to someone who enjoys quirky, funny things? Little kids might also love this kind of simple, repeated dance.
