The honest bit
What to know before you generate
- Likeness needs a clear photo. A well-lit, front-facing, single-subject shot gives the best face match for the lead.
- It follows the reference. The camera, pacing and motion come from the trend's reference clip — your photo becomes the still lead.
- Each run varies. Exact framing and timing shift a little between runs — regenerate for a different take.
- Use photos you own. Only upload photos you have the right to use and share.
