Which Photo Works Best for Your Burning Bridges AI Video
Simple rules for the photo you upload: one person, a clear face, head to waist in frame and even light. Here is why each one matters.
Your photo is the only thing the AI knows about you. It has to rebuild your face from new angles, dress you in the same clothes and move you through 16 seconds of dancing, so a good photo makes the biggest difference to how much the video looks like you.
One person only
Use a photo with just you in it. With a group shot, the AI has to guess who should take the lead, and it may pick the wrong person or mix faces together. The crowd in the video comes from the original clip, so you don't need friends in the photo.
Your face, clearly visible
Face the camera, or turn only slightly. Take off sunglasses and keep hair, hands and hats away from your face. Skip beauty filters and heavy edits: the AI copies what it sees, including the filter.
Head to waist in frame
A photo that shows you from the head down to the waist works best. It shows your face, your hair and the top you are wearing, which is most of what the video shows. A full-body photo works too. A tight selfie of just your face leaves the AI to invent your clothes.
Even, bright light
Daylight or a well-lit room gives the AI the most detail. Avoid strong backlight, deep shadows across your face and very dark photos.
Wear what you want to be seen in
The video keeps your clothing from the photo. You don't need a party outfit or a cup: the video puts the silver cup from the original clip in your hand.
Size and format
Use a JPG or PNG photo, at least 341 pixels on each side and under 10 MB. Portrait and square photos work best.
Only adults who agreed
Use photos of yourself, or of adults who have agreed to appear in an AI video. Never upload photos of children, celebrities or anyone who hasn't agreed.
