How to Choose a Photo for Your POPSTAR AI Video
Use one clear photo of one person. The face, hair, and outfit are what the mansion walk keeps.
The hallway, camera, and champagne bottle come from a fixed reference. Your photo is the only thing that decides who the lead is. A usable photo makes that lead easier to keep consistent for the full 10 seconds.
Use one person, seen clearly
Pick a front-facing photo of one real person. Keep the face, hair, and outfit in the frame. The generator is trying to preserve those three things while the person walks toward the camera. A tight crop of only the eyes, or a photo where the outfit is cut off, gives the model less to follow.
Even light is more useful than a heavy filter. Sunglasses, a hand over the face, or a strong blur make the lead harder to hold from the first step to the last.
Stay inside the file limits
JPG, PNG, and WebP are accepted. The file must be 10 MB or smaller, at least 300 pixels on the shorter side, and between a 2:5 and 5:2 aspect ratio. The studio checks the file in your browser and prepares a JPEG before upload. You can replace the photo before you start the video.
Skip photos this template is not built for
Group photos, pets, cartoons, and celebrity pictures are a poor fit. The template is one lead, distinct from anyone in the background. Use a photo you have permission to process. Do not upload someone else's likeness to impersonate them.
The download is a silent 9:16 MP4. The photo does not add music. Add the POPSTAR sound when you post, and check the platform's rules for AI-labeled video and music before you share it.
When the photo is ready, follow how to make the video or open the studio. Generated examples show the hallway scene; they are not a promise that every photo will match those frames.
