About this effect

What happens
in your video.

Beside a glowing Christmas tree, you unroll a parchment scroll with a red wax seal and gold ribbon. Your suspicious squint turns to wide eyes as you scan down the page, then you cover your mouth in happy shock. You look into the camera with a delighted laugh, point at the scroll and then at yourself while golden sparkles and snowflakes drift down.

The surprise is how pleased you are to have made the nice list. Share the proud little reveal with the friend who doubts your good behavior or send it to the family chat as your Christmas case for a present.

The sample features an AI generated fictional adult woman. Upload one clear front facing or half body photo of a consenting adult with their face visible. Facial likeness, scroll details, hand gestures and reactions can vary in your result.

Good to know

A little clarity
before you create.

Which photo should I use?

Use one clear front facing or half body photo of one consenting adult with their face and upper body visible. The effect adds the parchment scroll and Christmas setting.

What happens in the video?

The person unrolls a scroll, reads it with a skeptical look and reacts with happy shock. They laugh at the camera and proudly point from the scroll to themselves as sparkles fall.

Can I keep my video private?

Yes. Your creation is private by default and appears on the public inspiration wall only if you choose to share it. Keep the optional public sharing box unchecked to keep it private.

What do I receive, and how much does it cost?

A 6 second vertical 720p MP4 with generated audio. Each generation uses 10 credits. Try one photo as a free watermarked preview. Unlock the same HD video with the watermark removed for 10 credits. Likeness, motion and final duration can vary.
