About this effect

What happens
in your video.

Wearing a warm coat and scarf on an autumn avenue, you hold a thick parade rope and glance upward with a curious frown. The camera tilts up along the rope to reveal a huge glossy balloon with a cartoon version of your face and hairstyle. It slowly winks; the camera returns to you as you do a double take, laugh and point up at the balloon.

The parade star turns out to be you, and its wink makes the surprise even more personal. Send it to friends who love Thanksgiving parades or give your family chat a larger than life holiday entrance.

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 and hairstyle visible. Facial likeness, the cartoon balloon and camera movement 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 hairstyle easy to see. The effect adds the coat, scarf, autumn avenue and cartoon balloon.

What happens in the video?

The camera follows a parade rope upward to a giant cartoon balloon of the person. The balloon winks, then the camera tilts back down to their surprised laugh and pointing gesture.

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?

An 8 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.
