What this action does
Sydney Opera House landmark selfie. You give the app a single photograph and it generates a short clip of that movement, roughly 5 seconds long. Nothing is filmed and nothing is recovered: the motion is produced from the one frame you supply.
What photo works best
Head and shoulders at arm length, front on, in daylight. The harbour and the Opera House are built behind you, so an uncluttered original background gives the cleanest composite. Sunglasses hide the eyes, which is the main thing the animation has to work with, so take them off.
What to expect
One photograph goes in and a short clip comes out. It is generated rather than filmed, so run it twice if the first attempt puts a hand somewhere strange; the second version will not be identical.
If the result is not convincing, the fix is almost always the photograph rather than the settings. Reshoot it wider, get more light on the face, and move the arms clear of the body. The rest of what decides the result applies to every action here, and the limits apply to this one too.
