What this action does

Taking selfie with beautiful scenery. 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

A phone selfie is exactly right here: head and shoulders, arm length, front on, daylight on the face. The landscape behind you is generated, so an uncluttered original background sits into the new one more cleanly than a detailed indoor room.

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.

Common questions

What kind of photo works best for Scenery Selfie?
A phone selfie is exactly right here: head and shoulders, arm length, front on, daylight on the face. The landscape behind you is generated, so an uncluttered original background sits into the new one more cleanly than a detailed indoor room.
How long is the video?
About 5 seconds. That is what the default model in the app's catalogue is configured to produce, and it is the same for every action in the library.
Do I need a subscription to use Scenery Selfie?
No. Scenery Selfie is not a subscription only action. AI Video is free to download and includes two videos a day at no cost; beyond that you need credits or a Pro subscription.

The right action for the photo beats the popular one

Every action in the library is written up the same way, so you can check whether the picture in your camera roll actually suits it before you spend a credit.
