Why 3d camera pan suits AI video

A moving camera makes a flat photo feel like a place. Foreground and background shift against each other, which gives the depth viewers associate with a real shot. It is the most popular way to add life to a photo without changing what is in it.

What to put in your photo

  • Photos with clear layers: something near, something in the middle, something far
  • A horizon or strong lines that guide the eye along the pan
  • Sharp focus across the frame, rather than a heavily blurred background

An example you can adapt

Example photo: A cobbled street with a lamp in the foreground and a church tower in the distance.

Sound and camera

  • Pan left or pan right for streets and landscapes; orbit for a single object
  • Match the music to the mood of the photo: Travel for places, Cinematic for drama
  • Vertical 9:16 for phones; 4K when the video will be shown large

Mistakes to avoid

  • Choosing a move that fights the photo, such as an orbit around a flat wall
  • Photos with no depth at all, where nothing is nearer than anything else

Yes. Every Create video has built-in sound: music in ten AI-generated styles, or a voiceover of up to 50 words, which is up to 20 seconds. Lip-sync is available through Talking photo, which makes the face in a photo speak a script of up to about 20 words in 4 or 8 seconds.
