Frequently asked questions
Can I make the whole video from two portraits?+
Yes. A one-click image-to-video workflow can use one clear adult portrait per person and generate the fictional scene around them.
Why is the hard cut placed on the leap?+
Fast motion hides small differences in pose and composition, making the move from the cold present to the warm memory feel deliberate.
What if my tool only makes eight-second clips?+
Generate the recognition and leap first, generate the warm memory second, then join both clips at the fastest point of the embrace.
How can I reduce moderation rejection?+
Use a flashlight instead of a threatening prop, describe the fictional makeup with short affirmative visual details, and keep both adult reference roles explicit.
