Turn your photo into a stop-motion film

Drop in a portrait and press Gen. Seedream 5.0 turns you into a handmade film character; Seedance 2.5 sets it moving.

What the prompt knows. Name the material and its marks, where the light comes from, and three colours. Clay with thumbprints, lantern light, orange, teal and cream: that gives one clear look. Pick one, then go on.

What the prompt knows. The still sets the look, so the prompt only says what moves: one camera move, a breath, a blink, a glance. Ask for much more and the figure starts to drift. Sound is off, because Seedance sometimes refuses a clip when its soundtrack sounds like existing music.

Every Gen pays the page's creator, on top of what the models cost.
