Anime Video template FAQ
Will the model keep my art style?
It tries to, and the first frame comes from your image, but the style can drift as the clip goes on, especially on fine line work. Short clips and small movements hold the style best.
Does it make real anime with many cuts?
No. It makes one continuous shot of up to 15 seconds from one image. For a longer piece, generate several shots and edit them together.
Which ratio should I pick?
Match photo keeps the shape of your illustration, which avoids cropping. Tall art works best with 9:16 or 3:4.
