Driver Put Phone Away AI video: why does the face not look like me?
Updated:
Short answer
Faces drift when the model cannot see the face clearly, and in this trend the head turns and the mouth opens wide. Use a sharp, bright, front-facing photo where the face fills a third of the frame, no sunglasses, then check the free 5-second preview before spending credits.

Common causes
- Small face: you are far away in the photo.
- Sunglasses or a cap: the model has to guess your eyes.
- Side-on photos: the driver turns, so start from a front view.
A quick fix routine
- Pick a new photo that follows the photo guide.
- Run the free preview and compare the face with your photo.
- Only then render the full video, because each full render costs 1 credit.
Questions people ask
Is a changed face a failed video?
No. A failed video is one that did not finish, and those return the credit automatically.
Why does the face look different when the head turns?
Side views show less of the face, so the model fills the gaps. A sharper front photo gives it more to hold on to.
