What photo works for a Banana Tree Run AI video?

Updated:

Short answer

Use one sharp, well-lit photo of a single adult or pet with the face clearly visible. A full-body photo works best, because the runner is shown head to toe from the side. Avoid group photos, sunglasses, heavy filters and photos of children. JPG, PNG or WebP up to 10 MB.

Questions people ask

Can I use a selfie?

Yes, if the face is sharp. The model invents the rest of the body, so clothes may change more than with a full-body photo.

Do I need sports clothes?

No. You run in the clothes from your photo. The viral clip uses jeans and a jersey.

What size should the photo be?

Between 300 and 6000 pixels on each side, up to 10 MB.
