Photo tips

FAQ
Why do the feet look jittery or “slippy”?
Ghost-step style motion relies heavily on clear leg and foot boundaries. If feet are cropped, low-contrast, or covered by clothing/objects, the motion can look unstable. Try a full-body photo with visible shoes/feet and a simpler background.
Does this template work with a close-up face photo?
It can generate something, but Ghost Step Dance is designed for footwork. A close-up crop usually reduces the effect. For best results, use a wider shot where the lower body is visible.
Is it private to upload a baby photo?
Your creations are private by default. You choose if anything becomes public. See /privacy#parents-safety for a human-readable summary.
Can I share the result to TikTok / Reels / Shorts?
Yes. You can download the output and share it anywhere (TikTok, Reels, Shorts, etc.).
How long does it take?
Processing time varies. Most short clips finish within a few minutes depending on server load.
