What this action does
styled as a record sleeve with the type baked in. You give the app a single photograph and it returns a new still image of you in that style. This one does not move: it is a restyle rather than an animation, and the picture is rebuilt in the style rather than having a filter laid over it. Nothing is photographed and nothing is recovered, so the result is a new picture that resembles the one you supplied.
What photo works best
Your figure is placed large on a flat field of colour, which makes the cutout around you the whole job. Pick a picture where the outline is obvious: hair clear of a matching background, arms slightly out from the body, no fence or foliage crossing the shoulders. Waist up or full length, centred. Small type sits in the lower left, so keep that corner free of a hand or a bag. A dim photograph is the wrong start, because a flat bright colour field shows every bit of murk in the figure standing on it.
What to expect
One photograph goes in and a new still picture comes out, restyled rather than filtered: the model rebuilds the frame in the style instead of laying an effect over it. Run it twice if the first attempt gets a detail wrong, because the second version will not be identical.
If the result is not convincing, the fix is almost always the photograph rather than the settings. Reshoot it wider, get more light on the face, and move the arms clear of the body. The rest of what decides the result applies to every action here, and the limits apply to this one too.
Common questions
- What kind of photo works best for Album Cover?
- Album Cover rebuilds your photograph as a new still image, and the one frame you choose is the entire input. Whatever has to appear in the result has to be in the shot, so frame wide enough to take in everything the style touches, keep the subject sharp and clearly separated from what is behind them, and get even light onto the face and the hands.
- Does Album Cover make a video?
- No. Album Cover is a photo style, so it returns a new still image rather than a clip. The photograph is remade in the style rather than having an effect laid over it. The motion actions elsewhere in the library are the ones that produce video.
- Do I need a subscription to use Album Cover?
- No. Album Cover is not marked as a subscription only action in the app's catalogue. AI Video is free to download, and generating a result uses credits, which are bought as a pack or come with a subscription.

Every movement and every style in the library is written up the same way, so you can check whether the picture in your camera roll actually suits it before you spend a credit.
