What this action does

A slow hip-roll turn in warm red light. You give the app a single photograph and it generates a short clip of that movement, roughly 5 seconds long. Nothing is filmed and nothing is recovered: the motion is produced from the one frame you supply.

What photo works best

The camera orbits while you turn, so the side of you the lens never saw has to be filled in. Stand front on against a plain background with clear space around the body for that orbit to travel through. Full length or mid thigh up, hips in frame, one arm free to raise. Warm low light in the original blends into the red grade with less correction than a cold one. A photograph taken close against a patterned wall is the hard case, since the background moves too.

What to expect

One photograph goes in and a short clip comes out. It is generated rather than filmed, so run it twice if the first attempt puts a hand somewhere strange; 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 Bachata Close Turn?
Bachata Close Turn builds about 5 seconds of movement out of your photograph, 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 movement touches, keep the subject sharp and clearly separated from what is behind them, and get even light onto the face and the hands.
How long is the video?
About 5 seconds. That is what the default video model in the app's catalogue is configured to produce, and it is the same for every motion action in the library.
Do I need a subscription to use Bachata Close Turn?
No. Bachata Close Turn 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.

The right action for the photo beats the popular one

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.
