What this action does

lit from below by carved pumpkins. 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

Light comes up off the ground here, which is the opposite of how most photographs are lit. That underlight is generated, so what the source has to offer is a face evenly visible now, with no heavy shadow already sitting under the brow. Waist up or head and shoulders, front on, taken outdoors or near a door. The build insists the face stays an ordinary human face, so no mask and no paint in the original. A backlit photograph works against it, because the new light arrives from entirely the wrong direction.

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 Pumpkin Glow?
Pumpkin Glow 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 Pumpkin Glow make a video?
No. Pumpkin Glow 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 Pumpkin Glow?
No. Pumpkin Glow 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.
