Best photo for the Bad Times AI video
Which photo makes the best Bad Times AI video: head to knees, facing the camera, what to avoid, and how to photograph your pet.
3 min read · Updated
The short version
- For you: head to knees, facing the camera, in soft light.
- For your pet: the whole body in view, at its eye level, in good light. Sitting or standing both work.
A photo of you
The clearer the photo, the more the video looks like you. Crop a group shot down to one person before you upload it, and keep sunglasses, hands and hair off your eyes.
A photo of your pet
Get down to your pet’s eye level, fit its head, paws and tail in the frame, and wait for a still moment in good light. Sitting or standing both work.
What happens to your photo
Your photo is used only to make your video and stays private to your account. Photos are deleted automatically 7 days after upload, and you can delete them sooner from My videos. Only use photos you have the right to use: no celebrities and nobody under 18.

Questions
Do I need a video of myself?
No. One still photo is enough. The moves, the timing and the camera come from the trend.
What if the video fails?
You don’t pay for it: what it used goes back to your balance automatically, and you can try again with another photo.
