Which photo makes the best Ramalama AI video: face and shoulders, straight on, what to avoid.

The short version
- Your face, looking at the camera, in good light, with nothing covering it.
- A head-to-knees photo helps keep your build in the costume.
Your photo




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.
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
Will my hair show under the hat?
Yes. Your own hair comes from your photo and shows under the brim, so the reveal looks like you.
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.
