The best photo for a Bulin 47 AI video

Use one sharp photo of one person facing the camera, from the head to at least the waist, eyes visible, in daylight or a bright room, with no filter, sunglasses or cap. On Bulin47Video.io (bulin47video.io) the AI first draws a standing, full-length portrait from that photo for the body and outfit, then takes the face from your original photo, so a clear face and a visible top matter most. JPG, PNG, WebP or HEIC up to 25 MB, at least 300 px on each side.

What happens to your photo

  1. 1

    Your browser shrinks the photo and sends it. It stays private and is deleted after 7 days.

  2. 2

    An image model redraws it as a standing, full-length portrait on a plain grey background: same face, hair, skin and build, the clothes you were wearing, and plain matching items for anything the photo did not show. It adds no jewelry, glasses or hat.

  3. 3

    The video model takes that portrait for the body and your original photo for the face, and redraws the performer in seconds 9 to 24 of Kevin Wai's clip as you. If the portrait is not ready within a few minutes, your photo alone is used.

  4. 4

    The clip's original sound is laid back on, and you get a file with sound plus a silent copy.

Why a result may not look like you

The mouth always follows Bulin 47's rap, not your voice. That is by design, because the original sound goes back on.

What you seeUsual causeWhat to try
A different face from start to endSmall, blurry or side-on face, or a filterA sharper photo with the face filling more of the frame
Right face, then it drifts for a momentPartway through he throws an arm over his head and looks down at a phone, so the face is redrawn after being hiddenNormal for a frame or two; a front-facing photo with clear eyes keeps it closest

A strange expressionThe pose in the photo carried overA relaxed photo, mouth closed or a soft smile

Check before you pay

  • Each Google account can make one free 2-second preview at 480p from the same photo, taken from a moment where the performer faces the camera. Judge the face there first.
  • The full video is a new render from the same photo, so small details can differ from the preview.
  • If a render fails, the credits come back automatically. A video that rendered but does not look the way you hoped is not refunded, so test the photo first.
  • Prices: 10 credits at 480p (the $9.99 Single pack) or 22 at 720p. All packs.

Friends and pets

A friend only with their OK; adults only, and no celebrities or politicians, which the studio refuses. Dogs and cats work too: results vary more than with people, they keep their fur and get no shirt. More on pets: how to put your dog in the Bulin 47 video. Then make yours from one photo.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Can I use a selfie?

Yes, if it faces the camera and shows your shoulders. Below the frame, the outfit is filled in with plain items.

Can I use a group photo?

No. Use a photo of one person, or crop it to one person before you upload.

Do glasses work?

Clear glasses in the photo are kept. Sunglasses hide the eyes and make the face harder to keep, so take them off.

Can I get a refund if it does not look like me?

Failed renders are credited back automatically; a finished video is not refunded for how it looks. Check the face in the free preview first.
