How to choose the right photo for your Charme night video

Baile Charme AI makes your video from a single photo. The AI can only keep what it can see, so the photo you pick has more effect on the result than anything else. Here is what helps.

Show the whole body, head to shoes

The dance moves your feet, knees, hips and arms. If your feet are cut off or you are sitting down, the AI has to invent those parts — and invented feet rarely look right. Stand up, and make sure there is a little space above your head and below your shoes.

One adult, facing the camera

Baile Charme AI is designed for one adult per photo. Face the camera with your arms slightly away from your body, so your hands and outfit are easy to read. Photos with several people can give unpredictable results, and the service can't combine two separate photos into one dance.

Good light, sharp focus

Even daylight or a bright room works best. Very dark, blurry or heavily filtered photos make it harder to keep your face, hair and clothes recognizable in the night scene.

A vertical photo is easiest

Your video is vertical (9:16). Before anything is uploaded, your browser converts your photo into that exact shape:

• Fill the frame trims the edges. If your photo is wider, you can slide the crop so your whole body stays inside.
• Show the whole photo keeps everything and adds plain borders instead.

What you see in the preview is exactly the image that will be sent. The conversion also removes hidden photo details such as location and camera information.

Only photos you have the right to use

Use a photo of yourself, or of an adult who has agreed to it. Please don't upload photos of children, celebrities or anyone who hasn't given permission.
