How to pick an effect

Effects don’t follow a dance or a story. They do one surprising thing to whoever is in your photo, which makes them easy to loop and easy to react to. Keep the subject centered with some space around it, since the effect needs room.

Each effect is an 8-second vertical video with sound. The ones that take a pet read its shape from the photo, so one animal, clearly in view, works better than a group. For Earth Zoom Out and Levitate, a photo with some sky or open ground behind you gives the camera somewhere to go.
