Why does the runner's face not match my Banana Tree Run photo?
Updated:
Short answer
Small, dark, filtered or turned-away photos make a face drift, since the runner is filmed side-on and moving. Supply a sharp, well-lit picture with a big face aimed at the camera, run the free 5-second preview, and make the full video afterwards.
Quick fixes
- Crop tightly so the face is big and crisp.
- Photograph in daylight, with no sunglasses and no beauty filter.
- Choose a picture in which you look at the lens.
- Only a single person or pet in each picture.
Why it happens
Because the camera follows from the side at full speed, the face reaches the model at an angle and in motion. A sharper photo hands the model more to work with.
Questions people ask
Am I charged for a failed video?
No. Credits for a failed run come back automatically.
Does a full-length photo help?
For clothes and body shape, a little. Just make sure the face stays big enough to read.
Can I send two photos of the same person?
No, the template takes one photo. Pick the sharpest one.
Run the banana leaves with your own photo
One picture puts you, a friend or a pet on the leaf tops. No watermark on the full video, and nothing to subscribe to.
