Explosion Walk video: the person is tiny at the start
Updated:
Short answer
The opening shows you far down the road on purpose, the way the Reel does, so you look tiny until you reach the camera. If your face still reads small at the end, switch to a close head-and-shoulders portrait and the tall 9:16 shape, where the walker gets the most room.

What to try
- A close portrait instead of a full-length shot.
- The tall 9:16 shape.
- The free preview first, to see how the last seconds look.
Why it starts small
The distance is what makes the walk toward the lens feel long and the blast feel huge behind you. Remove the distance and the joke loses its scale.
Questions people ask
Is a small start a mistake?
No. It's the opening of the format, and every video begins this way.
Does the wide 16:9 shape make it worse?
It can. The walker occupies less of a wide frame, so tall 9:16 usually shows the face better.
Did a tiny face use up my credits for nothing?
A finished video counts as delivered. Run the free preview first to judge the face before you spend credits.
