What the Crowd Focus effect does

Become the person highlighted on a large screen above a crowd. The screen frames a close reaction shot among other spectators, while the foreground shows people watching below. Smiles and a hand-heart gesture turn the moment into a cheerful public shout-out.

This is a fixed preset: the template sets the motion, scene, and 6-second length. You only upload one photo; there is no choreography, scene, or duration to write or adjust.

How to use Crowd Focus

  1. Choose the source Use a single clear image with the main subject easy to distinguish. Read the photo suggestions below before uploading, and compare your framing with the two source examples.
  2. Run the preset Start Crowd Focus with your uploaded photo. Its movement and setting are already selected, so you do not need a written prompt or a separate motion reference.
  3. Review the result Watch the whole clip before saving it. Check the opening, the main action, and the ending together; the sampled examples illustrate possible results rather than a guarantee that every detail will repeat.

Works well

  • A single portrait with an expressive, unobstructed face.

What we saw when we tested Crowd Focus

The preview begins with a man standing in a crowded square. His result appears on a large audience screen, turning toward nearby spectators, smiling, and forming a heart with his hands.

The greenhouse portrait becomes another audience-screen reaction. The man in cream is surrounded by spectators and ends with a hand-heart pose; raised hands from the watching crowd also enter the foreground.

The crowd moves around him while the camera locks onto him.

What the prompt asks for

  • What happens The crowd moves around him while the camera locks onto him.

Tips for a better Crowd Focus result

  • Choose a face that remains clear when presented as a screen within the video.

Crowd Focus: questions and answers

Am I standing on a stage in this effect?

The central action is displayed on an audience camera screen. The examples place the featured person among spectators rather than alone on a performance stage.

Can an indoor portrait become an audience shot?

The greenhouse source does become an outdoor crowd scene on the large display. The source location does not have to match the event setting.

Are the surrounding spectators taken from my photo?

The greenhouse source has no surrounding crowd. The other people in that result are generated as part of the audience scene.

Can I request a wave instead of the heart gesture?

The reaction sequence is fixed by this template, although its exact expressions vary. There is no gesture selection on this page.

Should I crop away the giant screen border?

Keeping some border and foreground heads helps explain the audience-camera reveal. A tight crop can make it look like an ordinary crowd portrait.
