THE PERFORMANCE
A walk-to-camera performance
The Popstar AI video trend turns a portrait into an animated, fast-moving solo performance. This reference follows the lead through a wood-panelled corridor, with forward steps, broad hand accents and a camera that moves with the rapper.
01
Keep your look through the movement
One uploaded portrait supplies the face, hair and outfit. The template follows the reference movement and setting without requiring the character or costume shown in the example. A clear upper-body photo leaves room for the gestures and changing shot distance.
The ten-second sequence begins with the performance already under way. Choose vertical for TikTok or Reels, then adjust model, quality and a short mood cue. The video reference and movement directions are already included.
Choose a sharp portrait with the eyes and mouth uncovered. Leave room around the chin and hair.
Show the shoulders
A chest-up or waist-up image gives the arm and shoulder movement a clear starting point.
Wear your own outfit
The example’s costume is optional. Your uploaded portrait supplies the clothing you want the performer to keep.
ADD YOUR ATTITUDE
Same scene. Your delivery.
Pick a direction to add to your video. You can edit it before continuing.
GET A BETTER TAKE
Small changes that help.
The result copies the example’s outfit
Use a portrait with the clothes clearly visible. Add a short cue to keep that outfit instead of describing a new costume.
Hands cover the face
Ask for compact free-hand accents below eye level. Avoid adding extra hand choreography to the moving reference.
You want a tighter face performance
Try Check One Check Two for a close-camera shot. Popstar is built around forward movement and more of the upper body.

A QUICK GUIDE
What is the Popstar AI video template?
Popstar follows a solo performer moving through a corridor with the matching vocal, forward steps and expressive arm accents. Your portrait provides the person and their look. The video reference guides the entrance, camera movement and performance.
Should I use a face-only selfie or an upper-body photo?
An upper-body portrait gives the moving shoulders and arms a clearer starting point. Keep the face sharp and leave space around the hair and chin. A very tight crop supplies less information for this walking scene.
What should I write in Extra direction?
Describe the attitude you want, such as focused eye contact or a playful smile between lines. Keep the walking sequence and existing props in mind instead of asking for several new actions at once.
BEFORE YOUR FIRST VIDEO
Popstar questions
Is this a still image effect?+
No. It is a video template with walking, quick gestures and moving camera framing. Your photo supplies the performer’s appearance.
Do I need to wear the outfit in the example?+
No. Upload the look you want to use. The template directs the model to keep your portrait’s clothing and identity.
Can I use a selfie?+
Yes, if the face is sharp and unobstructed. A chest-up photo gives more useful detail for the arm and shoulder movement than a very tight face crop.
What does the template include?+
A ten-second video reference with the Popstar soundtrack, corridor setting, camera movement and performance direction. Add one portrait and choose your settings.
Can I keep my own voice?+
Use One photo in Studio and choose Upload or record for your own audio. A photo alone does not supply a voice recording.
How is this different from Check One Check Two?+
Popstar follows a walking performer through a corridor with broad gestures. Check One Check Two stays very close to the face with a crowd behind the lead.
Can I try the tool before signing in?+
You can choose a template, add portraits and adjust the settings before signing in. Sign in when you are ready to generate. Your files and selections stay in this browser tab.
How much does a video cost?+
The credit estimate updates with the model, quality and duration. The workspace confirms the price before creation. Opening a template does not spend credits.
Will opening the workspace lose my photos?+
No. Your selected portraits, template, duration, format and extra direction travel together. You can review and change them in the workspace before creating.
