## What it does

Your subject starts facing the camera, then turns steadily through profile, back and the other profile before coming round to face you again. The room and light stay steady, so the clip works like a turntable view of the whole outfit.

## From our test

We tested a woman in a long green dress in a sunlit apartment, and the skirt flares out as she turns so you can see the open back of the dress in the middle frames. In our render the subject turned rather than the camera circling, which still gives a full view from every side.

## Tips for the best photo

- Use a full body photo with the subject standing upright and centered.
- Clothing with an interesting back or side detail gets the most out of the turn.
- Leave space around the subject so a flaring skirt or coat does not get clipped at the edges.

## Ideas for using it

- Clothing sellers showing the back of a dress without a second photo shoot.
- Brides and bridesmaids sharing a full view of their outfits ahead of the day.
- Small shops showing a ceramic piece or sculpture from all sides.

## A full orbit around your subject

The camera circles all the way around your subject in one smooth orbit, like a product turntable shot. Works with people, pets and objects.

## Still looks like you

The video opens on your exact photo, so the face, hair, outfit and surroundings carry through the whole effect.

## A cinematic camera move from a still photo

The kind of shot that normally takes a drone, a gimbal or a crane, made from one photo. Great as an intro, a reveal or a transition between scenes.

## How to make it

1. Upload a photo, or pick one from your library.
2. Press Generate. There is no prompt to write; the effect is already set up.
3. Your 5 second HD video is ready in a minute or two. Save it to your library or download it.

## FAQ

### Does the camera move around me or do I turn?

In our test the subject did the turning while the room stayed still. Either way you get a full circle view.

### Can it show the back of my outfit if the photo only shows the front?

Yes, the effect fills in the back. Simple designs come out most faithful, so check fine details like printed text on the back.

### Do I need to write a prompt for 360 Rotation?

No. 360 Rotation is a ready-made effect: upload a photo and press Generate. The directions for the motion, camera and lighting are already built in.

### How long is the 360 Rotation video, and how long does it take?

Every effect makes a 5 second HD video that matches the shape of your photo, portrait or landscape. Most are ready in one to three minutes, and you can leave the page while it renders.

### Does the video have sound?

Yes. Each clip comes with matching ambient sound effects. It does not add music, so you can lay your own track over it in any editor.

### Can I use a photo of someone else?

Only photos of adults, of yourself or of people who agreed to it. Every upload goes through the same safety checks as the rest of PixelDojo.
