## What it does

A wooden broom shows up in your subject's hands as they stand in your photo. They hop on and lift off, and the scene turns to a night sky with a huge full moon and bats flapping past. By the end they're a small silhouette crossing the face of the moon.

## From our test

Our test used a woman in a black dress standing in a leafy backyard, and she rose past bare trees before shrinking to a dark witch shape against a giant glowing moon. The render took about 2 minutes.

## Tips for the best photo

- Use a full-body photo so the broom has room to appear and the takeoff looks natural.
- Dark clothing gives the classic witch silhouette in the last shot.
- Outdoor photos with open sky above you suit the upward camera move.

## Ideas for using it

- A Halloween costume reveal for a group chat.
- A bakery announcing its October seasonal treats.
- A parent posting a fun October greeting for family and friends.

## FAQ

### Will my face show while I'm flying?

Your face shows during takeoff. Near the end you become a small silhouette against the moon, so the last frames are about the shape, not the face.

### Do I need to hold a broom in my photo?

No. The effect brings the broom in for you.

### Do I need to write a prompt for Broom Ride?

No. Broom Ride 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 Broom Ride 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.
