What Cool Shades does

A pair of black sunglasses drops into the shot and settles on your subject's face. They slide the frames into place with a hand, then tilt their head and hold a relaxed, confident smile as the clip ends.

A pair of shades and a slow-motion smile

Sunglasses drop into frame and land on your subject, who pushes them up and flashes a cool smile in slow motion. Waist-up portraits work best.

Still looks like you

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

Made for short-form video

Built for the clips people share on Reels, TikTok and Shorts: one clear moment in five seconds, framed to stop the scroll.

How to make a Cool Shades video

  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.

Tips for the best photo

  • Use a waist-up portrait so there is room for a hand to come up to the face.
  • Bright outdoor light suits the look, and a smile in the photo carries into the ending.
  • Skip photos where the subject already wears glasses or a hat that covers the eyes.

Ideas for using it

  • A summer profile clip for Instagram or TikTok.
  • A playful reveal before announcing a trip or a new job.
  • An eyewear shop showing the vibe of a sunny day out.

Cool Shades FAQ

Can I choose the style of sunglasses?

No. The effect uses a classic pair of black shades, so every clip has the same cool finish.

Does it work if I already wear glasses in my photo?

It works best without glasses, because the new pair needs a clear face to land on.

Do I need to write a prompt for Cool Shades?

No. Cool Shades 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 Cool Shades 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.
