## What it does

Your photo pulls back to reveal that it is a framed print on a white gallery wall. You lean forward, put a hand on the frame edge, and step out of the picture into the gallery, leaving an empty frame behind you.

## From our test

We tested with a man in a denim jacket against a light wall. The frame appears around him in the second frame, and by the last frame he stands outside it in the gallery, leaving the frame empty.

## Tips for the best photo

- Use a full-body or waist-up photo with your whole figure clear.
- A plain background makes the frame easy to see.
- Keep your arms away from your sides so you can grip the frame.

## Ideas for using it

- An artist shows a portrait coming to life for a gallery post.
- A photographer shares a clever portfolio clip.
- A friend makes a funny photo reveal.

## Step right out of your own photo

Your photo becomes a framed print on a wall, and you climb out of it into the room. Full-body or waist-up photos 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.

## Movie-style effects without editing software

Effects that used to mean compositing and particle work in an editor, rendered in one pass with lighting that matches your photo.

## 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

### Will a caption or label appear on the wall?

No. The direction keeps text off the wall.

### Does the frame show my original photo?

Yes. The framed print starts as your photo, then you step out of it.

### Do I need to write a prompt for Frame Breakout?

No. Frame Breakout 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 Frame Breakout 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.
