## What it does

You stand still with your eyes closed. A glowing golden outline of you rises out of your body and floats above as sparkles drift down, and you open your eyes to look up.

## From our test

We tested a woman in a white blouse. A bright golden double of her rose from her body and floated upward, with a glowing outline and sparkles. It took about 3 minutes.

## Tips for the best photo

- Use a waist-up photo, standing straight, with light clothing so the gold glow stands out.
- Keep your eyes closed or relaxed and your arms down.
- Use a plain, softly lit indoor background.

## Ideas for using it

- A dreamy reveal for a spiritual or wellness creator.
- A fantasy character intro for a game or story account.
- A creative profile clip for an artist.

## A glowing golden double rises out of you

A glowing golden light version of you rises up out of your body and hovers above as sparkles drift around. 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

### Is the golden double a copy of me?

It is a glowing outline in your shape, made of light rather than a second photo.

### Can I use a group photo?

One person at a time works best, so the double rises from a single body.

### Do I need to write a prompt for Spirit Rise?

No. Spirit Rise 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 Spirit Rise 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.
