What Pixie Orbit does
You stand still as tiny glowing fairies with shimmering wings fly in from the edges of the frame. They circle around you leaving golden sparkle trails, and one hovers near your shoulder.
Tiny glowing fairies circle around you
A swarm of small glowing fairies with sparkling wings flies in and circles you, leaving trails of light. 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.

- Upload a photo, or pick one from your library.
- Press Generate. There is no prompt to write; the effect is already set up.

Tips for the best photo
- Use a waist up photo with open space around you for the fairies to circle.
