What you need to make a Burning Bridges AI video.
Start with one portrait containing a single clear face. The studio supplies the prepared performance, so you do not need to find a reference clip, record yourself or write a video prompt. Use a photo you have permission to use.
JPEG, PNG and WebP uploads are supported, up to 10 MB. You can upload before signing in. Generation requires credits and an available studio; where guest sessions are enabled, you can begin in the same browser. Check the current quote and studio status before purchasing.
Upload one portrait for the foreground lead.
Open the Burning Bridges creation studio and choose your photo in the foreground lead slot. Pick a sharp, well-lit portrait with visible eyes, nose and mouth. A close, front-facing or gently angled face gives the model more detail than a distant face in a group shot.
Your portrait targets the lead in the black head covering and leather jacket, holding a silver cup. The surrounding people are intended to stay unchanged. You do not need a second reference photo or a separate photo for each person in the crowd.
Watch the Burning Bridges AI demonstration.
Play the studio demonstration with sound. Follow the lead through close-ups, turns and movement across the room. Notice where hands or other people cover the face; those moments are useful to check in your finished result.
The demonstration shows an example identity. Your new video is generated from a separate prepared source with your uploaded portrait. The 30-second completed case shows the full-length example; the studio demonstration uses cuts of that performance. Both are separate from the private generation input.
Choose your clip length, quality and frame.
Every option starts at 0:00. Choose 5 seconds for the opening, 12 seconds for a longer segment or 29 seconds for the longest prepared cut. The supplied original is approximately 29.07 seconds; the 30-second public case does not extend the generation input.
| Setting | Available choices | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Length | 5, 12 or 29 seconds | How much of the opening performance you want. |
| Resolution | 480p or 720p | The exact credit quote for your selection. |
| Frame | Original, 1:1 or 9:16 | Whether the lead stays inside the crop outline. |
The original option preserves the landscape composition. Square and vertical output use a centered crop after generation. A moving lead can leave a narrow crop, so inspect the frame preview before confirming. See credits and pricing for the current rates.
Review the photo and quote before generating.
Confirm permission to use the portrait, then use the generation button to open review when the studio is available. Check the photo, duration, resolution, frame and required credits. Opening the review does not submit a paid generation; the final confirmation submits the request and reserves its quoted credits.
If you need credits, the studio shows purchase options. Returning from checkout does not itself start a video. Review the settings again and confirm generation when your balance is updated.
Keep the page open while the request is saved. If the connection times out, check your last request or My videos before submitting again, because the first request may still be running.
Watch the result and download your private MP4.
The result page opens after the request is saved. Once the video and media checks finish, watch the whole clip. Check the lead’s face during front and side views, the hands and crowd, and whether the selected crop keeps the action visible.
Listen to the restored source audio and check mouth timing. This workflow uses audio from the same source segment; it does not create a new voice or song. AI identity consistency and lip sync can vary, so review the result before downloading or sharing.
Burning Bridges AI video tutorial questions.
Can I use this guide on a phone?
Yes. Open the studio in your phone’s browser and choose a portrait from your device. If you select 9:16 output, review the centered crop before generating.
Can I upload a different source video?
This studio uses its prepared Burning Bridges source. You choose the portrait, segment length, resolution and frame.
Is watching the examples free?
Yes. Watching the demonstration and completed case does not use generation credits. A new video requires the credits shown in the studio.
What if the face changes during movement?
Review the full clip, especially turns and partial face cover. A clearer portrait may help a new request, but changing the photo does not edit an already generated video. Each new generation is a separate request.
To make a Burning Bridges AI video, start with one clear photo and check your selected segment before confirming. For more context about the format, read what Burning Bridges AI is.
