In order for the video to play clearly within the photo, the proportions of the photo and video must match. This can only be achieved by cropping the video. The process of cropping a video is quite complicated and requires additional time. We decided to rid our clients of this problem forever. Now the video is cropped automatically! And even more than that, there are two options for cropping - by trimming and by adding, but more on that in the next help point))

You can crop by cutting off both sides of the video, but sometimes this approach leads to something irreparable - the main character’s head is cut off or something even more important. This is where adding blurred edges comes to the rescue. You've probably seen this when a video from a phone, shot vertically, is placed on a horizontal screen.
We can automatically trim or add. The choice is yours.

Sometimes it is necessary to receive a QR code even before the pairs are ready. For example, to prepare an album for printing, because you can revive a photo later.
In order to receive a QR code, create a new project in your office. Be sure to name it correctly so as not to get confused. After creating an album, the QR code can be used for printing, pairs can be downloaded later.

The mask is used when you need to make part of the video completely or partially transparent.
The mask is a jpg file, the proportions must match the proportions of the marker frame. RGB color model. The image of the mask must be black and white. Black color makes the video transparent, gray - semi-transparent, white - opaque. The same principle as in Photoshop. The file name must contain the name of the marker file and -mask. For example, a couple with a mask:

abc01.jpg, abc01-mask.jpg, abc01.mp4.

The difference between an ordinary user of the site and a dealer.
The QR code created by the User leads to the application market, all live pictures are paid for from the User's balance, and no one but him can add or pay for pairs in his album. This is the first type of QR code.

The dealer can create QR-codes of the first type, as well as those that lead to the website page, where you can not only download the application, but also add and pay for live pictures, while the dealer receives part of the money.

How does the partner program work?
Let's say you are a school photographer. Made an album for graduates and posted live photos in it. Usually that's the end of it, but not in our case! We have created a system that allows your customers to bring other photos to life. At the same time, you will receive dividends for each pair paid by your client.
Another option is when the photographer does not take live photos at all, but at the same time places a QR code on his album. With the help of this QR code, clients can bring their photos to life using their own stories, and the photographer will receive a reward for his work. Naturally, you need to advertise such an opportunity to your customers. This is useful for the photographer not only as additional income, but also as a competitive advantage. After all, this is a unique feature of our product today.

In order to use the partner program, it is enough to select the item "I want to be a dealer" in your personal account, fill in a few additional fields and wait for the manager to call you. We register dealers manually, and remuneration and other terms of cooperation are agreed individually. But the bottom line is that the dealer can set any price, above a certain limit, on the animated photo.

The partnership system is based on the fact that QR codes can be of different types. The behavior of the site and application depends on the type of QR code. For example, in one case, the QR code redirects to a page in PlayMarket or AppStore, and in the other, to a website page where you can manage live photos in the album. There are several types of QR codes, we will dwell on them in more detail. But first, let's deal with the rights. There are three types of rights - owner, editor and administrator.

  • Owner - the one who created the QR code (Album) and has the right to add, delete and edit unpaid pairs, and can also prohibit editors from making changes to the album. The owner of the album can pay pairs from his balance, as well as manage the cost of a live photo for the Editor.
  • The
  • Editor can add, delete and pay for their live photos in the album. You can become an editor if you have a QR code. The editor cannot pay for the pairs in the album from his balance, but only through the payment service, at the price set by the Owner.
  • Administrator can remove or replace live photo after payment. Sometimes it is necessary, and the Editor and the Owner cannot in any way affect already paid pairs.

Types of QR codes.

  • The first type - leads to a site page that automatically redirects to the appropriate application market: Google's Play Market or Apple's App Store. This type of QR code does not allow additions to the album by anyone except the owner of the album.
  • The second type is created by a partner and leads to a page intended for those who bought a photo book, can become an editor and animate and pay for the photos in it.
  • The third type of QR code is intended for producers of photo books. Here, the owner is the manufacturer of the photo book, and the person who bought the photo book with the QR code can become an editor and bring the photo to life in it at the price set by the manufacturer.

The affiliate program allows you to resell live images, even if they are not made by you, but by your customers.

For school graduation photo books, it works like this: the photographer places a QR code on the photo book, and the students themselves bring their photos to life using their own videos. They do this on our website, immediately pay for live pictures. And the photographer receives his percentage from each paid pair.

Как подготовить фото и видео к оживлению

  1. Формат видео: MP4 или MOV
  2. Разрешение видео: от 640 px по меньшей стороне (например: 1280х720)
  3. Длительность видео: до 90 сек, остальное будет обрезано
  4. Формат фото: jpg или jpeg
  5. Разрешение фото: от 640 px по меньшей стороне
  6. Файлы одной пары называйте одинаково, например:
    01.jpg и 01.mp4,
    02.jpg и 02.mp4.

Не стоит загружать видео в разрешении 2K или 4K, это не даст никаких преимуществ, а время загрузки и обработки видео увеличится.

Для того чтобы видео дополненной реальности проигрывалось четко в пределах фотографии, необходимо сделать пропорции видео такими же, как и пропорции фото. Но вам не придется кадрировать видео самостоятельно, сайт автоматически сделает это за вас. Видео кадрируется под пропорции фото сразу после загрузки пар в кабинете. Кадрирование производится двумя способами на ваш выбор:
1. Путем обрезки одинакового количества пикселей справа и слева, либо сверху и снизу.
2. Дополнением видео увеличенным и размытым видеороликом до нужных пропорций.
