Become the main character of the scene
Add a front-facing photo of yourself and the Main Character effect puts you into a 15-second cinematic scene: you walk through a crowd of people in dark suits while the camera follows. The camera moves, the people around you and the sound stay exactly as in the original; only the lead changes, and it's you. Three more angles of your face make the likeness much closer.

Your photos
One front photo is enough to start. Adding the other three angles makes the face much closer to you.
How to take them

Use the back camera at eye level, about 1 m away, in soft daylight. No glasses, hats or filters.

Questions about this effect
Why does it ask for four photos?
One front photo is enough to start. The scene shows you from many angles, though, so photos turned left, turned right and waist-up help the face stay close to yours in every shot.
Can I use someone else's photos?
Only with their permission. Before you start, you confirm the photos are of you or that the person agreed. Photos of children aren't allowed.
