Check the template before preparing your photo
The first step on this website is to watch the reference above the upload panel. This is a fixed performance, rather than a blank video editor. The photo guides who appears at the center; the reference guides the movement, outfit, party setting, props and camera. If you want a different scene, choose a workflow that accepts your own source video.
The result specification is a ten-second, landscape 16:9, 720p MP4 with the prepared audio. Third-party reference examples can have different lengths or framing and are labeled separately. They are not a promise about this tool’s output. There is no custom prompt, second portrait, arbitrary reference upload or model selector in the one-photo flow.
Choose one portrait with a readable face
Use a clear image of one adult. The face should be large enough to inspect, with ordinary lighting and visible features. A recent portrait with a relaxed expression is a useful starting point. Crop out other people so the intended subject is unambiguous. Avoid sunglasses, a hand covering the face, heavy filters and motion blur; those give the process less readable identity information. You do not need to copy the template’s clothes or pose in the photograph. The still image and the moving reference do different jobs. Check that you are choosing the intended file before continuing, especially if your camera roll contains edited versions. A clearer image can improve the input without guaranteeing exact likeness or perfect hands in the generated result.
Preview the image and confirm permission
Choose the photo in the upload panel and inspect its local preview. Selecting an image does not itself create a task or consume a credit. Replace it if the wrong person, an accidental crop or an unreadable face appears. The browser prepares supported images for upload; a format or decoding error needs to be resolved before you can submit the file.
Permission is part of how to make Burning Bridges AI video responsibly. Use your own image or obtain the depicted adult’s agreement for this AI remake. Having a copy of a photograph does not automatically provide the photographer’s rights or the subject’s consent. The permission control records your acknowledgement; it cannot independently prove either person’s identity or permission.
Sign in and choose a credit pack
You can inspect the template and select a local photo before signing in. Submission requires an account so the task and its result belong to you. If the sign-in panel appears when you continue, complete authentication and return to the generator. Check the chosen portrait again before submitting, particularly after a page reload that may clear the local selection.
One delivered video costs one credit. Starter includes one credit for $4.90, Plus includes three for $9.90, and Pro includes eight for $19.90. These are one-time purchases without a subscription. There are no bonus generation credits promised for registration. The preview is free; it does not include a free delivered video.
If your available balance is too low, choose a pack and review the checkout before paying. The payment confirmation must be verified before credits become available. A return page that is still checking payment is not a second request to pay. Wait for the status to update and contact support with the order reference if it remains unresolved.
Credits never expire. You can keep an unused balance for a later attempt, and a failed task’s released credit retains that rule. Credits and stored media have different lifetimes: paying for a pack does not provide permanent file hosting. Review the pricing and refund policy before checkout if you are deciding how many attempts you want to purchase.
Submit once and follow the task status
When the photo, permission and balance are ready, use the generation control once. The service reserves one credit while it processes the request. A reservation keeps the same balance from being spent twice; it is not a completed delivery. The account supports one active task at a time, so let the current request reach a final state before starting another.
Knowing how to make Burning Bridges AI video also means recognizing that processing can continue after you close the page. Return to My videos to see the task and download a completed result. A queued or processing state is not a failure. There is no guaranteed completion time, and repeatedly submitting the same photo is not a reliable way to speed up a request.
Handle a failure without paying for a duplicate
A confirmed technical or moderation failure releases the reserved credit. Review the explanation shown with the task and correct a readable input problem before making a new request. Do not try to bypass safety checks or submit a person who has not consented. The service can reject content even if the uploaded file opens correctly in the browser.
If the service cannot yet determine whether processing started, it checks the existing task before treating it as failed. An uncertain status is a reason to wait for reconciliation, not to create repeated paid attempts. For support, provide the task reference, approximate time and the message shown. Do not send your password, full card details or an identity document in an initial email.
Inspect the full video before downloading
When the task succeeds, play all ten seconds with sound. Check that the person remains recognizable through the movement, that hands do not merge with the face, and that the cup and clothing remain coherent. Inspect the end as well as the opening frame. Pause near the searching gesture if you notice a jump, then replay at normal speed to judge how distracting it is.
A tutorial on how to make Burning Bridges AI video cannot promise a pixel-perfect recast. Generative output can change facial detail, props, movement and timing. A technically delivered video is a completed generation even when you would prefer another interpretation. Starting a new successful remake consumes a new credit; contact support if the file is corrupt, missing or cannot be downloaded.
Save within the media retention window
Download the MP4 to a location you control and open that saved copy before relying on it. Finished results are retained for thirty days; uploaded photos for seven days. Earlier deletion is available. A temporary download link can expire before the underlying file is deleted, so return to your account for access while the result is still within its retention period. Do not use My videos as the only archive for something you want to keep. Save a backup before editing or sharing, and keep the landscape original if you later make a vertical version. The expiry of a photo or result never clears your unused credits. Deleting your account is a separate action that affects account access, so resolve outstanding billing or download questions first.
