Which ceiling fan transition versions you can make

Many similar tools take one solo photo, with random outfits or a fixed style pack. Here you can make:

Example: a person and a cat in the Halloween set

Two photos: her half-body photo and a ragdoll cat. Halloween set, no extra idea.

The cat keeps four paws and a tail in all four looks, and both change together each time. This sample was made by our team, not by a user. Your result will vary with the photo you upload.

Test with a cheaper setting first

For your first try, use a cheaper model for 5 seconds to see whether the photo and outfits work. When you are happy, switch to the recommended setting for the full 15 seconds.

Other models are available in Settings. Each model gives a different result; this is only a suggestion.

Choose a photo for your ceiling fan transition

Keep the face clear and frame a little wider so the body shows. A full-body photo is best; a half-body photo works too, with the legs and shoes generated for each outfit.

Avoid sunglasses, heavy filters, backlighting and blur. One person per photo; for pets, get the whole animal in frame.

Full body, best

Prepare photos of your own clothes

One photo per outfit, laid flat or hanging. Show the whole item, from collar to hem, keep it smooth and use a plain background. The upload order is the change order.

To change only one or two, pick them in Change set and keep the default for the rest.

Extra idea: change the scene in one line

Leave it empty for the default: rolling from the sofa onto the rug, changing on each blade pass. To change it, write one short line:

  • Rose petals on the rug
  • Lying on a picnic blanket
  • Vintage film
  • Snow outside the window
  • All four outfits in red

The fan, the overhead angle and changing on each blade pass stay the same.

Check the ceiling fan transition result

  1. Is it the same person in every look? For pets, four paws and a tail throughout.
  2. How many blade passes: three in 15 seconds, two in 10, one in 5.
  3. Does the new outfit appear while the blade covers the person?
  4. Are the outfits and the order the ones you chose?
