Effects AI tips

Choose a clear source image and get more predictable effect results.

Effects work best when the main subject is easy to recognize and is not hidden behind other objects.

  1. Choose a sharp source image with one obvious subject and clear edges.
  2. Use a simple background with good contrast so the subject is easy to detect.
  3. Keep the subject centered and large enough to remain recognizable after movement.
  4. Match the effect to the source: portrait effects need a visible face, while scene effects need room around the subject.
  5. Review the server-verified Gems quote before creating.
  6. If the result feels unpredictable, try a cleaner source image or a more suitable effect.
