People
Saving a face so that it is genuinely yours on the thumbnails.
A person is a saved face. When you select one, the model rebuilds that face in the visual, instead of inventing somebody who vaguely resembles you.
This is the feature that makes the difference on a YouTube thumbnail: the image shows your head, not a stranger's.
Creating a person
From the People page, New person button. Give it a name and upload one or more photos.
Every photo is analysed automatically. Cost: 0.4 credit per photo.
Which photos to supply
| Prefer | Avoid |
|---|---|
| Sharp, well-lit face | Blurry or dark photo |
| Front or three-quarter view | Strict profile, cropped face |
| Simple background | Busy scene with several faces |
| Neutral or clear expression | A grimace that is hard to reinterpret |
Several photos of the same person help: the model gets more angles from which to rebuild the features.
Using a person
The Person tool in the studio toolbar only appears in thumbnail mode, because that is where a face carries the visual.
From a person's detail page, the Create a thumbnail button opens the studio directly with that person already selected.
How the model uses it
If your brief starts from an existing thumbnail showing somebody else, Kreafy asks the model to keep the original expression, gaze, pose and framing, but to rebuild them with the selected person's features. The rest of the visual is not retouched.
The likeness depends on the quality of the photos you supply. A single blurry photo gives an approximate result: add two or three sharp ones.

A person's detail page
The detail page lists every thumbnail created with that person, and lets you rename, add photos or delete the person. Deleting a person does not delete the visuals already generated.
