BicepHeartWhat photo actually works for a bicep heart video
A practical checklist for people and pets, including crops to avoid.
For a person: include the whole movement area
Use a sharp waist-up photo facing the camera. Keep the head, shoulders, both elbows and both hands inside the frame, with space around the upper body. A plain wall is easier to read than a crowded gym mirror.
A useful crop includes the whole torso and hands. A weak crop stops at the shoulders. An unsuitable crop cuts through a wrist or includes a second person’s arm. These are framing examples, not promises about a specific output.
For a dog or cat: show the front paws
Choose one animal with an unobstructed face and visible front legs. A seated, front-facing pet is a practical starting point. A face close-up under a blanket hides the anatomy needed for the paw lift.
File quality matters more than filters
Upload JPG, PNG or WebP up to 5 MB. The photo must be at least 256 pixels on each side; a larger clear original is preferable to an enlarged thumbnail. Export HEIC photos to JPG first. Avoid heavy beauty filters, motion blur and screenshots with interface elements.
Use the phone photo without emailing it
On desktop, choose Upload from phone and scan the temporary QR code. Select one image on your phone, then send it back to the open desktop session. Keep the desktop signed into the account that created the code. The link expires after ten minutes.
