Add a selfie and Spark makes an anime-style portrait of you, up to four versions at once, for a profile picture that is you without being a literal photo.
What you need
- An iPhone with Rift.
- A clear selfie, facing the camera, even light.
- A sense of the look: soft, bold, retro or dreamy.
Step by step
- Add your selfie to Rift.
- Describe the style and what must stay.
- Check the Draft. Ask for up to 4 versions. The price is on the Make button.
- Tap Make, choose the one that feels like you and save it to Library.
- Optional. Tap Turn into a video for a small blink or smile.
Lines to try with Spark
- “Anime portrait of me, soft pastel colours, keep my curly hair and round glasses.”
- “Bold ink lines and a bright teal background, head and shoulders.”
- “Retro 90s anime look, warm tones, slight film grain.”
- “Same style but my dog sitting on my shoulder.”
Tips
- Name the features that make you you. Glasses, freckles, hair length and colour.
- Describe the style, not a brand. Words like pastel, ink line and retro are enough.
- Crop for the circle. Leave space around the head.
- Try a few. Pick the one you would be happy to see every day.
