FAQs About Changing Photo Poses

1. Is it possible to make a group photo with changed poses?

It is difficult but possible. AI is better at handling solo images. For group photos, AI may make mistakes in identifying the figures, and bring in hallucinations. You may need Photoshop-level manual work or segment and edit each person individually.

2. Can I change only the facial pose (e.g., turn the head)?

Yes, AI can only change the facial pose, like head direction or facial expression without altering the full body, as long as you made it clear in the prompt.

3. Will AI keep my identify and face after changing pose?

High-end AI tools like FlexClip preserve identity well. However, slight alternation on facial features is inevitable.

4. Are there privacy risks with using pose-change AI tools?

You need to check any AI tools’ privacy policy and terms of use before using them. FlexClip is a trustworthy, reputable tool. It will not share your personal data or uploaded photos to any third parties. Feel safe to use it to process your personal or sensitive images.
