# Turn a single face into a singing clip

Photo Singing Video turns one clear portrait and a short singing excerpt into an expressive clip in which the face sings along. It fits old-photo songs, birthday greetings, character art, and song promos, with the mouth and face moving in time with the audio. Photo Singing Video works in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and other agents that run Skills.

Drive the portrait with the approved singing excerpt and review singing motion, identity, and synchronization.
