How to Clone This Viral Video

Step 1: Open the Hand with Me effect

Go to the Hand with Me video effect by Pollo AI. It turns a single image into a scene with miniature versions of the subject standing on an open palm.

Step 2: Upload your main subject

Upload an image, then add a clear photo of the main person, character, pet, or product you want to feature.

Choose a sharp image with the subject’s face, silhouette, clothing, and key details easy to recognize. A visible arm or open hand can support the palm-based composition.

Move, scale, and crop the image so the subject remains clear and well positioned.

Best Practices

  • Use a sharp source image with clean separation between the subject and background.
  • Keep the face, silhouette, clothing, and recognizable details visible.
  • Choose an image with a visible arm or open hand when possible.
  • Use clear contrast so the miniature subject remains easy to read.
  • Avoid busy backgrounds that distract from the main subject.
  • Match the crop to a vertical platform frame when creating for short-form feeds.
