The scene and movement
The setting is a green valley where a crowd and stone wall give way to a castle. The lead gathers scattered stones, builds a rising wall and appears at the window of the castle it becomes. Your generation uses the prepared opening 15 seconds, so later moments in a full-length example may fall outside your result.
The story turns discarded stones into a comeback symbol. Follow the material-to-wall-to-castle progression and check the final portrait rather than promising exact architecture.
The role your photo replaces
For this template, your photo defines the central builder and final window figure; keep the crowd. Use the editor preview to locate that role before uploading. The photo guides appearance, hair or fur, body proportions, and visible clothing; it does not record a new voice.
Use one photo per labeled role. Subjects without an upload slot keep their reference appearance.
Prepare a useful appearance reference
Choose one person photo with a clear face and some clothing visible, not a castle image. The crowd and castle are supplied by the reference.
Keep one subject clearly separated from the background. For Stones To Castle, pay particular attention to hands picking up stones, wall growth, castle edges and identity at the final window. Include the body and outfit details that will be visible in those moments; avoid a collage or a group photo.
What follows the prepared reference
The camera path, scene order, supporting cast and props come from the prepared clip. The instructions preserve a green valley where a crowd and stone wall give way to a castle and the movement described above. Replacing the appearance does not add separate controls for a new location, a different prop or another choreography.
Review these moments in the result
Play the entire result at normal speed, then pause around hands picking up stones, wall growth, castle edges and identity at the final window. Check the same identity before and after a turn or overlap. A strong first frame does not guarantee that every later frame is consistent.
Length, credits and sound
The prepared generation is 15 seconds and costs 3 credits. The collected full reference is about 15 seconds. Previews can be longer and are free to play. The quote on Generate applies to the prepared clip, not to every second in the example gallery. Short-template estimates on this guide use 720p; choose 480p in the studio to see its lower quote. Long-template estimates use fixed 480p pricing.
The original audio is kept separately and merged into the finished video. Preview with the sound controls before creating.
