## FAQ

### What do I need for Motion Transfer?

Upload a source video showing the dance or movement and a reference image for the subject that should carry it. Choose clear media with a visible pose and explain the intended relationship between the movement and the reference.

### How can I get a clearer motion transfer?

Use source footage with a distinct subject, consistent lighting, and movement that is visible from start to finish. The reference image should show the subject clearly, with enough of the body or character visible for the desired motion.

### What should I review in a Motion Transfer preview?

Check whether the transferred movement follows the source timing while preserving the reference subject's important appearance. Inspect hands, feet, edges, face, clothing, and fast transitions for changes that make the result distracting.

### What permissions apply to Motion Transfer media?

Use a source video and reference image that you own or are authorized to transform and publish. Obtain permission for identifiable people, recognizable characters, and any music or performance included in the movement source.

### What does Motion Transfer actually change in my footage?

Motion Transfer is a Listnr Studio edit for a movement-focused edit based on source media. You bring source media you are allowed to change, describe the intended result, and continue in the editor. This public page only prepares that brief.

### How do I keep the original subject readable after the Motion Transfer edit?

Keep the source subject, faces, and any on-screen type inside the frame after the change. Describe only the intended treatment so Listnr Studio does not invent a different event than the footage shows. Review that choice on the Motion Transfer timeline in Listnr Studio.
