FaceStar App 12+

Photo merge to face

Thought it would be better just looks like a child has copy and pasted the photo into the scenes doesn’t look smooth at all, that needs changing quick becuase it looks good in the videos to advertise it but when you try it it’s nothing like that.

Advertising posts are made with normal photographs, videos are not retouched. You have to use frontal images, like in identity documents ... images with good lighting, definition and without dark shadows on the face. If you go to Instagram #facestar #faceoscar you will be able to see the clips posted by users around the world ... some very well made.

Disappointing - Clips too short

Disappointed with this paid for app. The clips are far too short, with a lot of the clips not actually showing the face. The import of photos need work. Ideally it would make sense to import the photo and then add the face frame so it can be cropped as well as it possibly can. There isn’t a wide variety of clips, some seem forced and pointless (the footballers in particular). This could potentially be a really fun app with the right clips available. After 10minutes of using the app I was bored. Shame.

Some videos don't show face ... it's not true, all videos show face. The rest are your options which we obviously respect.

I have my annoyances with it

So, it’s a good price and good app. I would give it 5 star

EXCEPT it doesn’t blend faces at all well to the clips. Like no matter how bright I take the pictures there’s always a dark like around where it’s added my face on making it look really bad.

Also... the camera face shape is impossible to line up with my face as I don’t have ears that high up my head.

Suggestions: It needs a feature to blend the face onto the video so it’s not so obvious it’s masked on because it makes it look really cheap and not much different from a free program online (which I won’t mention as it’s also got the same problem)
