What is the Christmas Card Delivered effect?

Christmas Card Delivered is a festive AI video effect from Flux AI that turns a single photo into a warm, holiday-themed greeting animation. Your portrait is placed inside a cozy Christmas living room with soft lights, a decorated tree, and glowing ornaments. A magical holiday card unfolds at the center of the scene, revealing illustrated pages and warm seasonal vibes. The result looks like a personalized Christmas greeting being delivered directly to the viewer.

How does the Christmas Card Delivered effect work?

Upload a clear portrait photo, and Flux AI automatically reconstructs a Christmas-themed environment around your image. The system extracts your face, integrates soft festive lighting, adds sparkles and warm highlights, and animates an unfolding holiday card in front of you. No editing is required—Flux AI handles all lighting, depth, and compositing. The video is generated in seconds and delivered ready to download or share.

What kind of photo should I upload?

A clear, front-facing portrait will deliver the best results. Half-body or close-up photos work well, as long as the face is unobstructed and well-lit. Avoid heavily filtered images, dark lighting, or angle-extreme selfies, as these may reduce the quality of lighting reconstruction. Smiling photos tend to look especially warm and festive once combined with the Christmas scene.

Will the effect change how I look?

No. Flux AI preserves your natural facial features and identity. The system enhances the environment around you—adding glow, warmth, sparkles, and Christmas lighting—but does not alter your face or transform your appearance. You remain the center of the video, simply placed inside a cozy holiday setting.

What can I do with the generated Christmas video?

You can send it as a holiday greeting, share it on social media, attach it to Christmas messages, or use it as a digital card for friends and family. The glowing card animation makes it feel like a personal, heartfelt holiday message being delivered straight to your loved ones. It’s a simple and delightful way to spread festive cheer.

Are there any effect limitations?

A few minor limitations exist. Low-resolution images or overly cropped portraits may reduce facial clarity. Accessories like hats or glasses may interact unpredictably with the dynamic lighting. In rare cases, the glow around the unfolding card may appear softer than expected. Overall, the effect performs reliably when a clear portrait is provided.

Does this effect support group photos?

This effect is optimized for single-person images. When a group photo is uploaded, Flux AI typically selects one main subject to feature within the Christmas scene. For best visual consistency and a cleaner composition, we recommend using a solo portrait.

Are my photos safe?

Yes. Your photo is processed securely and used only to generate your Christmas video. Flux AI does not store, reuse, or share your images, and no human ever views your upload. All processing occurs in a fully encrypted environment to ensure complete privacy.
