Turn Real Footage into Claymation FAQ
Building with it? Read the Turn Real Footage into Claymation API docs.
What happens to logos and text in the clip?
They become blank clay shapes, so no brand names carry over.
Can I choose the colours?
Yes. Add a look note such as bright pastels, earthy tones or a 1970s palette.
Why was my clip refused?
Clips that show real brand logos, packaging or posters can be refused by the video model’s copyright filter, and the edit is not billed when that happens. Use footage without visible brands.
Can I run it from my own code?
Yes. It runs through the Pixelflow API with the same inputs: submit a run, then poll for the result.
