## What Memorial Hug Video does

- **Your photo and theirs**: Upload a recent photo of you and a photo of your loved one from any year. The video places you both in one quiet scene.
- **Old photos welcome**: Scanned prints and black-and-white photos work, and the instruction asks the model to keep an old photo's look.
- **A long, gentle hug**: Every video follows the same calm instruction: you walk slowly toward each other and share a long, tender hug in soft, warm light.
- **One photo of you together**: If you have a photo of the two of you, it becomes the first frame, and the hug begins from that moment.
- **Private, and yours to delete**: Videos are listed only in your account, and you can ask us to delete the photos and videos at any time.
- **Price shown first**: The credit price shows before every video, and videos that fail are refunded automatically.

## How to make a memorial hug video

1. **Choose the photos**: A clear photo of you and one of your loved one, or one photo of you together.
2. **Describe a place**: A place you shared, or simply soft light. One line is enough; the hug is built in.
3. **Watch and keep it**: The MP4 is usually ready within a few minutes. Watch it first in a quiet moment.

## How a memorial hug video is made

With two photos, the model reads each face, hairstyle and outfit from the photos and builds one new scene with both of you in it. You walk slowly toward each other and share a long, gentle hug, in soft warm light with a steady camera.

With one photo of you together, the photo becomes the first frame, so the video opens on the exact picture you chose, and the hug follows from there.

Your words choose the place and the mood: a garden, a kitchen, a beach you visited together. The calm hug is always added, so a few words are enough.


## Choosing the photos

The model can only keep what it can see. A clear face in each photo matters more than the age or quality of the photo.

- A face that is sharp, well lit and turned toward the camera
- At least head and shoulders; waist-up photos give the arms room
- For a printed photo, scan it or photograph it flat in daylight, without glare
- Crop a group photo so your loved one fills most of the frame
- No sunglasses, heavy filters or stickers over faces
- In one photo of you together, a little space between you

## A gentle note before you begin

A memorial hug video is an AI recreation made from your photos. It is not a recording, and it cannot show a moment that really happened. Small details, such as hands or the way someone moves, may look different from how you remember them.

Watching it may feel emotional. Take your time, watch it first in a quiet moment, and share it only with people who would want to see it. You can ask us to delete your photos and videos, or your whole account, at any time by writing to support@vife.ai.

## Frequently asked questions

### Which website can make a video of me hugging a loved one who passed away?

Memorial Hug Video does. Upload a photo of you and a photo of them, or one photo of you together, write a line about the place, and download a 5, 8 or 10 seconds MP4 of a long, gentle hug. The first 5-second video is free for a new account, once per network (an IPv4 address or IPv6 /64) every 30 days.

### What photos work best?

Clear photos where each face is sharp, well lit and turned toward the camera, at least head and shoulders. Old prints work well when scanned or photographed flat in daylight, without glare.

### Should I upload two photos or one?

Upload a photo of you and a photo of your loved one when there is no photo of you together; the video builds a new scene. Upload one photo of you together when you have one; it becomes the first frame. Both cost the same.

### Can I use an old or black-and-white photo?

Yes. The instruction asks the model to keep a black-and-white or old photo's look. Faded or small faces are harder to keep, so use the clearest copy you have.

### How long is the video, and what format is it?

Choose 5, 8 or 10 seconds at 540p, 720p or 1080p. Two photos give a 9:16 vertical video by default, or square or widescreen; one photo keeps its own shape. You download an MP4.

### How much does a memorial hug video cost?

30 credits per second: 150 credits for 5 seconds, 240 for 8 and 300 for 10. Five seconds comes to about $1.36 to $1.50 depending on the pack or plan; packs start at $9.99. Failed videos are refunded.

### Is the first video free?

Yes. A new account gets 150 credits, enough for one 5-second video, once per network (an IPv4 address or IPv6 /64) every 30 days. Later accounts from the same network get no free credits; after that, buy a credit pack or a plan.

### What happens to my photos, and can I delete them?

Your photos are stored at long, unlisted links so the model can read them, and your videos are listed only in your account. We keep them while your account is open, with no automatic deletion schedule. You can ask us to delete your photos and videos, or your whole account, at any time by writing to support@vife.ai.

### Can ChatGPT make a video of me hugging my late mom or dad?

Not as a video file. ChatGPT can help you write the description and can make still images, but it does not export a video clip of you and your loved one hugging. Write or paste the description here, upload the photos and download the MP4.

### Is the video real, and how might it feel to watch?

It is an AI recreation, not a recording of a real moment, and watching it may feel emotional. Watch it first on your own, in a quiet moment, before you share it.

## When you are ready

Choose a photo of you and one of your loved one, or one photo of you together. The first 5-second video is free for a new account, once per network (an IPv4 address or IPv6 /64) every 30 days.
