Glasses and Fairy Lights
Fairy lights may leave one reflection in the glasses. The eyes stay visible through both lenses.
Glasses and fairy lights can share a frame if the eyes stay visible. One reflection in the lenses is enough, and it should match the string behind the host. A second glare that hides an eye is a failed still. The frames are part of the locked face for this reel. Do not remove them halfway through the week unless you mean a new look, approved again. Approve the still before motion. If the host looks real, say the host is AI, and leave the platform label visible. Keep the thin frames as part of the lock, place the string so each lens gets one small reflection, and approve the still only when both irises show. Keep one speaker. A practical reel is 15–45 seconds. The first 3 seconds show the watchmaker's eyes through both lenses and say the shop line. Reject a second glare that hides an eye, two different blobs, or a white disc where a lens should be. If the face or the voice could be mistaken for a real person, the caption must say it is AI, and the platform label stays visible.
One reflection, same in both lenses
A small bright shape from the fairy lights may sit in each lens, in the same place. Two different blobs mean two light sources, or a broken pair of glasses. If the reflection covers the pupil, move the string in the description or dim it. You are keeping the lights, not sacrificing the eyes. Match the reflection in both lenses, and move or dim the string if it covers a pupil. The first 3 seconds show one shared glint and say the shop line. Reject two light sources pretending to be one pair of glasses before you post.
Eyes first
You should see both irises. A white lens is a mirror, not eyewear. Check the still at phone size, because a desktop zoom hides a lost eye. The face around the frames stays the locked face: same eyes, same bridge of the nose. Glasses do not excuse a new head. Check both irises at phone size, and compare the eyes and the bridge of the nose with the lock. In the first 3 seconds the eyes are visible and the voice says the line. Do not post a white mirror in place of the eyewear.
Lock the frames with the face
Treat the frames as part of this outfit lock. A later still that deletes them, or swaps them for sunglasses, is a different host until you approve it as a deliberate change. Life photos reuse the person with the eyes visible. Label the realistic face as AI, and leave the platform label in place. Treat a deleted pair of frames, or a swap to sunglasses, as a new host until you approve it on purpose. In the first 3 seconds, viewers see the same frames and hear the shop line. Throw out a later still that erases the glasses before the file goes up.
A worked example
A watchmaker wears thin glasses beside a short string of lights. Each lens shows one small reflection, and both eyes are easy to see. The face matches the lock, including the frames. A still where one lens turned into a white disc is rejected. The caption says the host is AI. Seat the watchmaker beside the short string, confirm one reflection per lens, and reject the white disc. The first 3 seconds show both eyes and say the shop line. One speaker, 15–45 seconds. If the face looks real, the caption says the host is AI, and the platform label stays in place.
Before you post
- Keep one matching reflection.
- Leave both eyes visible.
- Match the locked face, and label the host as AI.
Where Scro fits
Scro locks the face, frames included, and lets you approve the still before motion so the eyes are checked first. Life photos can reuse that host. Change clothes only when you intend to. Export 9:16, and label the realistic face as AI. Check the eyes before motion, frames included, then export 9:16. The first 3 seconds show the glasses with both irises visible and say the shop line. Reject a hidden eye. If the face or voice could be mistaken for a real person, the caption says it is AI.
Keep the eyes visible. Finished samples are on the examples page.
