@Pawel Nosal The Animated version brings such a fun, lively energy to the cover that perfectly captures the holiday spirit

animated play by emotion
Pawel's avatar
Yes, exactly. The first option feels more emotional, while the static one leaves more room for imagination and interpretation.

going with static
the animation looks scary
Pawel's avatar
Good point! We expect naturally poster to be static, and when it moves it is kinda scary indeed :)

Animated brings the holiday vibe to life - that movement adds energy perfect for music promotion! Static feels more classic poster art. What platform is this for? 🎵✨
Pawel's avatar
It is made as a cover, I guess static makes more sense when I think about it. It is made for SUNO AI holiday contest.

Impressive

Static for me too — it feels more iconic and lets the illustration + type really shine. 
Pawel's avatar
good point! Thank you. :)

AI animations always seem a bit uncanny valley to me... static all the way for this one!
Pawel's avatar
Yes, I think animations are fine. It just gets quirky when they’re applied to real people, as it can come across as a bit creepy. No one expects a poster to move, so when it does, like in the example above, it creates an off vibe. :) Thanks for your feedback.
