Firefly video don't process animation prompts

It's not really a third-end bug as much as a "policy" bug.

 

Firefly video refuses to process prompts with images of a child, and I can understand that, but I'm trying to make an animated movie and the first frame is actually a *drawn* image, not realistic!

Hello @Exmachina298528763yqv,

Thank you for your message. 

 

As you have discovered, it does not matter if the keyframe has a photo realistic image of a child or an artistic image of a child, it will not use those keyframes for generation. I know this is frustrating for hand drawn images, but this appears to be a hard limitation and I do not expect it to change anytime soon.  I would add that Adobe is not alone in having this type of restriction. The Google models in other platforms have similar restrictions. I tried using your image in Google models on Nightcafe Studio, and the Google models rejected it as well.

 

Note: I am not speaking for Adobe.

Thanks,
