About the Kids Drawing to Life trend
Kids drawing to life is the format where a child’s drawing is held up in the corner of the screen while a real, slightly goofy version of it walks around in the scene below. The template keeps the same camera, timing and sound as the original clip and brings the drawing in your upload to life instead, with the proportions, colours and odd little details of the drawing kept.
