A 3D cartoon version of you
The cartoon filter turns a normal photo into a 3D cartoon character, the kind you would expect to see in an animated family movie. Faces get rounder, eyes bigger and expressions friendlier, while hair, clothes and colors keep the feel of the original photo. It is a quick way to make a fun avatar, surprise a friend, or create a cartoon cast of your whole family.
Ideas for your cartoon
- Profile pictures. A cartoon avatar stands out in a list of ordinary headshots and still looks like you.
- Birthday and party invitations. Put the birthday child, as a cartoon, right on the card.
- Gifts. Cartoon portraits of couples, grandparents or pets make a personal print, mug or phone wallpaper.
- Family portraits. One group photo can turn into a cartoon movie poster of the whole family.
Tips for the best cartoon
Use a photo with good, even light and a sharp subject. Faces that look toward the camera give the most expressive results. Big smiles and fun poses carry over well, since cartoon characters are meant to be expressive. Simple backgrounds keep the focus on the character, while a busy background is turned into a cartoon set as well. If you don't love the first version, run the filter again – each run is drawn fresh.
Good to know
The cartoon filter is about 3D characters. For a flat, illustrated look try comic book or pop art, and for Japanese animation try the Anime Filter. All styles live in the AI Photo Filter if you want to compare them on the same picture.
Cartoon styles simplify on purpose, so fine details like text, patterns and small accessories may change or disappear. Results made with free credits carry a small watermark; results made with purchased credits don't.
