What Change pose alters and what it is briefed to keep
Change pose takes one image of a model wearing the product and redraws the person in the pose chosen: standing, a three-quarter turn, walking towards the camera, hands on hips or in pockets, arms crossed, leaning, sitting, looking away, or an upper-body close-up. Apart from the format and the resolution, the pose is the only setting. The tool has no model, background or garment option, and the delivered image is a single photograph of one person.
Everything else is briefed to stay: the same person, the same garment, the same background and the same light. For the garment the brief is specific. Prints, logos and lettering, the number and position of buttons, zips and pockets, the weave, ribbing and pattern scale, the colours, and the cut with its sleeve length, hem length and collar are all named as things to keep, and nothing is to be added to a plain garment. This is an instruction to the tool, not a promise of an identical copy.
When Change pose fits and when another tool fits better
Change pose is the right tool when an on-model image already exists and the product page needs more of it: a walking frame beside the standing one, a seated view, a closer crop of the upper body. It starts from a delivered Herofab image or from any other image of a model wearing the product, so the product photo does not have to be uploaded again. Leaning and sitting poses are briefed to use a wall, railing, step or chair already in the scene, or a plain surface or stool on a studio backdrop.
When the work starts from the product photo, Virtual try-on is the more direct route: several poses of the same model can be ordered together there, and the model, the background and a front and back view are chosen in the same step. A back view is a setting of Virtual try-on, not one of the poses. For a new aspect ratio without a new pose, Extend frame widens the scene around the original image, and for a close view of one detail such as a collar or a cuff, Detail shot frames that area.
What to check in a new pose before publishing
Place the new image beside the source and compare the garment first. Poses that turn the body away from the camera are where pockets, buttons and prints are hardest to keep, so count the buttons, find each pocket and read any lettering. Arms crossed and hands in pockets cover part of the garment by nature: a chest print hidden behind the forearms belongs to the pose, while a print that has moved or changed is a reason to generate again or to choose another pose.
Then look at the person and the frame. The brief asks for one anatomically correct person, so hands, fingers and feet deserve a glance, most of all where hands rest on hips or disappear into pockets. Sleeve and hem length should match the source once the change of posture is taken into account: a seated pose folds a skirt or a coat at the lap without making it shorter. The background and the direction of the light should read as the same place as in the first image.
