III. Guide to Character Types Suitable for Animated Covers
5 Character Types That Work Best With Dynamic Covers
| Character Type | Recommended Dynamic Elements | Example Effect |
| Virtual Girlfriend | Popular dance moves | Half-body framing + trending dance from social media |
| Virtual Idol | Hair motion + particle effects | Confetti falling on stage |
| Knowledge Assistant | Subtle motion + background glow | Glinting glasses and intelligent sparkle |
| Game NPC | Character-specific looping effect | Blade emitting a constant icy aura |
| Emotional Companion | Eye-tracking + breathing motion | Teary eyes sparkling with adoration |
IV. Motion Design Guidelines
Follow visual hierarchy rules to avoid overstimulation. Too many moving parts can overwhelm the viewer.
1. Golden Triangle Rule
Dynamic Elements ≤ 3
Primary Motion Zone: Face/Hands
Secondary Motion Zone: Clothing & Accessories
Background Motion: Gentle glow/Particles
● Bad Example:
Hair flowing + earrings flashing + weapon glowing + background meteors → sensory overload
2. Common Pitfalls to Avoid
● Pitfall #1: Everything moves → No focal point
Fix: Only let the earrings subtly sway
● Pitfall #2: Uncoordinated motion directions → Confused visual
Fix: Unify motion direction, e.g., all effects flow left to right
● Pitfall #3: Fast & jerky motion → Visual fatigue
Fix: Use prompts like "slow movement" for smoother animation
V. Eye-Catching Cover & Title Designs
1. Visual-Text Synergy
● Good Example:
○ Title: Quantum Speed Reading Assistant
○ Cover: Auto-flipping book + data streams in pupils
○ Result: Instantly communicates "high-tech learning companion"
● Bad Example:
○ Title: Quiet & Gentle Boyfriend
○ Cover: Hair wildly flying + cape flapping in the wind
○ Result: Contradictory visuals misrepresent the AI Character's personality
2. Color Psychology Tips
● The Authority: Deep blue coat + glowing gold brooch → boosts professionalism
● Foodie Guide: Orange-red apron + floating ingredients → enhances appetite appeal
● Mysterious Oracle: Hooded shadow + glowing pupils → amps up mystique
3. Creator Evaluation Tips
* A good creator evaluation can instantly spark curiosity and encourage users to start chatting.
Writing Tips:
Highlight the character's backstory; emphasize personality contrasts; leave a hint of scenario-based suspense
