ElfYourself is a great web app to create some fun free Christmas videos for yourself, your family, or your friends. You can upload up to 5 pictures and fit the faces onto some elfs. Then you choose your dance style and create the video.
The whole thing is quickly done and a lot of fun to watch. You can share the videos on some social sites (e.g., Facebook) and even download the video if you are willing to pay for it (the cost is just a couple of bucks).
Details
The application was introduced in 2016 and according to Wikipedia, about 1.5 billion elfs have been created so far. The web application is not continuously available. Because it’s content is related to Christmas, you will need to wait for the next season to start. If you click on the button “Instant Access” the website will open and a countdown will tell you when the next season will start (should be November 1st).
The application became a phenomenon and for a good reason. If you play a little bit around with it you will be able to create hilarious videos for yourself and your family. Click on the picture below to see some people’s videos on YouTube.
From my own experience, I can tell that you can have a lot of fun with your family just playing around with the app. Just upload some pictures of your family members (they should show a good front picture of the face). Then adjust the faces to match the elf’s face part. And now play with the different video styles that are available. At least in my family, everyone was rolling on the floor laughing. 🙂
A word of caution
You can create great funny videos and download those videos. However, you should ask everyone whose face appears in the video before uploading it to YouTube or other sites. Not everyone likes it when personal videos are shared with the whole world.
Tip for Security: For downloading videos we recommend using a browser that provides protection against deceptive content and dangerous software and a good virus scanner.
