Tiny Desk AI Tutorial: Make the Video

Last updated:

Most tiny desk concert outstanding ai tutorials chain three apps: an image model to put a face on a frame, a video model to animate it, and CapCut to add the song back. This tutorial does it in one place, and your video keeps the real performance sound.

1. Pick the right photo

Use a recent, sharp photo of one adult where the face is clearly visible and looks toward the camera. Daylight or even indoor light works best. Head and shoulders in frame is ideal. Avoid sunglasses, hats that hide the face, heavy filters and group photos.

1Your photo

Best results: one adult, face clearly visible and facing the camera, even light, head and shoulders in frame. Avoid group photos, sunglasses and heavy filters. Your video keeps the original performance sound.

2. Upload and get your free preview

Upload the photo in the generator, tick the consent box (you are 18+ and the photo is you or an adult who agreed) and continue with Google. In about a minute you see a free preview frame of yourself behind the Tiny Desk mic.

3. Unlock the full video

If the preview looks like you, unlock the 12-second video from $7.90. The AI replaces the lead singer in a close-up from the "Outstanding" performance and keeps the original sound. It usually takes 4–6 minutes; we email you when it is ready.

4. Post it

Download the vertical MP4 and upload it to TikTok, Reels or Shorts. The sound is already in the file. Keep the AI label on and tag it with #tinydesk and #outstanding so people find it.

Making a team or group version

Make one video per person, each from their own photo and with their OK, then stitch the clips together in CapCut or with TikTok's multi-clip editor.

If it does not look right

Try a sharper, front-facing photo first. If a finished video still does not look like you, email yaohongan20@qq.com and we refund you.
