01 / The original setting
Your portrait in a desk-side band video
Upload one portrait to replace the lead at the red keyboard. The original video guides the room, shots and performance; AI likeness and movements can vary. This still illustration is band inspiration, not a generated result.
02 / One focused preset
Tiny Desk AI and the Outstanding meme
Make an Outstanding Tiny Desk AI video with your portrait in the lead role. MiniMax H3 uses the original clip to guide the 15-second sequence. Face likeness and shot matching can vary.

How to make a Tiny Desk AI video
Prepare a photo, check the fixed settings and create your take.
Upload one portrait
Choose a sharp head-and-shoulders photo with an unobstructed face. Use a photo you have permission to upload.
Confirm the preset and credits
Sign in and check the 110-credit cost. The preset uses MiniMax H3, 15 seconds, 768P and vertical 9:16. The original video soundtrack is restored after generation.
Generate and review
Follow the saved task in My creations while it renders. Watch the full clip and inspect the face, hands and instruments before sharing. Downloads follow your account plan.
04 / A clearer starting photo
Choose a photo for the lead role
A well-lit portrait gives the model a clearer identity reference.
Show the full face
Keep eyes and hair visible. Avoid sunglasses, masks, heavy filters, tiny faces and overlapping people.
One person per upload
Use JPG, PNG or WebP up to 4 MB. A group photo does not enable multiple casting in this version.
Keep shoulders and hair in frame
Choose a head-and-shoulders portrait with space around the hair and chin. A tight crop or a face partly outside the image leaves more detail for the model to invent.
05 / Review your take
Review your Tiny Desk AI performance
Check the complete fifteen seconds before sharing. AI identity and fine details can vary.
Face and identity
Compare the lead with your portrait at the beginning, middle and end. A clearer input helps, but exact likeness is not guaranteed.
Hands and instruments
Look for extra fingers, warped instruments or unwanted people. Review the whole performance rather than just its reference image.
Picture and sound
Play the complete fifteen-second vertical clip and check its picture and original soundtrack. The model’s audio is discarded, then the full 15 seconds of the original video’s audio are restored at original speed. Downloads follow your existing FastMoro AI account plan.
06 / Put it to use
Tiny Desk AI ideas for your next clip
Use the same single-person preset for a different message or occasion.
A birthday encore
Give the birthday person the lead role using a portrait you have permission to use. Add your greeting after downloading, and label the clip AI-generated.
A personal reaction clip
Use your portrait for a playful desk-band clip in your group chat. Only the lead at the red keyboard is recast; the other band members stay in their original roles.
A team introduction
Introduce one consenting teammate in the desk-side band video. Preview faces, hands and instruments before sharing the finished take.
