Start with the vertical band performance
EasyVideoAI’s Tiny Desk template uses a 9:16 frame and a full performance of about 19.03 seconds. That makes it a practical starting point for a vertical post. Choose your cast in the studio, generate the video and download the completed MP4 before opening your social editor.
The template does not publish directly to TikTok or Instagram. Your completed file remains separate from a social post. You control the caption, cover and publication in the app you use.
Make the cast easy to understand
Choose the person your audience should recognize first for the lead singer, who appears at the opening. A saxophone-only edit puts the reveal later in the clip. Watch the full demonstration before planning a joke that depends on a performer appearing immediately.
For multiple friends, keep one photo per selected role and check the review dialog. Empty slots preserve the original cast. The source performance keeps its camera sequence, so portrait assignment does not reorder the shots or bring every person into one opening frame.
Place text around the performance
Try a brief introduction such as “Our group chat started a band” or “Birthday concert for Maya.” Use a caption that fits your actual cast. Keep text away from the singer’s face, the backing-vocal pair and the saxophone close-up.
Social app controls and caption placement can cover parts of a vertical video. Check the actual post preview on your phone. A caption that looks clear on the first frame may hide a different person after the next camera cut.
Review the completed file before uploading
Choose 480p or 720p in the generation settings and confirm the current quote. Resolution affects the generated output and credits; it does not guarantee additional facial detail from a blurry reference photo. Use a sharp original portrait and keep the downloaded MP4 as your master copy.
- Play the MP4 from start to finish with sound.
- Check every replacement and every person who should stay original.
- Choose a cover frame where the featured face is clear.
- Listen to the social app’s post preview after making any sound edits.
- Describe the post as an AI edit and use any applicable disclosure controls.
Use the source audio deliberately
The finished file contains the source soundtrack restored after visual generation. Adding another song in a social editor can mask that performance. If the edit depends on the source vocal or saxophone moment, listen before choosing extra music.
