The scene and movement

The setting is the Tiny Desk reference scene. An office concert moves between a singer and musicians around a keyboard. Your generation uses the prepared opening 10 seconds, so later moments in a full-length example may fall outside your result.

This preset replaces 2 designated roles with 2 separate reference images. Match the labels to the original clip and keep supporting subjects unchanged.

The role your photo replaces

For this template, your photo defines image 1: lead singer in the close-ups; image 2: keyboard player in the band shots. Use the editor preview to locate that role before uploading. The photo guides appearance, hair or fur, body proportions, and visible clothing; it does not record a new voice.

Use one photo per labeled role. Subjects without an upload slot keep their reference appearance.

Prepare a useful appearance reference

Upload 2 separate photos, one clear subject per image, in the labeled order. image 1: lead singer in the close-ups; image 2: keyboard player in the band shots. Do not combine several people into one photo.

Keep one subject clearly separated from the background. For Tiny Desk, pay particular attention to the subject silhouette, facial identity, costume layers and stability across the reveal. Include the body and outfit details that will be visible in those moments; avoid a collage or a group photo.

What follows the prepared reference

The camera path, scene order, supporting cast and props come from the prepared clip. The instructions preserve the Tiny Desk reference scene and the movement described above. Replacing the appearance does not add separate controls for a new location, a different prop or another choreography.

Review these moments in the result

Play the entire result at normal speed, then pause around the subject silhouette, facial identity, costume layers and stability across the reveal. Check the same identity before and after a turn or overlap. A strong first frame does not guarantee that every later frame is consistent.

Length, credits and sound

The prepared generation is 10 seconds and costs 2 credits. The collected full reference is about 10 seconds. Previews can be longer and are free to play. The quote on Generate applies to the prepared clip, not to every second in the example gallery. Short-template estimates on this guide use 720p; choose 480p in the studio to see its lower quote. Long-template estimates use fixed 480p pricing.

The original audio is kept separately and merged into the finished video. Preview with the sound controls before creating.

Questions about Tiny Desk

Can I change every character in Tiny Desk?

This version of Tiny Desk uses one appearance photo for image 1: lead singer in the close-ups; image 2: keyboard player in the band shots. Other characters keep the reference appearance. A full example may show multiple recast people, but this workspace does not provide an independent upload for each supporting role.

Do I need to write the Tiny Desk prompt?

The editor already includes instructions for this scene and the intended replacement role. You can adjust appearance details before creating. If you replace the video, review the instructions as well so they describe your new reference.

What matters most for Tiny Desk?

Focus on the subject silhouette, facial identity, costume layers and stability across the reveal. Clear input photos help, but fine contact, fast movement and occlusion may still vary. Review the finished video with sound before deciding to download or make another paid attempt.

Does opening this page spend credits?

No. Browsing, playing previews, and selecting a template are free. Credits are used only when you submit a new generation.
