How to put yourself in a music video with AI
Stepping into a real music video scene versus making a new video for your own song: how each works, the photo you need and the rules.

Pick the scene, then give the AI one clear photo of yourself. A recast tool rebuilds that scene with you in the performer's place, copying the moves and the camera, and the song goes on the finished clip. On this site the scene is the party from Drake's "Burning Bridges": one photo in, 15 seconds out, vertical 9:16 with the original sound, in about 4 to 15 minutes. If you want a new video for your own song instead, that is a different tool: a music video generator that takes your audio.

Two different things people mean
Most Google results for "put yourself in a music video" are generators that make visuals for your own song (checked 19 October 2026). If you want to be inside a video you already know, look for a recast or motion transfer tool instead.
| You want | Tool type | You upload | You get |
|---|---|---|---|
| To step into a scene from a real video | Recast or motion transfer | One photo, sometimes a clip of you | The same moves and framing, with you as the performer |
| A new video for your own song | AI music video generator | Your track, a prompt or images | New visuals cut to your audio |
| Your face on the singer, nothing else | Face swap | A face photo and the video | The original body and outfit with your face |
Step by step: into a real music video scene
- 1
Choose a scene with one clear lead and a camera that stays on them. Walk-ups to the lens and party scenes work; wide group dances are harder.
- 2
Use a sharp photo of you alone, waist up or full length, facing the camera.
- 3
Check what the tool keeps: the moves, the room, the sound. Some return a silent clip.
- 4
Generate, then watch the first second and every turn for the original performer leaking back in.
- 5
Post with the AI label switched on, and attach the song from the app's library if the clip gets muted.
What the Burning Bridges version does
Here the scene is fixed: 2:42 to 2:57 of the official video, with the hand to the lens, the finger guns, the collar tug, the sweep across the table and the wave with the cup. Your photo is first redrawn as a standing, full-length portrait so your build and clothes carry over, and your original photo guides the face. A video model renders a new clip with you in the lead and the song as a guide, then the original sound goes back on. You download one file with sound and one silent copy.
Every Google account can try a free 2-second preview. A full clip is 10 credits at 480p (the $9.99 Single pack) or 22 at 720p.
Can I put myself in any music video?
Not on this site: it makes this one scene. Other tools let you upload any clip, but the footage and the song still belong to someone else. Use your own face or an adult who said yes, keep public figures out, and expect apps to mute posts that carry a commercial song from outside their music library. More in is it allowed to post a Drake AI video?.
Getting a result that looks like you
- One person in the photo. With a group, the model has to guess which face is yours.
- Light on your face and no beauty filter: the face is copied from the photo.
- Wear what you want to wear in the video. The clothes come from the photo too.

Questions guests ask
Can you put yourself in an AI video?
Yes. Upload a clear photo to a recast or photo-to-video tool and it renders you performing the moves of a reference clip. Here the clip is the Burning Bridges party scene.
Can AI make me a music video for my song?
Yes, with a music video generator that takes your audio. This site does not do that: it recreates one scene from Drake's video.
Are AI music videos legal?
Making one for yourself is generally fine; posting can touch the rights to the song, the footage and the faces. Use your own face, label it as AI and add the song from the app's library. This is general information, not legal advice.
How long does it take?
About 4 to 15 minutes here, and you can leave the page while it renders.
