What should I prepare before starting?

This workflow needs both a face image and a source video. The seed prompt identifies them as @image1 and @video1; attach the corresponding files before generating.

Does this export a GIF directly?

The workflow starts with an edited video clip. Convert the approved segment to GIF in a separate tool and inspect its palette, frame rate, and loop.

What should I check in the generated result?

Check the face throughout the motion, especially blinks, turns, and the loop seam. Keep the original brief or reference beside the output and compare before choosing a version.

Does generation use credits?

Generation uses credits. Check the selected model’s price and your plan before generating. Regenerating a variation also uses credits; begin with a focused brief and review the first result before making more.

Shape the creative brief

Short source clip

Choose a brief action with a clear, visible face.

Reference role

Identify the face reference and the footage that should stay unchanged.

Loop selection

Pick start and end frames that avoid a visible jump.

Two prompts to start with

Use these written examples as a starting point. Adapt the subject and references to your project; generated results will vary.

First direction

@image1 is the permitted face reference. @video1 is a short reaction clip. Replace the face while keeping the original gesture, camera, background, and lighting stable.

Another approach

@image1 is the permitted character reference. @video1 shows a small wave. Keep the wave and framing, replace only the character identity, and preserve the surrounding scene.

Finishing the result

The face-edit workflow produces video. GIF conversion, frame rate, palette, and loop settings require a separate GIF editor.
