YOUR MOMENT, IN THREE STEPS
How to Make Your Tiny Desk AI Video
- 01
Choose your portrait
Pick a well-lit photo of yourself, or an adult who has given you permission. One clear face is all you need.
- 02
Start your performance
Sign in, add a video credit, and let the band take it from there. No prompt writing or editing setup.
- 03
Keep your moment
Find your performance in My videos. Watch it with sound, download the MP4, and share your AI-made moment.
A GOOD PHOTO GOES A LONG WAY
Choose a Photo That Works
- One person, looking toward the camera.
- A sharp photo with soft, even light.
- Eyes and face visible, without sunglasses.
- A simple portrait works better than a group shot.
A SMALL TREAT. A PERSONAL ENCORE.
Make room for your
main character moment.

See pricingWhat is a Tiny Desk AI video?
An AI Tiny Desk video turns a portrait into an original performance in a desk-band setting, complete with generated music. Watch the example to see the kind of scene you can make.
Can I recreate the Outstanding Tiny Desk AI trend here?
You can make your own take on the desk-band trend here: one portrait becomes an original performance with generated music. The sample shows our style. The original Outstanding recording and exact concert choreography are not included.
Which photo should I use?
Use a sharp photo of one adult with a clearly visible face and even lighting. Use your own portrait or get permission from the person pictured.
Can I use a group photo?
Choose a photo of one person for the lead. The rest of the band is generated as part of the scene.
Do I need a Tiny Desk AI prompt?
No prompt is needed. Upload your portrait; the desk-band performance is already set up. There is no custom prompt field.
Where can I find a finished video?
Your performance lives in My videos. Sign in with the same account to follow its progress, then watch and download it when it is ready.
What if my video fails?
If generation fails, your video credit returns to your account. If you need help with a video or payment, contact us through Support with the task or order ID so we can look it up.
Does my video include audio?
Yes. Your performance includes generated music. Play the example with sound to hear our style. The original Outstanding recording is not included.
Is Tiny Desk AI free?
Making a video is paid. Buy a video credit with a one-time purchase, with no subscription. Check Pricing for the current price and availability.
