AI character swap

Put any character into your video.

Upload a clip and one picture. Brilly swaps the person in your clip for your character, and keeps the moves, the camera and the sound.

  • Your clip's sound stays
  • People, pets and mascots

How to swap a character in a video

Three things to add, then one button. Most swaps are ready in two to three minutes.

  1. 1

    Add your clip

    A video of 4 seconds or more, MP4 or MOV, up to 100 MB. Brilly uses its first 10 seconds. A clip you made in Brilly works too.

  2. 2

    Add the character

    A photo of a person, a pet or a mascot. A picture of just the character on a plain background works best. Say what's in it, so the swap looks right.

  3. 3

    Say who, then make it

    With more than one person in the clip, say who to replace, like "the woman on the right". Pick Standard or Best and press Make the edit.

Optional. It helps the swap look right.

Leave it empty to replace the most prominent person.

QualityCredits for your 5-s clip

A failed or refused edit costs nothing.

One clip. Any character.

A person, a pet or a mascot, each from a single picture. Every example says what was picked and what it cost.

It still looks like your clip.

  • Same moves, same camera

    The motion, the timing and the framing all come from your clip. Only the person changes.

  • Your sound stays

    The voice, the music and the room are your clip's own. Best puts the original track back after the swap.

  • The price before you press

    14 credits for 5 seconds on Standard, 19 on Best. The button shows it before anything is made.

  • Nothing to pay if it fails

    A failed or refused edit costs nothing, and so does one that comes back unchanged.

Made for the ads you already run.

Keep the shot that works. Change who's in it.

  • A new face, same take

    Try the script that already sells with a different presenter for each audience, without booking another shoot.

  • Your mascot in the trend

    Film the trend once on your phone, then put your brand's character in it. No animation studio.

  • You, without filming yourself

    Take a clip you made or bought, add your own photo, and you're the one in it.

Then keep going with the same clip

Questions

At least 4 seconds. Brilly uses the first 10 seconds of a longer clip. MP4 or MOV, up to 100 MB, up to 4K and 60 frames a second.

Yes. The voice, music and background sound are your clip's own. Best puts the original track back after the swap. A silent clip stays silent.

Yes. Choose what's in the picture (a person, a dog, a cat or a cartoon character). For pets and cartoons Brilly picks Best, which handles them better.

The one you describe in "Who to replace", like "the man in the blue shirt" or "the woman on the right". Leave it empty and Brilly replaces the most prominent person.

No. A face swap changes only the face. A character swap replaces the whole person, clothes and all, with your character, and keeps the moves.

Yes, if you have the right to use their likeness: yourself, a colleague who agreed, a model you hired. That's your responsibility. Brilly never makes sexual content of real people, and refuses clips with real-looking children in them. See our AI use rules.

A failed or refused edit costs nothing, and so does one that comes back unchanged. If you don't like a result, try a clearer picture, Best, or a more exact "Who to replace", and make another take. Each take is charged.

Yes. It's saved in My creations, ready to download for your ads, reels and posts.

Your clip. Any character.
