Resident Evil 5 Cutscene – Face Swap Video Template

Recreate the intensity of Resident Evil 5 cutscenes with your own cast. This Magic Hour template uses AI-powered face swap video to let you insert yourself, your team, or your characters directly into cinematic survival horror moments inspired by Capcom’s 2009 classic.

Built on Magic Hour’s AI Face Swap technology, this template is ideal for:

  • Creators and streamers who want high-impact intros, memes, or highlight clips

What This Template Does

This “Resident Evil 5 Cutscene” template provides a pre-structured, game-inspired scene where you can instantly:

  • Swap faces on characters in the video with your own, your team’s, or fictional personas
  • Preserve lighting, perspective, and expressions so the swap looks integrated into the dramatic scene
  • Generate share-ready clips for TikTok, YouTube, Twitch, or internal presentations

The look and feel are influenced by Resident Evil 5’s cinematic style: high-contrast lighting, over-the-shoulder framing, and action-heavy character blocking. You bring the faces and narrative; the template handles the heavy lifting on realism.

Resident Evil 5: Context and Visual Style

Resident Evil 5 (Capcom, 2009) is a third-person survival horror game and the fifth mainline entry in the long-running Resident Evil series. It follows Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar confronting a new bioterror threat tied to the Umbrella legacy and antagonist Albert Wesker.

Why this matters for your video:

  • Cinematic real-time cutscenes: The original game used Capcom’s MT Framework engine to render many cutscenes in real time, giving a film-like feel while staying visually consistent with gameplay.
  • Distinct visual language: Tight character framing, strong directional lighting, and steep contrast contribute to the game’s suspenseful tone—perfect for dramatic face swap edits, reaction skits, or narrative experiments.
  • Recognizable tropes: Confrontations with Wesker, tense partner dynamics, and action-heavy set pieces make these scenes ideal for parody, commentary, or marketing riffs.
