How to Remix This Template in Magic Hour
You can use this template as‑is or treat it as a starting point to build your own K‑pop dance face swap series. To remix it inside Magic Hour:
- Start with Face Swap Video
Go to Face Swap Video. Upload your source dance clip (e.g., a licensed or original K‑pop style performance) or use one from your library. - Upload your selfie or portrait

Select the face in the dance video you want to replace and apply the swap. Magic Hour’s AI automatically tracks the dancer through the entire clip. - Polish visuals (optional)
If you want to refine the image quality or adjust the look:- Sharpen and enhance with the AI Image Upscaler.
- Adjust or clean up specific frames using the AI Image Editor.
- Remove distractions from thumbnails or promo stills via Remove Object From Photo or the Watermark Remover.
- Export for social
Download your final face swap dance video and publish it to TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts, or other platforms. You can also generate GIF snippets using the Face Swap GIF or AI GIF Generator for memes and reactions.

- Use high‑quality source images
Aim for sharp, well‑lit, front‑facing photos without heavy filters or obstructions. If you need clean inputs, the AI Photo Generator can help you generate consistent, studio‑style portraits. - Match vibe and styling
Face swaps look more natural when your hairstyle, angle, and lighting roughly match the original dancer. Tools like the AI Face Editor, AI Selfie Generator, or AI Clothes Changer can help you create a look closer to the original performance (e.g., streetwear, stage outfits). - Optimize for platform
Cut multiple versions (6–15 seconds) for TikTok and Reels, and slightly longer edits for YouTube Shorts. You can generate subtitles and auto‑captions with the Auto Subtitle Generator to improve retention and accessibility. - Respect rights and policies
When using real people’s faces (influencers, public figures, or clients), ensure you have the necessary permissions and follow platform guidelines on AI‑generated content and deepfakes. Many creators pair AI experimentation with clear labeling (e.g., “AI face swap”) to maintain trust and transparency.
