Recast an office scene with AI
Morphic Recast swaps the actors in finished footage while keeping the original performance, camera and timing, so an office scene can be recast without a reshoot. Add one photo for each person: the lean over the table, the raised hands and every line land on the same beat, in the same glass room.

A meeting-room argument, recast. Two photos, a new pair. The lean, the raised hands, the glass walls and the dusk light are as shot; play with sound to hear the same argument.

Qué cambia y qué se mantiene
| Cambia | Se mantiene como se rodó |
|---|---|
| Both people: face, hair, age and look | Every line, lean and gesture |
| Their wardrobe, taken from the cast photos | The meeting room, the glass and the framing |
| Only the people you give a photo to | Office light, timing and the recorded sound |
Ejemplos de montaje
A lead change after wrap
One role was recast after the office scenes were shot. Swap that person and keep the other as filmed.
Test the pairing
Try a few pairings in the same argument and see which one carries the tension before you cast.
A cast per market
Shoot a workplace series once, then recast the leads for each region it is sold to.
How do I recast the actors in an office scene without reshooting?
- 01
Upload the office shot
Add one clip up to 30 seconds. For a longer sequence, recast it shot by shot and cut the shots together on the Compose timeline.
- 02
Add a photo per person you recast
One photo for each person you replace, dressed the way they should look on screen. Anyone you give no photo stays exactly as shot.
- 03
Name each swap and run it
Ask Copilot, for example: the woman in the grey blazer becomes the woman in photo 1, the man in the blue shirt becomes the man in photo 2.
¿Solo cambias a una persona? El workflow compartido solo necesita el clip y una foto.

Consent and releases
Recast only footage you hold releases for, and use photos of people who agreed to appear. Every example here uses generated people, not real actors.
When to also dub
The recast keeps the original soundtrack. For new lines or another language, run Morphic Dub on the recast shot so the voices and lips match.
Recast or reshoot
Recasting an office scene skips a new shoot day and calling the cast back, and one take can carry a cast per market. Reshoot only when the action must change.
Review it as a team
Keep the source shot, the cast photos and every take in one project, where teammates in your workspace open the same versions and comment on each.
