AI character swap examples
Take a look at a few recasts made with Morphic Recast. The small photo shows who each new person came from.
Original
The original micro drama shot is on the left, with three possible leads beside it. The coat, the turn from the window, the line and the rain light match in every take, so the casting call comes down to who carries the scene.
Recasting a whole project? Let's build your custom workflow.
Talk to us about a custom Recast workflow for your micro dramas, films or ads. Share your format, your cast and your volume, and we'll design it with you so every episode or cut gets the right cast, with each character kept consistent.
Swap a character in three steps
- 01
Open Morphic Recast
Sign up and open the Recast tool on a free-flowing, infinite visual canvas. It is ready for a clip and your cast photos.
- 02
Add the clip and the new cast
Upload one shot up to 30 seconds long. Add one clear, front-facing photo of each person you want on screen.
- 03
Name the swap, pick a take
Say who replaces whom, such as the man on the left. Ask for a few versions and compare them side by side.
What teams use AI character swap for
Test a cast before you commit
Recast one key scene with three possible leads and watch the same performance on each face. A casting call settles in an afternoon, before a whole season is built around one choice.
Recast one ad for every market
Keep the edit, the product shots and the timing, and change who is on screen for each audience. One finished spot becomes a set of market versions, ready for dubbing.
Turn stand-ins into final characters
Block a scene with whoever is available, then recast the stand-ins as the characters you designed. The blocking and camera work stay, so pitch reels and previz read like the real thing.
Change one person, keep the scene
In a dialogue or group shot, recast only the character who needs to change. Everyone without a photo stays as filmed, so a late casting change never means regenerating the scene.
All on Morphic
Restyle the whole clip
Want a new look instead of new people? Video to video AI changes the style, season or setting while the motion holds.
Move a performance
Motion transfer puts the movement from one clip onto a character image in that image's own scene.
Dub the recast clip
Take the new version into another language, with translated dialogue and lips matched to the new words.
Keep a character consistent
Reference sheets and saved References carry one face through every shot, so a recast lead holds across episodes.
Give the new lead new lines
Lip sync matches a face to fresh audio, so a recast character can deliver a rewritten or translated line.
Build the micro drama around your cast
The micro drama generator turns a script into vertical episodes, ready for the cast you picked with Recast.
