How do I make an I Love the Smiths video?
By MimicZip Team · Updated:
Short answer
Upload one photo of each of the two adults, pick the mood, the elevator and the outfit, and MimicZip builds the scene: the listening, the first line, the second line and the doors opening. Check a 5-second bonus preview, then spend 1 credit on the 12-second 720p video.
Putting two people in the elevator scene
- Open the template page. Use one sharp photo of each of the two adults, from the waist up or whole body, looking at the camera. JPG, PNG or WebP, up to 10 MB.
- Pick the mood (Crush by default), the elevator (Metal elevator by default) and the outfit (Your own clothes by default). None of them changes the price.
- Video shape: pick 16:9 for the wide elevator view, or 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts.
- Consent and sign-in. Tick the photo-consent box and log in with Google. Previews arrive inside a pack, so take one if you have no credits.
- Look at the preview. It is watch-only, 5 seconds at 480p, marked PREVIEW. Check both faces staying the same through the two lines.
- Render: 1 credit gives the 12-second 720p MP4 with no watermark, saved in My videos. Add your sound in TikTok.
The listening, the first line, the second line, the doors
The listening (0 to 3 seconds), the first line (3 to 6), the second line (6 to 9) and the doors opening (9 to 12).
The hardest part for the AI is two faces close together in a small mirror-like space while one turns and steps closer, so a small change in a face or a reflection is normal, not a failed render. Treat it as a short clip to watch.
Where it comes from
Save the MP4 or copy a share link from My videos. Our video follows the whole 14-second TikTok by @battos13 from 5 November 2026, shortened to 12 seconds. The sound guide shows how to add your own sound.

Questions people ask
Do I need to write a prompt?
No. The scene, the camera and the order of the beats are set. You provide the photo and choose the options and the format.
Can I close the page while it renders?
Yes. Rendering carries on at our end, and the finished video is saved under your account in My videos.
Which format does the video come in?
Choose 16:9 for a wide view or YouTube, or 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. A bonus preview has the same shape.
