How to post your Tiny Desk AI video on TikTok

Download the 9:16 MP4 with the sound in it and post it as is, or post the silent copy with TikTok's own sound. Turn on TikTok's AI-generated label: the people in it are real, the video isn't.

Steps

  1. Download the MP4 (with sound) or the silent copy.
  2. On TikTok tap +, pick the video. With the silent copy, add the trend sound and start it at 0:01 (details).
  3. Under More options, turn on the AI-generated content label. Reels and Shorts have their own AI labels too.
  4. Tag the friends in it, and post.

Captions and hashtags

Short works best: "our tiny desk debut", the score after a loss, or tag who's on the sax. Hashtags people use: #tinydesk #tinydeskai #outstanding #aitrend.

Posting: questions

Should I label my Tiny Desk video as AI?

Yes. Turn on TikTok's AI-generated label (or the Reels and Shorts one). It's a made video of real people, so say so.

Does the video have a watermark?

No. Full videos have no watermark; only the free preview does.

Make yours, then post it tonight.
