Can I make the Tiny Desk AI video with one photo?

Yes. With one photo you sing lead: the band shot, your close-up with the long note and the laugh, and the sax solo, with the band from our example video around you. Each friend you add replaces one of them.

What one photo gets you

  • You in the lead singer's close-up, the biggest part.
  • The keys, the sax and two backing singers played by our example band.
  • The same 15 seconds, 9:16, and the same price as with five photos.

The photo to use

Your sharpest selfie: face toward the camera, chest up, even light, no sunglasses. Your face fills the screen in the close-up, so sharpness matters (photo tips).

One selfie is enough for a free preview.
