0 / 2 chosenYour face, your vibe. The AI keeps your expression — so pick the mood you want.
- 😎 Too cool for the elevator? Upload a deadpan, unimpressed photo.
- 😁 Can't hide that grin? A smiley pic makes him obviously smitten.
- 🎧 Main-character energy: Your expression = your scene. Choose wisely.
A GOOD PORTRAIT MAKES A DIFFERENCE
- One face per photo, facing the camera.
- Good light, sharp, no heavy filters.
- Nothing covering the face: no sunglasses, hands, masks, phones.
- Use a different photo for each person (two different people works best).
- Recommended: at least 720px wide, JPG/PNG/HEIC, under 10MB.
- Your expression carries over — cool face = cool scene, big smile = smitten scene.
Selecting files starts locally. After email login and consent, portraits are uploaded for checks and your render. Upload cleanup begins after 30 days, with active jobs allowed to finish first.

Four casting ideas and their limits
Two friends
Cast two consenting adult friends as Listener and Speaker. Two separate portraits are enough; no elevator footage is needed.
A couple
Use one portrait per consenting adult partner. The same two roles apply; expressions and likeness can vary.
Full scene: what to expect
The current product generates one fixed elevator encounter. There is no separate full-scene editor, extra cast, or movie-length mode.
Person + pet: an idea only
Pet photos are not supported. Both input slots require adult human portraits; a person-and-pet version is only a creative idea, not an available option.
I Love The Smiths AI FAQ
What movie is 'I love the Smiths' from?
It comes from the elevator scene in (500) Days of Summer (2009), where a shared musical taste starts a conversation.
What song is playing in the elevator scene?
“There Is a Light That Never Goes Out” by The Smiths is heard through headphones in the film. Our generated clips do not include that recording or its lyrics.
How many photos do I need?
Exactly two separate portraits, each showing one consenting adult: one Listener and one Speaker.
Will the video keep my expression?
Yes — the AI follows the photo you upload. Deadpan photo → cool, unbothered vibe. Smiling photo → happy, smitten vibe. Want a different mood? Just upload a different photo.
What photos work best?
A clear, front-facing photo of one person, well lit, with nothing covering the face. Selfies are fine.
Can I use the same person for both roles?
You can, but use two different photos. Two different people gives the most reliable result.
Is it free?
Browsing and selecting photos with local size checks are free and do not require signup. Browser face checks run where supported. Free video previews are disabled. Full generation requires login and purchased credits; packs are one-time purchases.
Is there a watermark?
Paid output has no site watermark. AI may still introduce visual artifacts; review the entire result before sharing.
Can I make a silent version?
Yes. Select Silent version before generating to mute the exported video. Otherwise the clip uses the scene plate soundtrack.
Is this an official movie product?
No. This independent fan tool is not affiliated with the film or The Smiths. Use consenting adults and label shared clips as AI-generated.
