Zombie AI Video: Generate a Love Story from Your Photos

Prepare two separate portraits or one photograph containing both subjects. Use JPG or PNG files no larger than 10 MB each. The upload validator requires each side to be at least 300 pixels, neither side to exceed 8,192 pixels, and the width-to-height ratio to fall between 0.4 and 2.5.

Those limits determine whether a file is accepted; they do not guarantee likeness. Prefer clearly visible faces and avoid photographs where a hand, sunglasses, or another person obscures important features. Start with uncomplicated portraits rather than a crowded group photo.

You also need an account, enough credits for the displayed quote, and permission to use the photographs. The current template requires the people pictured to be adults.

1. Open the template and assign the roles

Open the AI Zombie Video Generator. Select Two photos for separate portraits or One photo of both for a shared image.

With separate photographs, Photo 1 is the human survivor and Photo 2 becomes the zombie. Use the swap control if those roles are reversed. With a shared photograph, the person on the left is the survivor and the subject on the right becomes the zombie.

For a pet story, select A pet. Use your adult portrait first and your pet second, or keep that left-to-right arrangement in a shared image. The pet preset requests a gentle reunion without a weapon.

2. Choose a story or a transformation

Select Zombie Story for the emotional reunion. The adult-human preset requests a ruined street, recognition, a lowered weapon, and an embrace without a shot being fired. At 10 seconds or longer, it also requests a warm memory of the same subjects embracing in a sunlit wheat field.

Choose the transformation effect when you want a continuous shot focused on the loved one's gradual undead appearance. It does not request the memory cut.

These are preset directions, not editable scene-by-scene controls. Unlike a general prompting workflow, this version does not offer a free-text prompt box. You choose the cast and settings while the template supplies the direction.

3. Set length, framing, quality, and sound

Available durations are 5, 10, 12, and 15 seconds. The default is 12 seconds, 720p, vertical 9:16 framing, with sound enabled. Choose 16:9 for widescreen or 1:1 for square framing when those suit your intended layout.

Use at least 10 seconds if the memory scene matters. The five-second story requests the reunion without that additional scene. Selecting a longer duration gives the preset more room, but does not guarantee every requested action will appear correctly.

Sound requests a newly generated piano-and-strings score and environmental effects, without speech. It is not the fixed song heard in a reference clip. Choose Silent if you plan to add your own soundtrack afterwards.

4. Review credits and submit once

Check the amount beside This video, then confirm your permission to use the photographs. Resolution, duration, and sound affect the quote. Choose Put us in the video to submit.

Save the task ID. If submission becomes uncertain, use Check status or contact support rather than repeatedly starting new generations. A connection error does not necessarily mean the provider received nothing.

5. Review the result and download the MP4

Check the saved task on the template page or in Video history. When it succeeds, preview the clip and choose Download your MP4.

Watch the faces through the embrace, inspect hands and body contact, and listen for distracting audio. If you selected the longer story, check whether the memory cut remains understandable. Add captions or replace the soundtrack in a separate editor if needed; those are not built-in timeline controls here.

The current template uses credits rather than a fixed cash price per clip. At 720p, the rate is 12 credits per second for silent output or 15 with sound. At 1080p, it is 15 credits per second silent or 20 with sound.

For example, the default 12-second, 720p video with sound costs 180 credits. A five-second, silent 720p clip costs 60 credits. Check the live quote before submitting, since rates may change. Review the available credit plans separately; this tutorial does not promise a free zombie generation.

If the roles look wrong, check the upload order before changing other settings. If the likeness drifts, try clearer portraits with fewer obstructions. When a short clip feels rushed, move from five seconds to a longer story duration rather than expecting the memory sequence to fit.

Change one factor at a time so you can judge what helped. A new attempt uses credits again. Also distinguish reference previews from evidence: the template currently identifies its example videos as external references, not outputs generated by this implementation. Use your own completed clip to assess its suitability.

Can I generate a zombie AI video from one photo?

Yes, if that photograph contains both subjects. Choose One photo of both, with the survivor on the left and the future zombie on the right. A single portrait is not the shared-photo workflow.

Can I make the characters speak?

This template requests no speech. Its sound option covers score and atmosphere, not dialogue or uploaded narration. For a separate speaking-video workflow, explore the lip sync generator.

Will a failed request return my credits?

The implementation returns reserved credits for confirmed failed generations. An uncertain submission remains pending for investigation instead of being treated as a confirmed failure. Keep the task ID and check its status before resubmitting.

Start with clear, permitted photographs, assign the roles carefully, and choose a duration that fits your story. Review the credit quote before generating, then inspect the actual result before sharing. Open the zombie video template when your photographs are ready.
