The Prompt
Act as a cinematic AI video director. Using the attached photo as the exact 
face reference for the driver, generate a photorealistic 8-second vertical 
video (9:16, 24fps, subtle natural film grain, warm cinematic color grade).

Shot 1 (0–3s): A {car} drives slowly toward camera along a {location}, 
golden-hour sunlight, shallow depth of field, the driver faintly visible 
through the windshield.

Hard glitch-morph transition.

Shot 2 (3–8s): Interior medium shot. The person from the reference photo is 
now behind the wheel, wearing dark sunglasses, one arm resting casually on 
the window sill, head tilted slightly with a calm, confident expression. 
Slow subtle camera push-in. Soft sunlight flares through the glass. No 
dialogue ambient engine hum only.

Keep the face, skin tone, and features from the reference photo unchanged 
throughout both shots.

Which model runs this best

Veo 3, because most of the free text/image to video generators can't generate this kind of 8 seconds video. Google Veo 3 have excellent ability to generate the videos like this. Kling, Kling can do it too.

Turns a single photo into a two-shot cinematic driving video: the car approaching, then a glitch cut to you as the driver.

How To Use

  1. Upload one clear, front-facing, well-lit photo as the reference image
  2. Replace {car} with the make/model/color you want
  3. Replace {location} with the backdrop you want behind the car
  4. Generate in 9:16 for Reels/TikTok, or switch to 16:9 for YouTube

Pro Tips

  • Use a photo with no sunglasses or hat on the source face the model adds sunglasses itself, and a clean source face locks better across the cut
  • Front-facing, chin-level photos hold identity through the transition far better than angled or low-quality ones
  • The "Comment 'Car'" caption in trend videos is added afterward in your editing app it's not part of the AI generation

FAQs

Just one photo, VEO 3, Kling, Runway, and Luma all support single-image face reference for this kind of clip.
