Video trend
If you found this trend through the clip of a man dressed as Homelander from The Boys telling the camera "you're not that guy, pal", this page explains how that reference becomes your video. The short version: the store, the camera moves, the timing and the audio stay; the person and the costume do not. This template is an unofficial fan-style format and is not connected to The Boys, its studio or its cast.
A man in a blue superhero suit with a red cape, gold shoulder pieces, a gold belt and red gloves faces an offscreen camera operator in a pharmacy as the view tilts from his torso to his face. The clip is itself AI-made. It is shown on the trend page as a reference, not as an Oakgen result.
The bright pharmacy aisles, the low-held phone at the start, the turn into the main aisle, the push-in, the smug pause, the extreme mouth-and-chin close-up and the original audio with its timing. One continuous 9-second vertical take, no cuts.
The suit, cape, shoulder armour, belt and gloves are not part of the template. Your photo replaces the whole person, outfit included. We do this deliberately: the template is about the line and the camera movement, and it should not depend on dressing anyone as a copyrighted character.
The reference performer is never kept, and the template does not try to make anyone look like an actor. The face, hair and build all come from your photo. Do not upload a photo of an actor or a celebrity to get the original look back.
The joke is the gap between the confidence of the delivery and the person delivering it. In a superhero suit the line is a character bit; in your own clothes, aimed at a friend, it becomes personal, which is usually funnier.
Wear it in your photo. The template uses the outfit it sees, so a costume you own and are photographed in carries over as your outfit. Keep it to costumes that carry no logos or lettering, and label the video as AI-made when you post it.
Add a photo for each role shown below. All roles need a photo.
Add one clear photo of yourself or of someone who agreed to appear. A sharp, front-facing face with the mouth and chin clearly visible works best, because the last three seconds are a close-up of the lower face. The outfit in the photo is the one you wear.
Choose 480p, 720p or 1080p and review the quote. It includes the full video and the photo preparation.
Watch your face on "you're not that guy, pal" around 3 seconds, the closed-lip pause near 5.5 seconds and your mouth in the final close-up, then download your vertical MP4.
From about 2 seconds your face rises into the camera frame and fills it by 5 seconds. From 6 seconds the phone drops to an extreme close-up of your mouth and chin for the rest of the clip, so your lips, stubble or beard and skin carry the last three seconds.
The reference performer wears a blue superhero suit with a red cape. That costume is not part of the template: you wear the outfit in your photo, and the cape, armour and gloves are left out.
"You're not that guy, pal. Trust me, you're not that guy." Your video keeps the clip's original audio and timing; you do not record anything, and your photo does not change the voice.
One continuous 9-second handheld shot through a bright pharmacy, no cuts. The preview is the reference clip, not an Oakgen result.
It is a 9-second vertical AI video built on the "You're not that guy, pal" meme audio. One person faces an offscreen camera operator in a pharmacy as the camera tilts up and moves closer. The visible person says "you're not that guy, pal, trust me, you're not that guy", ending in an extreme close-up of their mouth and chin. Oakgen's template puts the person from your photo in it and keeps the store, the camera moves and the audio.
"You're not that guy, pal" is a meme from a viral 2020 video filmed in a store, later reused as a sound and a catchphrase for telling someone they are less impressive than they think. The reference clip pairs that audio with a man dressed as Homelander from The Boys. This template is an unofficial fan-style format, not connected to the show, the meme's original video or any store.
No. The suit, cape, shoulder armour and gloves in the reference are not kept. Your photo replaces the whole person, so you wear the outfit in your photo. A plain T-shirt or a work shirt often makes the line funnier.
No. The video keeps the clip's original audio, so you are heard in the meme's voice. You do not record anything.
Yes, one, and it is required. The person in the reference is never kept, so your photo always takes the role.
That is the joke of the clip: the phone gets so close that only the lower face is left in frame for the last three seconds. Your face is fully on screen from about 3 to 6 seconds; after that the template keeps the same extreme close-up.
Use photos of yourself or of people who agreed to be in the video. Do not upload photos of actors, celebrities or anyone who has not consented, label AI videos clearly when you share them and keep the put-down obviously a joke.
The template sends the clip's audio and the tracked mouth movement of the reference with your photo, and the original audio is restored at the end. These are instructions to a model, so check the close-ups before posting and re-run if the lips clearly drift.
The template is written for a person talking into a phone. An animal photo is not blocked, but the result is untested and the mouth close-up may not look right.
9 seconds in portrait 9:16, one continuous handheld take with no cuts.
No. It is the reference clip the trend comes from, not an Oakgen result. Review the face, the mouth close-up and the hands in your video before sharing.
