The picture is yours
Nothing of the original performer is kept. The singer is recreated from your photo, standing at the microphone in front of the green studio wall.
Your whole look
Your photo is prepared with a faint facial wireframe, then used as the character reference for the face, hair, build and clothing. Studio headphones are added. Show the outfit you want.
The original audio
Oakgen copies the source audio into your finished video. The verse is very fast, so review how the lips line up before you share your AI edit.

Questions & answers
What is the mic session AI trend?
It is a Reels format in which someone unexpected steps up to a studio microphone, headphones on, and delivers a very fast verse in one unbroken take. This Oakgen template uses a 19-second Reel of it as its reference.
How do I make a mic session AI video?
Open the Mic Session tool, add one photo, choose a quality and generate. The reference clip, timing and audio are already set, so there is no prompt to write.
Does it use my outfit as well as my face?
Yes. Your photo is prepared with a faint facial wireframe while preserving the face, hair, build and clothing visible in it. The video uses that prepared photo and adds studio headphones. AI results can vary, so review the finished video.
Is the original performer kept?
No. The reference sets the movement, framing and audio. The picture, including the singer, the microphone and the studio wall, is generated to match it with the person from your photo.
Will the lips match the verse?
The reference guides the lip movements and timing, and the original audio is copied into your video. The verse is very fast, so the match is not guaranteed; check it before posting.
Can I choose the video quality?
Yes. Choose 480p, 720p or 1080p before generating. The default is 720p. Higher resolutions cost more; your selected price is shown before you start.
What photos can I use?
Use a clear photo of yourself or of someone who has given you permission, with their face, hair and clothing visible and nobody else in the picture. The model can reject photos, including realistic photos of people; a rejected generation is refunded.
How much does it cost?
2,859 credits per 720p video. This includes preparing your photo. The selected price is shown before you generate.
How long does it take?
Render time varies with quality and demand. You can leave the page while it runs; the finished video is saved to your assets. Failed generations receive an automatic credit refund.
Is this affiliated with the original creator?
No. Oakgen is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the creator of the reference Reel, the artist heard in it or anyone depicted in it. The page credits that Reel as the reference.
Can I download and share it?
Yes. Review your edit, then download the MP4 from the tool or your assets.
