One speaker to replace

How to make it
Add a photo for each role shown below. All roles need a photo.
- 01
Choose the speaker
Upload one sharp photo with the face and hair visible. A front-facing head-and-shoulders photo with an unobstructed mouth gives the template a clear identity reference.
- 02
Review the preview and quote
Turn on the preview sound to hear the fixed speech. Choose 720p or 1080p and review the quote for the complete 18-second clip.
- 03
Check the speech and reactions
Review the face, counting fingers and mouth timing through the hesitation and apology. Download the MP4 with the speech soundtrack and label your post as AI-made parody.
Speech included
The download keeps the reference speech, including the hesitation and the line ‘I'm sorry, I'm nervous’. Uploading a photo changes appearance, not the words or voice.
Keep the room in view
The 4:3 frame leaves space for both the speaker and the audience reactions. The full sequence runs for 18 seconds.
An AI parody reference
The preview is an AI parody, not an authentic recording of the depicted person saying these words. It is the reference the template follows, not an Oakgen-generated example.
Photo tips
- One clearly visible face per photo
- Keep the mouth and hair unobstructed
- Your photo supplies the outfit
- Hear the full speech before generating
- Review hands and mouth timing before sharing
- Use agreed photos and label the result as AI-made parody
Questions & answers
What is the Sorry I'm Nervous AI trend?
It is a lectern speech parody named after the spoken line ‘I'm sorry, I'm nervous’. The speaker counts on their fingers, hesitates and apologises while a seated audience reacts. Oakgen's template replaces that speaker with the character in your photo.
Does the video include the speech?
Yes. The original reference soundtrack is kept in the download, including the spoken lines, hesitation and background sound. It is not a silent template, and your photo does not change the voice.
Can I write my own speech or clone my voice?
This template uses the fixed speech from the preview. It does not accept a replacement script, voice recording or custom dialogue.
Does my photo need the red cap and suit?
No. The template replaces the source speaker's cap, suit, tie, hair and face with your own appearance. A cap is requested only when your photo includes one; lettering and logos are not requested.
Is the preview made with Oakgen?
No. It is an AI parody reference, not an Oakgen-generated result or an authentic speech recording. Label your version as AI-made parody too.
How long is it, and is it vertical?
The video is 18 seconds in a 4:3 frame, with 720p and 1080p options. It keeps the wide room composition rather than cropping away the audience.
Is lip sync guaranteed?
No. The template gives the model the reference performance and timed dialogue cues, then restores the reference speech. Check the generated mouth movements, pauses and apology before sharing.
Can I use a pet photo?
The template instructs the model to retain the animal's species and markings and adapt the gesture to a paw. Pet mouth timing and anatomy need careful review; no pet result is shown here as a verified example.
How much does it cost?
956 credits per 720p video. The quote covers the complete 18-second clip. Review it before generating.
