The real scene
Other apps build a fake schoolyard from your photo. We use the actual footage, so the walk-in and the crowd are the ones people know.

Why it looks right
Others fake the crowd. We put you in the real one.

The real song
The original audio comes through untouched, with the drop landing right as the crowd starts moving.
Your whole look
Not just your face. Your hair, skin tone and outfit from the photo carry through the close-up, the walk and the wide shot.
The crowd stays
Every student, every bow and head-bang, every camera move stays exactly as in the original.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
What is the STORM trend?
It's the viral crowd scene from the STORM music video: a lead in a white shirt walks into a crowd of students in school blazers, and the whole crowd bows and head-bangs around him. People are putting themselves in it, and Oakgen lets you do it with the real footage.
How does it work?
Upload one photo. We replace the lead with you, using your face, hair, skin tone and outfit, while the crowd, the schoolyard, the camera work and the song stay exactly as they were.
Does it change my outfit too?
Yes. Whatever you're wearing in your photo is what you wear in the video, so a photo that shows your outfit works best.
Why was my photo rejected?
We don't allow photos of celebrities or other public figures, and we need one clear person to work with. Try a sharp, front-facing photo in even light. If a generation fails, your credits are refunded automatically.
How long does it take?
About five minutes. You don't have to wait on the page. The finished video is saved to your assets.
How much does it cost?
916–4,576 credits per video depending on quality (480p: 916, 720p: 1,831, 1080p: 4,576). The price is shown on the Generate button before you start.
Does the video keep the original audio?
Yes. The output is a 16-second clip in 480p, 720p or 1080p with the original song, so it's ready to post as-is.
Can I download and share it?
Yes. Download the MP4 straight from the tool or from your assets and post it anywhere.
Your turn in the crowd.
One photo, the real song, about five minutes. Your face, your hair, your fit.
