The effect

How an AI clone video works

The Clones effect is one scene: you stand in the center, and identical copies of you appear around you until a whole squad strikes the same pose. The classic version takes a tripod, one take per copy and an evening of masking. Here a Seedance video model renders it from your photo, so there is nothing to line up.

The model is told to keep your face, hair and outfit from the photo, so a clear picture matters most. With a second photo, or one photo of both of you, the prompt asks for copies of both. The clip has ambient sound, no music.

Three steps

How to make a clone video of yourself

  1. 01

    Add a photo

    Waist up or wider, face toward the camera. The background does not matter; the effect ignores it.

  2. 02

    Keep Clones selected

    The generator starts on Seedance 2.0 Mini, 720p, 5 seconds and 9:16. Change any of them; the price updates.

  3. 03

    Create and share

    The provider quotes about 4 to 6 minutes. Download the MP4, or find it later in My videos.

What you get

A squad without the editing

01

One photo is enough

No filming, no green screen, no second take.

02

A squad that matches

Every copy is meant to wear your outfit, so a bright jacket reads well.

03

Room for two

Two photos, or one of both of you, put the pair in the center.

04

A price on every option

3 credits for 5 seconds at 720p. Longer and sharper versions cost more; failed renders are refunded.

Tips for better clones

  • Show more than a face. A waist-up or full-length photo gives every copy a body to pose with.
  • Keep the face clear: no sunglasses, no hair across the eyes, even light.
  • Go wide with 16:9 or 21:9, or pick 9:16 for Reels.

What to make with it

  • An introduction for a new channel, job or team, captioned “there’s a lot of me”.
  • The friend who plans the trip, books the table and brings the snacks.
  • A duo intro before a rap video of the same pair.
  • A birthday post where the whole party is the birthday person.

Questions

Questions about the effect

Still stuck? Contact us or see pricing.

How do I make an AI clone video of myself?

Add one clear photo, keep Clones selected and tap create. Copies of you appear one by one until a squad strikes the same pose.

Do I need to film anything or use a green screen?

No. One photo is enough; the whole scene is rendered from it.

Can two people be cloned together?

Yes. Add one photo per person, or one photo of both of you.

How much does it cost?

A 5 second clip on Seedance 2.0 Mini at 720p costs 3 credits. Every new Google account gets one free preview, and it covers an effect of up to 12 seconds on Seedance 2.0 Mini, with a watermark.

Will the clones look like me?

The model is told to keep the face, hair and outfit from your photo. Sharp, front-facing photos work best.
