Frequently asked questions
Everything about making your own Tiny Desk AI video.
What is a Tiny Desk AI video?
It is a short AI video format that puts your photos on stage as an intimate desk-session concert: performers behind a wooden desk, warm office lighting, shelves in the background, one close camera — the stripped-back live set look, generated from still photos.
How do I make a Tiny Desk AI video?
Add one to five performer photos, pick your quality, and generate. The generator recreates the desk-session setting and performance energy with your photos as the performers, in vertical 9:16 with the reference audio retained.
Do I need all 5 photos?
No — one clear photo is enough. Extra photos are for full-band versions: add up to five so multiple members appear behind the desk. Every photo should be well-lit with the face clearly visible.
What photos work best?
Clear, well-lit shots where each performer's face is visible. Front-facing or three-quarter angles track best. Avoid group shots where faces overlap, heavy filters, or tiny faces.
How long is the video and can I post it on TikTok or Reels?
15 seconds in 9:16 vertical — a multi-shot desk session — sized for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts. The video downloads watermark-free — add the live track and captions in the platform editor when you post.
How many credits does a video cost?
A 480p render costs 25 credits and a 720p HD render costs 50 credits. Credit packs are one-time purchases and failed renders are refunded automatically.
Can I use any character or band?
You can use photos of people, animals, cartoons or characters you have permission to use. Never upload real public figures or celebrities.
Is this affiliated with NPR's Tiny Desk concerts?
No. MakeYourViral is an independent creative tool inspired by the intimate desk-session format. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by NPR, or the artists and venues in the original footage.
