What MiniMax face swap brings to a finished cut

Think of it as re-casting rather than re-shooting: the lens drift, head turns, edit points and mix all survive, and the performers are the only new element.

  • Re-casting, not re-generating
    No frame of movement is invented again. Your existing footage is re-cast in place, so the result drops back into the same slot on the timeline without a re-edit.
  • Faces matched left to right, prompt optional
    Each newcomer gets a single portrait, assigned in reading order and kept consistent from shot to shot; if that order is wrong, one written line reassigns the roles.
  • Your clip supplies the acting
    The timing of a glance, the weight of a gesture, practical lighting and handheld sway are all inherited from the original take; only faces and wardrobe arrive from the portraits.

Three steps to a MiniMax face swap

From a locked take to a fresh cast in three moves, with the runtime and the audio exactly as they arrived.

Where MiniMax face swap performs best

Made for footage that is already correct apart from who is in it: the rhythm of the edit, the movement and the mix are preserved while the performers are replaced.

Up to four faces, one order

You can supply four portraits at most, each tied to one on-screen role and carried through every shot that role appears in. A written instruction can reverse the default order.

Acting preserved, cast replaced

Every gesture still lands on its original beat, the light still falls the same way and the camera still drifts as it did. What changes is the face and the clothing.

Edit points and mix inherited

Because the cutting pattern and the audio bed come along untouched, the result can drop into an approved edit with no re-timing, no re-recording and no re-syncing.

Cheap 768p check, 1080p delivery

Run a quick 768p preview to judge whether the resemblance reads, then finish at 1080p. Output matches source length, so cost scales with runtime.

What a good portrait looks like

Aim for a sharp, evenly lit, straight-on photo, framed to about half body so hair and wardrobe transfer with the face. Avoid sunglasses, headwear, hands over the face and pictures with several people in them.

Known limits worth planning around

Crowded frames, small distant faces, rapid motion and subjects hidden right after a cut are harder. In wide shots or when a head turns to profile, the resemblance may drift back toward the original actor.

FAQ

MiniMax face swap: common questions

Answers on clip limits, casting order, photo quality and the situations where a MiniMax face swap works — and where it does not.

1

What exactly does MiniMax face swap change?

It replaces the performers in a clip you already own with the people in your portraits. Camera movement, edit points and the audio bed stay as they were, so it is a casting change on a finished edit rather than a new render.

2

What clip length is accepted?

Between 5 and 30 seconds, and no individual shot beyond 15 seconds. Cut anything longer into sections before uploading; the result returns at the same runtime you supplied.

3

How many people can be replaced at once?

Up to four, with one portrait per person. Photos are assigned to the main roles in left-to-right reading order unless a short written instruction reassigns them.

4

Which photos give the best resemblance?

Go for clear, well-lit, straight-on portraits, ideally framed to the waist so hair and clothes come through. Leave out sunglasses, hats, hands covering the face, crowded frames and heavily edited images.

5

Is a 768p preview worth it?

Yes — a short 768p run shows whether the new cast reads correctly before you spend on the full render. Once it looks right, finish at 1080p; billing tracks the length of the clip.

6

When is this the wrong tool?

When you need brand-new action, different camera angles or another setting, since the source footage dictates all of that. Heavy crowds, small faces in the distance and quick movement following a hard cut are also weak points.
