Tips for a more realistic face swap

Your source files have the biggest effect on quality. Check these before you generate.

Choose a clear face photo

Use a sharp, high-resolution photo with the face looking toward the camera. Avoid blur, sunglasses, and heavy shadows.

Match the face angles

A front-facing photo works best with front-facing video. Similar angles make the blend look more natural.

Start with a good video

Bright, stable, lightly compressed video helps the AI preserve facial detail from one frame to the next.

Try another source photo

If the first result is not quite right, test a photo with lighting and expression closer to the source video.
