In this article
Short answer: open the New Year AI Video studio, upload one clear selfie, and press Generate. The clip opens on your photo, then shows you at midnight with champagne as fireworks burst and confetti falls. You get a 5.583333-second vertical MP4 with sound. You do not write a prompt and you do not edit anything.
What you upload and what you get
| You provide | You receive |
|---|---|
| 1 clear, front-facing selfie of one person | A 5.583333-second MP4, 9:16 vertical |
| Your choice of resolution: 480p, 720p or 1080p | Your photo opens the clip, then you toast with champagne at midnight under fireworks and confetti |
| Nothing else: no prompt, no reference video, no editing | Audio already mixed into the file, no watermark |
What happens in the video
- The opening: your selfie fills the screen.
- Midnight: the clip cuts to you by the water at night with a glass of champagne as the first fireworks go up.
- The celebration: fireworks keep bursting, confetti falls and you laugh and raise the glass.
- The ending: you wave at the camera.
Choosing the right photo
- One person: only you in the photo.
- Framing: head to at least the waist, so the glass and your outfit fit in the frame.
- Face: look at the camera; no party masks or drinks over the face.
- Light: even, bright light. Avoid dark party photos with flash glare.
How to make it in 3 steps
- Upload one selfie. Use the photo rules above. The studio shows a free framing preview before you spend credits.
- Pick a resolution and generate. The clip is vertical 9:16; credits per resolution are in the table below. Rendering usually takes about 5–15 minutes, so do it before New Year's Eve.
- Download and send. Open My videos, play the clip and download the MP4 with the sound already on it.
When to post and what to write
- Make it a day early and post it at midnight.
- "3… 2… 1… Happy New Year from me (and my AI twin)."
- "Leaving the year's unread emails behind."

FAQ
Do I need to write a prompt?
No. The midnight scene, fireworks, confetti and sound are built in. You only upload the photo.
Can I send it as a Feliz Año Nuevo greeting?
Yes. The clip has no words in it, so it works in any language. Write your greeting in the caption.
Is New Year Fireworks Toast for one person or two?
One. Upload 1 clear, front-facing photo with a single person in frame. Group photos are not supported.
Can I use a photo of my pet?
This template is built around a human performer, so we recommend a photo of a person. Pet photos are not supported for this scene; templates such as Flying Tesla Roadster, Baby Knight and Spooky Scary Skeletons are made for pets.
Does the exported video include the original sound?
Yes. The original scene audio is precisely synchronized in every downloaded MP4, so you do not need to add or align the soundtrack in an editor.
How long is the video and what resolution do I get?
Every video from this template is 5.583333 seconds, 9:16 vertical, as a watermark-free MP4. Choose 480p (25 credits), 720p (50 credits) or 1080p (100 credits). The Single covers up to 720p; the Creator or Studio unlocks 1080p.
What happens to my credits if the video fails?
If a generation fails, times out or is blocked by a safety check, the credits for that job return to your balance automatically (25, 50 or 100 by resolution). The video page shows the job status and whether the credits were returned.
What if I'm not happy with the result?
Credits come back automatically only when a generation fails; a completed video uses its credits. Results depend on photo clarity and lighting, so a sharp, front-facing, well-lit photo works best, and the studio shows a free framing preview before you spend credits. If a finished video has a serious technical problem, such as a broken file or missing audio, email support@trendswap.app with the video reference. Duplicate charges and purchases that never reached your account are handled under our refund policy.
How long are my photos and videos kept, and how do I delete them?
Your uploaded photo and finished videos stay in your account until you delete them; nothing expires automatically. Delete a video in My videos (/videos): this permanently removes the video file and the photo it was made from. You can remove an unused photo in the studio. To erase your whole account, email support@trendswap.app with the subject "Privacy Request". We do not use your photos or videos to train public AI models.
