Babyface AI Video, Step-by-Step
The Beginner’s Guide to Making AI-Powered Baby Content
First… watch this:
Yes. That’s a real video. And no, Bill didn’t send me anything. I made that with AI. All I needed was a photo, one public interview, and 30 minutes.
If you’re feeling bold, I’ve posted the full technical workflow for how to do that kind of thing here:
Advanced Deepfake Workflow Guide
But if you’re just getting started, keep reading.
This is the simpler (and still hilarious) way to make a baby version of yourself say whatever you want, with AI.
Step 1: Baby-fy your face.
Open GPT-4o and upload a picture of yourself. Then hit the “Create Image” button under the prompt bar.
This is your prompt:
“Make me an ultra-realistic baby.”
Didn’t like the result? No problem. You can fix it on the spot:
“Make it smile more.”
“Add longer hair.”
“Tone down the cheeks.”
You can make it perfect for yourself.
Step 2: Record your voice.
Record whatever you want the baby to say.
Use your phone, your laptop – whatever gets you an MP3.
Start with something short and punchy.
You can even use AI to write the script for you.
Step 3: Make the baby talk.
Go to HeyGen.
Here’s what to do:
Sign up for free. FYI signing up is a b*tch. I just clicked through as fast as possible. It's free.
Click: Home > Photo to Video AI (IV)
Upload your baby photo
Click "upload or record audio". Upload or record your MP3
Click “Generate Video ”
Let it generate. And enjoy being mind blown.
HeyGen is free to test out, or $20 for more videos. I’ve already made 10+. Worth it.
The original E*TRADE baby probably took a studio, actors, editors, and six figures.
Today, with AI and a $20 GPT Pro subscription, you can recreate it in probably 45 minutes.
The gap between “Hollywood budget” and “browser window” is gone.
This isn’t just cheaper. It’s a total shift in creative power. Go get it.
This was definitely the best scene from those commercials. iykyk 👇
