What happens in your 25-second video

  1. Around 0–1.7 s: the headphone listener looks ahead; the speaker turns and says "I love The Smiths." (speech starts around 0.9 s).
  2. Around 1.7–3 s: the listener removes the headphones and says "Sorry?" at about 2.7 s.
  3. Around 3.7–5 s: the speaker says "I said, I love The Smiths."
  4. Around 9.5 s: the speaker says "You have good taste in music."
  5. Around 11 s: the listener says "You like The Smiths?"
  6. Around 13.5–17 s: the speaker sings along with a line from the original audio.
  7. Around 17.5 s: the speaker says "I love 'em."
  8. Around 19–25 s: cut to a corridor view; the speaker walks out, the listener stays in the elevator and says "Holy shit." at about 23.5 s as the doors start closing.

The scene, dialogue, singing, camera setup and duration are fixed; the photos only determine what the two characters look like. No prompt is needed.

What to expect from your video

The scene’s original sound

The video plays the elevator scene’s own dialogue and song, and both characters lip-sync to it in one shared shot. Mouth timing can still drift; pets have looser mouth movements and poses than humans.

Native portrait framing

9:16 reconstructs the scene vertically. It does not place a wide video over a blurred background. 16:9 is also available.

Two faces, one scene

Separate portraits become the two elevator roles. Hair, clothing details and background people may differ from your photos or the film.

Watch real samples before paying

No free credits or free preview. Watch the real homepage samples before paying. Single videos and video packs use the current prices shown here; there is no subscription.

What happens in the elevator

Every video follows these beats across the full 25-second scene, timed to its original sound. Generated actions can vary.

01

Headphones on the left

The left person listens to music. The person on the right notices the song and says “I love The Smiths.”

02

A missed line, then a repeat

The headphone wearer misses the first line, removes the headphones and hears the speaker repeat it.

03

The compliment

The speaker adds “You have good taste in music.” The headphone wearer, stunned, asks “You like The Smiths?”

04

A sung line and an exit

The speaker sings a line of the song, says “I love ’em,” and walks out when the doors open, leaving the headphone wearer alone: “Holy shit.”

What is the I Love the Smiths AI trend?

It recreates the elevator conversation from the 2009 film (500) Days of Summer using two new faces. One person wears headphones; the other says “I love The Smiths.” Your photos take those roles.

The film is directed by Marc Webb. Tom is played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Summer by Zooey Deschanel. The headphone track is The Smiths’ “There Is a Light That Never Goes Out”, from The Queen Is Dead (1986).

Why make your own version?

Tom has his headphones on, so he doesn’t hear Summer at first. Then he realizes she likes the same band. That little pause is fun to play out yourself: with a partner, it can feel like a movie meet-cute; with a friend, it can be a joke about the song you both play on repeat.

Our AI version puts the adults or pets from your photos into the scene, with mouth movements animated to its original sound. Hair, fur, clothing and backgrounds can differ. Pets have looser mouth movements and poses than humans. Watch the real homepage samples before paying and check your completed video before sharing.

I Love the Smiths AI FAQ

The scene, song, photo roles, payment and delivery explained before you pay.

What is the I Love the Smiths AI trend?

It is an AI recreation of an elevator conversation from (500) Days of Summer. Two uploaded photos, each showing one adult or one pet, take the two roles: one wears headphones and the other says “I love The Smiths.” The generator creates a new 25-second video with both characters in one shot and mouth movements animated to the scene’s original sound.

Which movie is the elevator scene from?

The scene is from the 2009 film (500) Days of Summer, directed by Marc Webb and distributed by Searchlight Pictures. Tom, played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, is listening through headphones. Summer, played by Zooey Deschanel, notices the music and speaks to him. Your photos take these roles in the AI recreation.

What song plays in the scene?

The song in the film is The Smiths’ “There Is a Light That Never Goes Out”, from the 1986 album The Queen Is Dead. Summer sings along with a line of the chorus. That line is part of the scene’s original sound, which the generated video plays.

Who wears headphones and who says the line?

Photo 1 takes the left headphone role, like Tom, and misses the first line; Photo 2 takes the right speaking role, like Summer, and says “I love The Smiths.” Either role can be an adult or a pet. Use Swap the two photos before generating if the upload order is reversed.

Will the generated adults or pets look like our photos?

Clear, front-facing photos of one adult or one pet, with even lighting, give the model a better view of each face. Likeness is not guaranteed: hair, fur, clothing and backgrounds may change. Side profiles, sunglasses, masks and blurry images work poorly; group photos are not accepted. Watch real homepage samples before paying and check your completed video carefully before sharing it.

Does it match the lip movements and can I change the dialogue?

Both mouths are animated to the scene’s original sound, line by line, but exact lip sync is not guaranteed. Clear, front-facing portraits give it a better starting point. Pets follow their photo appearance, with looser mouth movements and poses than humans. There is no prompt input, voice selector, custom dialogue, replacement song or mute setting in the generator.

Can I make a vertical video for Reels or TikTok?

Yes. Native 9:16 portrait is the default; 16:9 landscape is also available. Portrait reconstructs the elevator composition vertically rather than adding blurred side backgrounds. You can choose 480p, 720p or 1080p. The output is one MP4 with sound and no watermark. Check both faces and framing in your completed video.

How much does it cost, and can I preview before paying?

The generator and pricing cards show the current credit requirement and purchase prices. There are no free credits, no free preview and no subscriptions. Watch real homepage samples before paying. Buy a single full video or a video pack; each new version uses credits again. Failed generation automatically returns credits.

How long is the video and how long does delivery take?

Every video is the full 25-second scene. Delivery time varies with demand and settings, and higher resolutions may take longer. You can close the page: an email notifies you when the video is ready in My videos. Avoid duplicate purchases while waiting.

What happens if generation fails?

Credits are reserved when generation starts and automatically returned if generation fails. A failed render is not charged. If the refund is still processing, check My videos and your credit history before retrying. If a payment return cannot be confirmed, use the payment check again rather than starting another purchase.

Can I use pets, celebrity photos or children’s photos?

Yes, pets are supported: use one adult or one pet per photo, including you with your pet or two pets. Use clear, front-facing photos with even lighting and get each person’s consent. Minors, celebrities, public figures and photos containing multiple people or pets are not accepted. Pets follow their photographed appearance, but their mouth movements and poses are looser than human performances; exact lip sync is not guaranteed.

Does the result use the original actors or film material?

The characters in the video are generated from your uploaded photos. The sound is the elevator scene’s original audio, used as the video’s soundtrack. This is an independent recreation tool with no affiliation to the film’s rights holders, The Smiths, the actors, Instagram or TikTok. Downloading a video grants no license to the film’s recording or music.

Put the two of you in the elevator

Watch real samples before paying, then upload two clear photos, each with one adult or one pet, check the roles and pay or use purchased credits to generate.
