The template
The I Love The Smiths template
The template is the scene itself: an elevator, two people, a pair of headphones, and one line. The only thing you choose is who plays each role.
The two roles
Role 1 is the man on the left. He wears the headphones and drives the silent reaction. Role 2 is the woman on the right. She recognizes the song, says the line, and leaves on the punchline.
Order is the whole game
The first upload becomes the headphone wearer; the second becomes the speaker. If the result looks like the roles are reversed, you uploaded the photos in the wrong order. There is no prompt that fixes a swapped slot.
What the template keeps
The elevator interior, the warm wood and metal, the camera framing, the headphone adjustment, the glances, and the original dialogue and music. Only the two identities and outfits change.
Template vs. prompt
A prompt describes a scene and hopes the model agrees. A template locks the scene and swaps the people. That is why the output is consistent enough to post on the first render.
FAQ
Can I swap the roles?
Yes. Upload the photos in the opposite order. The first slot is always the headphone wearer.
Can I change the clothes or background?
The template keeps the scene and the original sound fixed. The uploaded photos determine the faces and outfits.
Is this a CapCut template?
No. CapCut can cut and caption a clip, but it cannot replace two people in a scene. This template is an AI video workflow.
