A week of content with AI video swaps can come from one evening of work: pick seven short clips, collect a few photos of yourself and friends who agreed, make the videos, and post one a day. Mix formats so the feed doesn't repeat itself: a trend, a meme, a duo, a music video moment, your own footage, a group scene and a video your followers choose. Label every post as AI-made, and the plan below will keep you posting without filming a thing.
Why plan a week instead of one video?
Short-video feeds reward showing up regularly more than one perfect post. A plan also saves time: you choose clips, gather photos and ask permission once, then make the videos in one sitting. And when every day has a different format, you learn quickly what your audience likes, which helps you plan the next week.
The plan at a glance
| Day | Format | Who you need |
|---|---|---|
| Monday | A trend from the library | You |
| Tuesday | A reaction meme | You |
| Wednesday | A duo scene | You and one friend |
| Thursday | A music video moment | You, or you and friends |
| Friday | Your own footage, recast | Anyone who agreed |
| Saturday | A group scene | Three to six friends |
| Sunday | Your followers' pick | Depends on the vote |
Monday: start with a trend
Open Trends on vswp and pick a clip that is popular right now. The people in these videos are already found, so you only add your photo to the right card. Trends are the easiest start because viewers already know the original, and the joke is seeing you in it. Name the trend in your caption so people searching for it can find you.
Tuesday: a reaction meme
Reaction memes are short, loud and easy to reuse in comments and chats. Put your face into a well-known one and post it as your "mood" for the day. Our guide to reaction memes with your face explains which clips work best: a single face, large in the frame, with one clear expression.
Wednesday: a duo with a friend
Two people, both big in the frame, is the format AI swaps handle most reliably. Choose a scene with an obvious contrast, like one calm person and one chaotic one, and cast a friend who is in on the joke. For more ideas, see funny video ideas with friends.
Thursday: a music video moment
A few seconds of a famous music video with you as the singer or a dancer makes a strong mid-week post. Pick the part where the person you replace is close to the camera and faces it. How to put yourself in a music video covers choosing the part and the photo. Remember that the song belongs to its owners, and platforms may mute posts with copyrighted music.
Friday: recast your own footage
Upload a video you filmed yourself, 1 to 120 seconds and up to 150 MB, and swap who is in it: a friend's dance with another friend's face, or an old party clip with everyone playing each other. vswp searches the first 30 seconds for people for free, and you can choose another part of up to 30 seconds. The steps are in how to upload your own video.
Saturday: a group scene
Weekends suit bigger casts. A video can use up to six different photos, so a band, a car full of people or a squad walk can star your whole group. Everyone without a photo stays as in the original. How to swap a whole group of friends explains how to assign roles without mixing them up.
Sunday: let your followers choose
On Friday or Saturday, ask your followers which trend or meme they want to see you in next, with a poll in stories or a question in the comments. Make the winner on Sunday. It turns viewers into participants and gives you a ready idea for next week.
How to make the whole week in one sitting
- Pick seven clips. Use Trends and your own videos, and keep each one short.
- Ask for permission. Message every friend you plan to cast, and tell them the video will be public.
- Collect photos. One sharp photo per person, just them, in good light, as JPEG, PNG or WebP. A full-body photo carries clothes and hair best.
- Sign in. Open vswp and sign in with Telegram. Your friends don't need an account.
- Set the look. Turn "Keep the original look" on to keep the clothes from the video and change only faces and hair, or off to take the look from the photo.
- Check before you pay. If you're new, start with the free preview: about 5 seconds at 480p with a small vswp.app mark.
- Create the videos. Choose 480p or 720p, check the price and estimated time, and press "Create video". Videos are typically ready in minutes.
- Save them. Download each MP4 and name the files by day so posting is quick.
What should every post include?
- An AI label. Turn on the platform's AI setting and write "made with AI" in the caption. Rules differ by country; in the EU, the AI Act's disclosure rule for deepfakes applies from August 2026. This is not legal advice.
- A vertical, sharp file. Start from vertical clips and pick 720p for posting. See 480p or 720p if you're unsure.
- Credit and hashtags. Name the trend or source, plus a few relevant tags.

What does a week like this cost?
Prices are in Telegram Stars (⭐) and depend on the length, the quality and the number of people you replace. The exact price is shown before you start, so you can keep clips short or use 480p for test runs. Stars are taken when a render starts and returned automatically if it fails or is canceled. Pressing "Create video" again makes a new take, which is a new render.
FAQ
Do I need to film anything for this plan?
No. Every day uses a video from Trends or a clip you already have, and the AI puts people into it from their photos.
Can I post videos with my friends' faces?
Only if they agreed to a public post. Show them the result first and take it down if they change their mind.
What if one video doesn't come out well?
This is generative AI, so likeness, hands and fast motion can need another take. Try a sharper photo or a part where the person is larger, then create it again.
How long should each video be?
Short clips work best in feeds. vswp processes up to 30 seconds, and a clip of 5 to 15 seconds with one clear moment is often enough.
Can I use any trending video I find?
Use only videos and photos you have the right to use. By pressing "Create video", you confirm that you do.
