How to Make an AI Zombie Video

Three ways to make the zombie love story everyone is posting: an app template, a prompt in an AI video app, or two photos on FlicLoop. Here is how each one works, what it costs in time, and how to post the result.

1 Add two photos — one person each
A

Photo 1 · The one who turns

Tap to add a clear photo

B

Photo 2 · The survivor

Tap to add a clear photo

Clear, front-facing photo of an adult who agreed, one face each. No celebrities, minors or nudity. Rules

2 Who turns?

Happy ending

The person in photo 1 has turned into a zombie. The person in photo 2 aims a rifle, can't pull the trigger, drops it and hugs them, then the scene cuts to the two of you, human again, hugging: Autumn park. No shot fired, no blood. A 12-second wordless film with soft piano, nothing to type.

3 Pick quality & length

By pressing “Make our zombie video” you confirm you are 18 or older, you have permission from everyone in the photos, and you agree to the Terms and Acceptable Use Policy.

At a glance

  • Template in a video app: quickest if your region has one; the story is fixed.
  • Prompt in an AI video app: flexible, but plan for retries.
  • FlicLoop: two photos, pick a memory, about four minutes, $5.90.
  • Whichever you use: add the trend sound when you post and keep the AI label.

Make it on FlicLoop in three steps

  1. 1

    Upload two photos

    Photo 1 turns, photo 2 stays. Clear, front-facing photos of two consenting adults.

  2. 2

    Pick the happy memory

    Meadow, beach at sunset, autumn park or first home kitchen for the final flashback.

  3. 3

    Make it, download, post

    About four minutes later, download the MP4 and post it with the trend sound.

Method 1: a template in a video-editing app

Search the app's template library for "zombie", tap a template, and fill its photo slots in the order it asks. It is fast, but templates appear and disappear, differ by region, and follow their own fixed edit, so you cannot change the story or the memory.

Method 2: a prompt in an AI video app

Pick an app that supports reference images, attach your two photos, and paste a shot-by-shot prompt. Expect a few attempts before both faces stay recognisable through the turn and the flashback.

Method 3: two photos on FlicLoop

Upload the person who turns and the survivor, choose the memory, and press the button. The scene, camera and music are already written and tested; failed renders are refunded automatically.

Posting checklist

Add the trending sound inside TikTok, Reels or Shorts rather than baking music in. Keep the AI-generated label on. Only post photos of people who agreed to it, and tag them if they want to be tagged.

Common mistakes

Sunglasses, hats pulled low and hands over faces hide the features the video needs. Group photos and tiny faces confuse who is who. Very dark photos lose detail once the zombie makeup goes on. And only photos of adults who agreed to appear are allowed.

After you download

Trim the start if you want the turn to hit sooner, add a caption on screen in your editor, and add the trend sound inside TikTok, Reels or Shorts when you post. Keep the AI-generated label on.

The three methods compared

Other apps change their prices and templates often; check their current plans.

App template
Fastest and often free; fixed story; may not exist in your region
Prompt in an AI video app
Most control; plan for several retries; paid with that app’s credits
FlicLoop
Two photos, about four minutes, $5.90; failed renders refunded
Honest comparison
