About AI Tiny Desk
AI Tiny Desk turns one consenting adult’s portrait into a 15-second Tiny Desk-style concert video. A fixed reference guides the setting, band, camera sequence and performance. Choose your resolution and aspect ratio; friend slots are placeholders and cannot add performers.
AI Tiny Desk is an independent AI tool, not affiliated with or endorsed by NPR or Tiny Desk. Artist, song and platform names and examples do not imply permission, partnership or endorsement.
How to make a video
- Choose one clear portrait of an adult who has consented to AI processing, and confirm that you have permission to use the photo. Pets and additional performers are not supported in the current workflow.
- Use the built-in concert reference and fixed instructions without writing a prompt or uploading a reference video. Sign in, verify your email, choose the resolution and aspect ratio, review the credit cost and confirm the 15-second generation. Free previews are currently disabled. Buying credits does not start generation automatically.
- Check task status in My videos. When the video is ready, preview and download it, then check the performance, sound and framing before publishing.
AI model and provider
AI Tiny Desk uses Wan 3.0 Video for video generation, accessed through KIE’s API service.
Results and usage boundaries
AI appearance, movement, lip sync and audio may vary. Audio is generated using the reference; the original song, lyrics and exact soundtrack are not guaranteed. Check image and music rights before sharing. Credits are charged after delivery is verified; confirmed technical failures release reserved credits.
