Video Summary
This tutorial by Kush Sharma from Creative Pad Media explains how to place an ordinary portrait into a dramatic, AI-generated scene using Fooocus AI and other free tools.
Workflow and Key Techniques:
- Scene Creation: Start by finding a reference image for your desired scene (e.g., a rockstar on stage). Use a tool like ImagePrompts.org to generate a detailed prompt from the reference [02:25] and use an AI generator to create the base background image [03:54].
- Face Preparation: Crop the original portrait into a tight headshot and remove the background using Pixelcut to ensure the AI focuses solely on facial features [07:41].
- Fooocus AI Integration: * Masking: In the “Inpaint” tab, mask the face and the neck of the person in the generated scene [06:04].
- Face Swapping: Upload the headshot to the “Image Prompt” tab and select the FaceSwap mode [08:33].
- Crucial Setting: Change the inpainting method to “Improve Detail” for a subtle, realistic blend instead of the aggressive “Inpaint” default [09:29].
- Developer Mode: Enable “Mixing Image Prompt and Input” in the developer debug settings to link the mask with the face prompt [10:08].
- Refinement: * Fix AI-generated anatomy errors, such as distorted fingers, by masking them and using the “Improve Detail” method [14:12].
