Quick answer
Upload two photos to Starrd's Zombie Love Story template, him and her, and it recasts the viral cinematic short with both of your faces. In a dim cabin he aims a gun at the woman he loves, now a pale zombie with clouded eyes, cries, and lowers it. Then it cuts to a golden field: she runs into his arms laughing, they walk hand in hand and hold each other as the sun goes down. It keeps the original's settings, light, camera and music, and puts your faces and hair on both characters. 24 seconds, widescreen 16:9, 250 credits.
Two photos in, and out comes a 24-second zombie love story starring the two of you: the cabin, the gun, the tears, and then a golden field at sunset. Here's one:
Zombie Love Story
Two photos, you and your person. She turned, he can't pull the trigger, then sunset in a golden field. 24 seconds.
What You Get
- The cabin. Dim light, a window full of grey sky, and him aiming a gun with tears running down his face.
- The turn. Her, pale, clouded eyes, shuffling toward him.
- The choice. He lowers the gun, opens his arms and closes his eyes.
- The field. Golden grass, warm light, her running into his arms and laughing.
- The ending. Hand in hand, then holding each other as the sun goes down.
- Your faces in every shot, his from photo 1 and hers from photo 2.
- The original music and camera work, shot for shot.
- 24 seconds, widescreen 16:9, ready for YouTube, Reels and TikTok.
The Beats
| Time | What happens |
|---|---|
| 0–3s | Close-up: him, crying, gun raised |
| 3–6.5s | She shuffles into the cabin; he aims |
| 6.5–7s | Her zombie face |
| 7–11s | His tears, then he lowers the gun, arms open, eyes closed |
| 11–12s | Cut to a golden field: she runs into his arms |
| 12–17s | She laughs as he holds her face; he smiles |
| 17–19s | They walk off hand in hand |
| 19–24s | Holding each other at sunset |
Which Photo Goes Where
Photo 1 is him, the one holding the gun. Photo 2 is her, the one who turns. The app labels the two slots, so upload them in that order.
Use clear, front-facing photos with the face sharp and well lit. Hair shows in almost every shot, so a photo with your usual hairstyle works best.

How It's Made
This template isn't generated from a written story. It's motion transfer: the original 24-second short stays exactly as it was shot (every cut, camera move, light change and the music), and only the two people in it are replaced with the faces and hair from your photos. That's why the cabin, the zombie makeup and the sunset look like a film: they are the film.
Common Mistakes
Swapping the photos. If photo 1 is her, she ends up holding the gun. Him first, her second.
Sunglasses or hats. Anything covering the face or hair in your photo makes the likeness weaker. Use a clear, bare-faced photo.
Group photos. One person per photo, or the model may pick the wrong face.
