About this preset
Recast swap takes a clip you already have and changes one thing in it. Name the object or product to replace and describe what it becomes, and you get the same clip back with the new object in its place: same length, same framing, same camera move, same people and the same light.
It works on clips of 3 to 10 seconds. Describe the new object with its material, colour and shape, because the change follows your words. For a longer film, swap one shot at a time. You get the recast clip next to your original so you can compare them.
Use cases
- Putting your product into a shot you already filmed
- Swapping a prop without a reshoot
- Trying a new colourway or design in an existing product shot
- Replacing a placeholder object in a draft edit
Examples
Made with this preset, with the prompt behind each one.
A white coffee mug on a desk becomes a matte black travel bottle with a bamboo lid; the push in, the desk and the light stay the same
Edit this clip and change one thing only. THE TARGET: the white ceramic coffee mug with steam rising on the oak desk. THE NEW OBJECT: a matte black steel travel bottle with a bamboo lid and a thin brushed steel band. Replace the target with the new object at the same position and scale, moving exactly as the target moved, with matching shadows and reflections. Keep everything else the same: the same people with the same faces, hair and clothes, the same background, the same camera move, framing and cuts, the same lighting and colour, nothing else added or removed. No on-screen text, no watermark. Use only the brand names, logos and trademarks the customer includes in their request; never add real-world brands, logos or trademarked designs the customer did not mention.
An origami fox on a turntable becomes cream headphones with walnut ear cups, turning with the turntable
Replace the origami fox on the turntable with a pair of cream over ear headphones: a cream padded headband, round walnut wood ear cups and cream ear cushions, standing upright at the same position and scale on the wooden turntable and turning with it, with matching shadows and reflections. Keep everything else the same: the same turntable, background, camera, framing and lighting.
