About meet your older self AI video on Cicadas

Meet your older self AI puts you and an older you in one shot: side by side on a park bench, walking a beach at sunset, or in a hug. Cicadas makes it from one clear photo of you with MiniMax H3 Max: vertical, 5, 10 or 15 seconds, with quiet natural sound. The model draws the older you from your photo: the same face shape, with white or grey hair and a lined face. It is a guess drawn by a model, not a forecast of how you will age. A 5-second clip is 63 credits. For the reverse, a hug with the child you were, use the younger-self page.

A park bench, you and you at seventy.

MiniMax H3 Max, 5 seconds with sound, vertical, from one photo of a woman; back in 29 seconds. She sits on a bench beside an older version of herself with grey hair and a lined face; they turn to each other, the older one puts an arm around her and they lean their heads together. Her face, curls and yellow jumper follow the photo, and the older one wears the same jumper. The sound is birdsong, with no voices or music.

A beach at sunset, walking with the older you.

MiniMax H3 Max, 5 seconds with sound, vertical, from one photo of a man; back in 33 seconds. He walks along the waterline beside an older version of himself with white hair; they talk and laugh and the older one pats him on the shoulder, in one continuous shot. His face, beard and green jacket follow the photo, and the older one wears the same outfit. The sound is waves with a man talking and laughing, and no music.

A garden in the morning, a hug with the older you.

MiniMax H3 Max, 5 seconds with sound, vertical, from one photo of a man; back in 40 seconds. He stands face to face with an older version of himself with white hair; they smile at each other and then hug, in one continuous shot. His short hair, beard and denim jacket follow the photo, and the older one wears the same jacket. The shot is close: at the start the edges of the frame cut both heads. The sound is birdsong and a few soft rustling sounds, with no voices or music.

Why use Cicadas for meet your older self AI video

You and an older you, from one photo

One photo is enough: the model draws you as you are and a second, older you beside you. In our three recorded clips the younger one kept the face, hair and clothes of the photo, and the older one had the same face shape with white or grey hair and a lined face. The older one came out in the same clothes each time.

Three scenes: a bench, a beach, a hug

Sit together on a park bench, walk along the waterline at sunset, or stand in a garden and hug. Each recorded clip is one continuous shot of 5 seconds. The beach clip has a man talking and laughing over the waves; the other two have birdsong and no voices.

They look at each other and smile, then the older one puts an arm around the younger one's shoulders. Keep the face, hair and clothes of the younger one as in the photo. Soft natural light, slow push-in, warm mood. Sound: soft birdsong and a light breeze, no music. No text.”

The adult from Image 1 walks along the waterline beside an older version of the same person, about seventy-five years old: the same face shape and eyes, white hair, a lined face, the same build, in similar clothes. They walk toward the camera talking and laughing, and the older one pats the younger one on the shoulder. Keep the face, hair and clothes of the younger one as in the photo.

The park bench scene (a woman) came back in 29 seconds, the beach walk (a man) in 33 seconds and the hug (another man) in 40 seconds, each as one continuous shot. In all three the younger one kept the face, hair and clothes of the photo; the older one had the same face shape with white or grey hair and a lined face, and wore the same clothes. The hug is framed close: at the start the edges of the frame cut both heads. Sound (two automated listeners): birdsong on the bench and in the garden with no voices; on the beach, waves with a man talking and laughing. The photos are AI-made and fictional. Real photos, glasses, 10 and 15 seconds and 768P were not run.
