1Who is in the elevator?

Two people only. The voices are the template’s, not yours; the model is asked to move your mouths with them.

2Quality

The free preview is 480p. When you unlock it, you choose 480p or HD 720p.

Why we ask

Putting someone’s face in a video without their OK can break privacy and image-rights laws, and that responsibility is yours. So you confirm three things: you are the person or have their OK, they are an adult, and they are not a celebrity or a politician. We keep the time you confirmed with the request.

The scene, beat by beat

Fourteen seconds in one elevator, wide frame, the camera still. The prompt asks for the template take’s turns of the head and its mouths; we read the take at one frame a second.

    Left, in big black headphones, looking ahead; right glances over.

  2. 1 to 2 s

    Left pulls the headphones off and lets them hang at the neck.

  3. 2 to 5 s

    The two turn to each other; right smiles and starts to talk.

  4. 5 to 10 s

    Right talks with a small gesture; left listens, eyes on the right.

  5. 10 to 14 s

    Smiles, more words from the right, the two still facing each other.

  6. Sound

    The template take’s own audio, voices included; the prompt asks who talks, and when, to follow it.

Where the I love the Smiths trend comes from

The scene is from (500) Days of Summer (2009): in an office elevator, Summer hears the song leaking from Tom’s headphones and says she loves the Smiths. The song is "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out", from The Queen Is Dead (1986). Director Marc Webb talked about the scene and the Smiths with NPR in July 2009 (transcript).

Couples have acted it out on TikTok for years, often ending in a kiss; @lui.linni posted "I said I love the smiths" on 25 June 2026, at 2.6 million plays on 9 November. In November 2026 it became a CapCut template that puts two photos in an AI elevator. More under #ilovethesmithstrend.

The elevator effect here follows the template take by @battos13 (5 November 2026): no film footage, no film audio and no Smiths recording. The voices are the template’s, so they will not sound like you. It is an independent tool with no tie to the film, its studio, the band, the creators above, TikTok or CapCut.

FAQ

Questions people ask

What is I love the Smiths AI?

I love the Smiths AI remakes the trend’s elevator scene from two photos: one of you pulls off big headphones, the other talks and smiles. Here the video is 14 seconds, 16:9, with the template take’s voices.

What is the I love the Smiths trend?

People re-enact the elevator scene of (500) Days of Summer, where Summer says she loves the Smiths after hearing them through Tom’s headphones. Couples have acted it out for years (@lui.linni), and since November 2026 there is a CapCut template that does it from photos.

What does "I love the Smiths" mean in the trend?

In the film it is the line that starts Tom’s crush. In the posts it is shorthand for meeting someone through music, said with a smile, and sometimes a joke about falling too fast.

What is the "I said I love the Smiths" version?

The couples’ remake: one says the line, the other does not react, so it is said again, often with a kiss at the end, as @lui.linni posted it. Those are filmed, not AI; the effect here is the elevator take instead.

Which AI makes the I love the Smiths video from photos?

This I love the Smiths AI on Bulin47Video.io does: two photos in, a 14-second 16:9 video of you two in the elevator, from a credited template take, on Wan 3.0 AI video. The effect adds no famous face: both people are drawn from your photos, unlike many template promos.

What song is in the elevator scene?

"There Is a Light That Never Goes Out" by the Smiths, from The Queen Is Dead (1986) (Wikipedia). This video does not use the recording; it carries the template take’s own audio.

Will the voices sound like us?

No. The voices are the template take’s; the video model is asked to move your mouths with them, and that part is not tested yet. Turn the sound off and add your own in TikTok if you like, from the silent copy.

Can I do it with one photo?

No, it takes two: left and right, one photo each.

How much is an I love the Smiths AI video? Is it free?

10 credits at 480p or 22 at HD 720p for both of you; the $9.99 Single pack makes 1 video at 480p. Each Google account gets one free 2-second preview first. See pricing.

Why is it wide and not vertical?

The template take is 16:9, like the film. TikTok shows wide videos with bars, or you can crop it in its editor.

How long does it take?

Usually 4 to 15 minutes. You can leave the page; the video waits in My videos.

Is the video real?

No, it is AI. Turn on TikTok’s AI-generated label when you post; see the TikTok AI-generated label.

What happens to our photos?

They are used for your video only and deleted after 7 days. Details in the privacy policy.
