Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized digital content creation, allowing anyone to generate stunning, lifelike images of themselves—whether as a superhero, in different outfits, or even in fantasy settings. In this guide, I’ll show you how to train an AI model with your photos and generate realistic AI portraits using Flux Laura on Replicate.com. Plus, I’ll teach you how to turn those images into AI-generated videos for free!
What You’ll Need:
✔ 10-20 high-quality photos of yourself (clear, well-lit, different angles)
✔ A Replicate.com account (for AI image generation)
✔ DreamInCapCut (for AI video animation)
✔ A few dollars for AI model training (costs ~$1-2)
Step 1: Train Your AI Model on Replicate.com
1. Go to Replicate.com & Sign Up
- Visit Replicate.com and create an account.
- Add billing details (training costs ~$1-2, and each image costs ~$0.04).
2. Prepare Your Training Images
- Gather 10-20 clear photos of yourself (face-forward, different expressions).
- Rename them in this format:
A_photo_of_[YourName]_1.jpg(e.g.,A_photo_of_John_1.jpg). - Compress them into a ZIP file.
3. Upload & Train the Model
- Go to Flux Laura Model.

Step 2: Generate AI Images of Yourself
Once your model is trained:
- Go to your Replicate dashboard and select your trained model.
- Click “Run” and enter a text prompt like:
- “TOK as Iron Man, realistic, detailed face, cinematic lighting”
- “TOK as a futuristic cyberpunk hacker, neon lights”
- “TOK as Thor, holding Mjolnir, stormy background”
(Replace “TOK” with your trigger word.)
- Click “Run”—each image takes ~10 seconds and costs ~$0.04.
