The Before and after trend
The look before, the clap or cut, then the result.
You can film the Before and after trend yourself in three steps, below. Or skip filming: vtrends puts you into one of these videos from one photo of your face, for $9 per video, ready in about 15 minutes.
How to film the Before and after trend
- Match the framing. Same spot, same height, same distance for both shots.
- Film the before. Hold still for a beat so the change is clear.
- Film the after and cut. Join them on the beat, with a clap or a hand over the lens.
- Avoid this. Different lighting. It makes the change look edited rather than real.
Don’t want to film it?
Pick any video below, add one photo of your face, and get the same video with you in it, original sound included. $9 per video, no account, rerun or refund if it fails.

Questions
What is the Before and after trend?
The look before, the clap or cut, then the result. It is one of the formats people are copying on TikTok right now; the examples above have 710.5k views between them.
Can I do the Before and after trend without filming it?
Yes. Pick one of the examples, upload a clear photo of your face, and vtrends renders the same video with you in it. Outfit and location photos are optional. Your video renders after you unlock it.
How much does it cost?
Setting it up is free. The finished video is $9 with a small watermark or $19 without. It is a one-time payment, not a subscription.
Will it look exactly like me?
It works best with a sharp, front-facing photo in good light. Fast spins, faces turned away and heavy face paint are harder, and the result can look less like you in those moments. If a render clearly doesn’t show you, we rerun or refund it.
Are these the original videos?
Yes. They are public TikTok posts, credited and linked to each creator. Your version is a new video generated with your face; the original creator’s video is not changed.
