Face Swap

Quick answer

Face swap is an AI technique that transfers one person’s face onto another person’s photo while keeping the original pose, outfit, lighting, and background. Legitimate uses include creative self-portraits, casting visualizations, and entertainment edits of your own photos. Responsible platforms, VdoBloom included, require that swaps respect consent and content policies — using someone’s face without permission is prohibited.

Technically, face swap models detect facial landmarks in both images, then blend the source identity into the target’s geometry and lighting so the result looks native to the photo.

The consent point is not a footnote: swapping in a real person’s face without their permission can be deceptive and, in many jurisdictions, unlawful. Use your own face or faces you have explicit permission to use, and review the platform’s terms before publishing.

VdoBloom offers face swap between two photos within its content policy, alongside related tools like AI headshots.
