Times Square Billboard AI turns one photo into a video of your face on a billboard: a fashion-campaign poster of you on a huge vertical screen in Times Square at night in the rain, then the camera pulls back to reveal the wet square, yellow taxis and glowing screens. A 10-second vertical AI picture, not a real ad.

Which photos work best
Full body
The poster shows you head to toe, so a full-body photo looks the best.
A clear face
The clip opens close on the screen: the face should be sharp.
Your best outfit
You appear in the outfit from your photo, styled as a campaign.
What is the Times Square billboard trend?
It is a trend of putting yourself on the most famous screens in the world: a close shot of your poster, then the reveal that it towers over Times Square. People use it for birthdays, launches and pure showing off.
Our Times Square billboard generator makes it from one photo of you: your face and look as a fashion campaign, the rainy night, the taxis and the pull-back. Some search for it as your face on a billboard AI.

Questions
Is Times Square Billboard AI free?
No. A template video uses 750 credits at 480p (1,500 in HD), about $10 with a credit pack. Starter and Pro plans pay half (375) and Unlimited pays 30%: 225 credits a video, about $2.25. The 100 free credits you get when you sign up are not enough for one video.
Will this really show up in Times Square?
No. It is an AI-made video of a billboard, not a real ad: nothing is booked or shown on any screen in Times Square.
Whose photo can I use?
Adults only: photos of children are not supported. Your own photo, or a friend’s who agreed to be in it. No famous people. Uploads go through an automatic safety check.
Does the video have sound?
Yes: your video comes with the trend’s sound, so you can post it to TikTok as it is. If TikTok flags the sound for copyright, swap in the same song from TikTok’s sound library when you post.
Can I add my own text to the billboard?
Not in this template: the screen shows your poster only. Add a caption on TikTok if you want words.
Can I post it on Reels or Shorts?
Yes. The Times Square billboard AI clip is vertical 9:16, the shape TikTok, Reels and Shorts play full screen.
How long does it take?
Two to three minutes. You can close the page: the video waits for you in My creations.
