What It Does
Face Swapper is a GPU-accelerated AI face replacement plugin built for professional VFX work. Apply it directly to footage in After Effects, Premiere Pro, Nuke, or DaVinci Resolve, select your source and target faces, and the plugin handles the swap locally on your machine with no internet connection required.
The primary use case is stunt double replacement: swap a stunt performer’s face with the lead actor’s in post, without rotoscoping or manual compositing frame by frame. Beyond that, it handles aging and de-aging through face blending, and can morph between multiple faces in a single shot.
Key Features
HyperSwap models. Face Swapper ships with three HyperSwap models (1A, 1B, 1C), each tuned for different quality and performance tradeoffs. All models are licensed for commercial use.
Face blending with animatable weight. Blend between two faces with a weight parameter that can be keyframed over time. This is the core mechanism behind aging and de-aging: feed in a younger or older reference photo of the same actor and animate the blend.
Render swap mask. Outputs a swap mask alongside the composited result, giving you control over how the swapped face integrates with surrounding footage and effects.
Automatic face selection and lighting adjustment. The plugin identifies faces in the frame automatically and adjusts the swapped face to match the lighting of the target, reducing the need for manual color correction.
Local GPU processing. Everything runs on your GPU with no cloud dependency. No footage leaves your machine.
Who It’s For
Face Swapper is positioned for VFX studios and professional editors working on commercial productions. The license explicitly covers commercial use, which matters when the output ends up in broadcast or film. It’s a practical tool for productions that rely heavily on stunt work, or for editorial teams handling age continuity across a character’s timeline.
Hobbyist or budget-conscious users may find the price steep compared to simpler alternatives.
