End of Watch Locker Scene AI: Show Off Your Gear Like Officer Taylor

Open this page, upload one clear photo and press Generate. You get an 11-second widescreen video with sound of you showing your gear to a handheld camera in a police locker room, usually within a few minutes.

The End of Watch locker scene trend restages the opening of the 2012 film End of Watch, where Jake Gyllenhaal's Officer Brian Taylor films himself in the locker room and holds each piece of gear up to the camera. TikTok users remake it with their own stuff, and AI templates now let anyone star in it from one photo.

It's also called the Jake Gyllenhaal locker scene, the Jake Gyllenhaal police meme and the End of Watch locker room meme. Those are the names TikTok uses for its search pages, and AI remakes are tagged #lockerscenetrend.

0–1.5s, you hold a red training pistol up to the camera; 1.5–3s, a radio in each hand; 3–4.5s, a folding knife pushed toward the lens; 4.5–6s, a small item held right up to the camera; 6–7.5s, a flashlight shone into the lens until the frame turns white; 7.5–9s, both radios again; 9–11s, you lower your hands and grin at the camera.

About $2.66 for one video. That is 240 credits for an 11-second, 480p widescreen clip with sound; our test rendered in about 4 minutes.

Four reasons: you look like your photo, it costs less, you get a clean video, and it's ready to post.

Looks like you: your face, hair and outfit stay yours through every close-up and the flashlight flare, and you're never put into a uniform you weren't wearing. This setup worked on our first run, so you don't spend credits on retries.

Costs less: about $2.66 per video with a one-time $5.99 pack and no subscription, the lowest price among the tools we found with a listed price.

Clean video: no watermark on any plan, free credits included, and if a render fails your credits come back automatically.

Ready to post: 11 seconds with sound, so it goes straight to TikTok, Reels or Shorts with no editing or dubbing.

No. The video stars you, made by AI from your photo. It contains no footage from End of Watch and neither Jake Gyllenhaal nor Michael Peña appears in it.

There is a red training pistol, the inert prop police use for drills, shown for about a second at the start. The rest of the gear is two radios, a folding knife and a flashlight.

No. You wear whatever you're wearing in your photo. We tested it with a white suit, and the suit stayed in every frame, so the photo decides the look.

Usually it's sunglasses, a side profile or a small face cropped from a group photo, and the close handheld camera makes it worse. Use a sharp, single-person photo facing the camera, then run this template again.

No. It's a fan-made template, not affiliated with End of Watch, its studios, Jake Gyllenhaal or TikTok. Only upload photos of yourself or adults who agreed; photos of celebrities, public figures or children aren't allowed.

Say it's AI, tag anyone who appears in it and use #lockerscenetrend, #endofwatch and #jakegyllenhaal. If you want the trend's audio, pick the locker scene sound that's trending in the TikTok sound library when you post.

Your photos and videos stay in your account, so you can download them again from My Videos at any time. They are never used to train AI models and are not sold or shared, except with the video model provider that renders your clip.
