Make anyone in a photo dance
Pick a photo of one person and the Dance effect gets them moving: footwork, arm swings and hip and shoulder motion that suits how they look. Their face, outfit and body shape stay the same as in the picture. It's a fun one for birthday posts, group chats or surprising a friend who never dances.

- One person in the frame, standing rather than sitting
- Good lighting with the face clearly visible
Ideas for the prompt box

Questions about this effect
Does it work with group photos?
It's built for one dancer. A group photo can work, but one clear person in the frame gives the most natural moves.
Can I make my dog dance with this?
This effect is made for people. For cats, dogs and other pets, use the Pet Dance effect instead.
Does the video have music?
No. Dance videos are made at Standard quality, which doesn't include sound, so you can add your own track when you post it.
How long does it take?
Most videos are ready in a few minutes. You can leave the page; your video waits for you under Your videos.
What if a video fails?
If a video can't be made, its credits go back to your balance automatically.
