Groove Dance Video: Make a Photo Move to the Beat

The groove dance template takes one photo and one dance motion clip and merges them: your character picks up the steps, the hips, and the timing of the reference while keeping its own face and outfit. It is the shortest path from a still image to a dance loop built for a feed.

How it works

Three Steps from Input to Finished Clip

Every DomoAI workflow starts from a prompt and an optional reference file. Nothing has to be rebuilt by hand.

Step 1

Upload the character photo

A full-body or three-quarter shot gives the dance room to move. If the photo is cropped at the waist, pick a routine that stays in the upper body instead.

Step 2

Attach the dance motion clip

Choose a groove motion reference - the template library keeps short, loopable routines - and type @ in the prompt to target it explicitly.

Step 3

Generate the loop

Render the dance, regenerate if a hand or foot slips out of frame, then download the loop and pair it with a track in your editor.

Frequently asked questions

Questions About This Workflow

Answers about inputs, limits, resolution, and how credits are used.

Do I need to supply a dance clip?+

The groove template pairs your photo with a motion reference. The template library includes short dance routines, and you can also attach your own clip of up to 15 seconds - the model follows its timing and footwork.

Will the dance keep my character consistent?+

Yes. The face, hair, and outfit come from your photo, and the reference only supplies the movement. Busy patterns and very fine jewellery are the first things to soften, so simplify those details if they must stay crisp.

Does the video include music?+

The render is silent. Generate the loop first, then lay your own track underneath in a video editor - the template is timed so common beat grids line up with the routine out of the box.

Can the loop repeat seamlessly?+

Groove templates are built from loopable routines, so trimming the first or last frame in an editor gives you a clip you can repeat for as long as the track needs.
