How to make the Christmas Pajama Dance AI video

1. Photo 1 takes the spot on the right

The first photo replaces the person who starts on the right side of the frame, a little closer to the camera. She's in every second of the clip: the hip sways, the kick, the spin and the close-up at the end.

So photo 1 matters most. Pick a sharp photo taken from the front, with even light, no sunglasses and nobody else in it. Your face and hair come from this photo. The pink and green plaid pyjamas come from the clip.

2. Photo 2 takes the spot on the left (optional)

The second photo replaces the person who starts on the left, a step further back. Both dancers wear the same pyjamas, so we go by where each one starts. You'll each stay the same person all the way through.

Roles go by upload order, not gender or age. Skip photo 2 and the dancer on the left stays as she is in the original clip. Only use photos of adults who said yes; celebrities, public figures and kids aren't allowed.

3. Pick 7 seconds or the full 14

The 7-second cut is the first half of the dance: the sways, the rolling arms, the kick and the lean toward the camera. It stops just before the spin. It costs 5 credits.

The full 14 seconds is the whole clip, with the spin, the fist pumps and the ending right up at the lens, for 15 credits. Both are made in one go, with the original sound laid over the finished video.

The Try pack (5 credits, USD 4.99) covers one 7-second cut. For the full 14 seconds you need the Single pack (15 credits, USD 9.99).

4. Check your photos for the first few seconds

The clip opens with both of you head to toe, a few steps back from the phone. Your face is only a small part of the frame there. A blurry or dark photo shows up there first.

Put your two photos side by side before you upload. Both should be sharp, face the camera, and have similar light. Group photos and photos taken from far away work worse.

5. Generate, then watch the spin and the ending

Confirm you have the right to use the photos and press generate. It takes a few minutes. You can leave the page; the video shows up in My videos. If a render fails, the credits go back to your balance.

When it's done, look at the spin at about 8 seconds, where you turn your backs to the camera, and the last two seconds, where you come right up to the lens. That's where a problem is easiest to spot. If something's off, run it again. In our tests on 12 November 2026, all four runs came out right on the first try.

6. Post it and say it's AI

Download the MP4 from My videos. It's vertical 9:16 at 720p, with the sound already on it, so it fills the screen on TikTok, Reels and Shorts.

Say it's AI in your caption. If you name the sound, it's "Deck the Halls x Blow the Whistle" by DJ Izzy Duzzit, listed on TikTok as "original sound - djizzyduzzit".
