Missed Train Dance prompt for Veo: a copyable prompt without names

Updated:

Short answer

Copy the prompt below into Veo and attach a photo of an adult or a pet. It covers the sprint, the closing doors, the kneel and the dance, and asks for an instrumental with no voices, so you can add the sound later. It names no person, song or account. Expect a few tries, or use MimicZip.

Copy this prompt

A handheld phone video filmed by a friend walking backwards, 9:16, about 15 seconds. The person or pet from the reference image, keeping their face, fur or hair and clothes, sprints down the stairs of a modern underground station, reaches the platform just as the bright yellow train doors slide shut, throws both arms up, drops to their knees, spins round on the floor and gets up close to the lens, then walks the platform clutching their head and shouting, and when the beat drops dances joyfully, ending in a low pose staring at the camera. Blurred commuters in the background, no line numbers, logos or readable words, they stay behind the yellow line. A pet stands up on its hind legs to dance. Sound: footsteps, a door chime, a punchy electronic dance beat with a bass drop, no vocals. No text, no logos.

How to use it

  • Attach your photo as reference image 1. Use an adult or a pet, never a child.
  • Add the trending sound in TikTok afterwards. A text prompt cannot place each beat exactly, so expect to nudge the sound.
  • Leave names, sound titles and brands out. Tools can filter them, so the prompt describes the action instead.
  • Tools change often, so check the length and aspect ratio your tool supports and adjust the first line.

Questions people ask

Why does the prompt not name the original poster?

Video tools filter names, and a named prompt can be refused or can infringe rights. This page is independent and not affiliated with the people who posted the clips.

Will the result match the trending sound?

Only roughly. Without a timing guide, the beats drift. MimicZip uses the viral clip as a timing guide, which is why its videos line up better.

Do I have to write a prompt on this site?

No. MimicZip uses a fixed scene, so you only add a photo, pick an option and press the make button.
