Updated:
Short answer
Copy the prompt below into Kling, attach a photo of your dancer as the reference image, and generate. It lists six timed shots and asks for a party beat with knock sounds and no singing. It names no person, brand or account from the original clips. Expect to try more than once, or use MimicZip.

Copy this prompt
Image-to-video, 9:16, about 11 seconds. Reference image 1 is the DANCER. Keep the DANCER's face, hair, skin tone, body shape and the clothes shown in the image. If the subject is an animal, keep its species; it stands upright on its hind legs for the whole dance, hops on one hind leg, knocks in the air with a front paw and spreads both front legs wide at the end, in a cute, natural way. If the subject is a toy or a drawn character, bring it to life as a living version that keeps its colours and shape. Setting: a bare, empty room with light grey walls and a warm wooden floor, a white door frame at the left edge of the picture and a small white chest of drawers against the right wall. Soft, even daylight. Nothing else in the room, no readable text, signs or logos. Camera: a phone on a tripod at chest height, the DANCER's whole body in frame from head to feet in the middle of the picture. The camera never moves, never zooms and never cuts: one continuous take. The DANCER keeps a completely serious, deadpan face and dances nonstop, never standing still. Shot 1 (0-2 s): facing the camera with knees slightly bent and arms dropped down and out, then hops on the right leg with the left knee lifted to hip height, knocking twice with the right fist on an invisible door at head height, while turning to show the right side. Shot 2 (2-3.5 s): steps down and turns back to face the camera, kicks the right heel forward low and flings both arms wide and down, palms open. Shot 3 (3.5-5 s): turns to show the left side, hopping on the right foot and pumping the left knee with small forward kicks. Shot 4 (5-7.5 s): turns the back to the camera, keeps hopping and knocking on the invisible door at head level, whips the head over the shoulder to glare at the camera, then knocks again side-on. Shot 5 (7.5-10 s): turns back to face the camera and lands in a wide stance, then hops from foot to foot kicking the heels forward, left, right, left, arms held wide and low. Shot 6 (10-11 s): freezes in the final pose: wide stance, knees soft, both arms stretched down and out at 45 degrees with open palms, staring straight into the lens without a smile. Audio: a cheesy, bouncy accordion-and-synth party dance instrumental at about 124 BPM with a steady four-on-the-floor kick, and a light knock-knock sound on each knock. No singing, no lyrics, no speech. Photorealistic, natural motion, no text, no subtitles, no logos, no watermark.
How to use it
- Attach your photo as reference image 1. For a pet, keep the second line as it is and the pet will stand up and use its front paws.
- Keep the shots in this order and the timings as they are, so the moves can line up with the original sound later.
- Leave names and brands out. Kling can filter them, and a name or a likeness can bring rights problems, 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 trend or 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 trend exactly?
Not exactly. Faces, motion and timing change with the tool, the model version and your photo. Treat the prompt as a starting point.
Do I have to write a prompt on this site?
No. MimicZip uses a fixed scene, so you only add a photo and press the make button.
