How to do the Raindance AI trend

Here is how to do the Raindance AI trend in three steps, from picking photos to posting with the right sound. The whole thing takes a few minutes of your time plus a short wait.

Step 1: Pick two good photos

The photo quality decides how well the Raindance AI video turns out.

  • Choose a clear, front-facing photo for each person.
  • Use one person (or one pet) per photo.
  • Pick good lighting and a visible face. Avoid sunglasses, heavy filters, and tiny faces in group shots.
  • Use "Person 1 · waits on the dock" for the one who sits at the end of the dock.
  • Use "Person 2 · the singer" for the one who sings in the beach close-ups.

Please do not upload photos of minors, public figures, or celebrities.

Step 2: Generate your Raindance AI video

Upload the photos and start the generation. It takes a few minutes. You get a vertical 9:16, 720p video of about 12 seconds with this arc: Person 1 on the dock, Person 2 singing in close-ups on the beach, you both on the sand, and a side-by-side ending at sunset.

New accounts get one free short preview, no card. After that, a single video is $9.99.

Step 3: Add the Raindance sound

Your download is silent on purpose. Add the sound in the app.

In TikTok

  1. Tap the plus button and upload your video.
  2. On the editing screen, tap Sounds.
  3. Search for "Raindance" by Dave and Tems, or pick the version from a trending video.
  4. Adjust the volume and trim the sound so it starts where you like.
  5. Add your caption and post.

In Instagram Reels

  1. Tap the plus button, choose Reel, and select your video.
  2. Tap the music icon (Add audio).
  3. Search for "Raindance" and choose the track.
  4. Pick the section that fits the 12 seconds.
  5. Add your caption and share.

If a sound is not available in your region, pick another version from a trending video.

Captions, hashtags, and labeling

  • Keep the caption short. Something like "We did the Raindance trend" works.
  • Use a few relevant tags, such as #raindance and #raindancetrend. A handful is enough.
  • Mention who is in it. People love the "tag your best friend" angle.
  • Turn on the AI-generated content label in TikTok or Instagram so viewers know it is AI.

Questions about the Raindance AI trend

How do I do the Raindance AI trend?

Upload two clear photos to Raindance AI, one for the person on the dock and one for the singer. Download the finished 9:16 video, then add the Raindance sound in TikTok or Reels and post.

Which photo should go in which slot?

Put the person who waits on the dock in the first slot and the person who sings in the second. If you are making it as a gift, the singer is often the one doing the serenading.

Why is my downloaded video silent?

That is by design. We never include the song. You add the trending Raindance sound inside the app when you post.

Do I have to label the video as AI?

We recommend it. TikTok and Instagram both offer an AI-generated content label, and using it keeps your post honest and avoids confusion.

Can I make more than one version?

Yes. Buy a 3 or 10 video pack and try different photos, such as a couple version and a pet version.
