Does the camera move?

Yes. It circles about halfway around the pair and ends on both faces in three-quarter view.

Can it work with a group photo?

It is written for two people. With more people the model has to pick a pair, so results are less predictable.

Can I use a different model, or make it longer?

Yes. Five seconds on MiniMax H3 is the default; before you generate you can set up to 15 seconds or 2K on H3, or switch to another model listed for this effect in Studio, such as Wan 3.0 for up to 30 seconds. The Generate button shows the updated price first. Our samples were made on MiniMax H3, so other models may interpret the prompt a little differently.

Will it change what's in my photo?

No. The effect only adds motion, light and atmosphere; everyone in the photo stays exactly as they appear in it. The default model doesn't filter photos. Some models you can switch to in Studio apply their own content filters and may turn a photo down.

Is my result private?

Yes. Your upload and the finished clip stay private to your account and never appear on a public page.

Each effect defaults to a five-second clip priced in US dollars on the Generate button. Before you run it, you can switch to a different model, adjust the length, or change the resolution in Studio, and the price on the Generate button updates to match. An ordinary failed or expired run normally releases the reserved amount. For a content refusal, follow the selected model’s billing policy.

Will this effect change how the person in my photo looks?

Your photo anchors the subject; the effect adds the motion and look described in its prompt. Check the face, hands and clothing in the result. If a gesture distorts them, try a clearer crop or a simpler movement.

Can I upload a photo of someone else?

Only one you have the right to use, and never to make intimate content of a real person without their documented consent. The content policy has the full rule.

What this effect sends

This is the full prompt, word for word. Copy it, or open it in the generator and change anything you like.

Within the first second the two of them start dancing, swaying together in time. By the second second one leads the other into a full spin under their raised arm, their hair swinging out wide with the turn, then they come back together into the dance hold, close and laughing. The camera circles half around them through the whole move and ends on both faces in three-quarter view, smiling at each other. Both people stay exactly as they appear in the photo.

Pictures that work best

Wider than a close-up helps. Waist-up or three-quarter framing lets the spin read.
Loose hair makes the turn more visible.
Both faces should be clear in the original so they survive the camera circling around.
If you want a calmer clip, remove the spin in the prompt and keep the sway.

How it works

01
Add one photo
Choose the photo to match the example: include both people for a shared gesture, and keep the face and any hands involved clearly visible. Upload your own photo or start with a Slow Dance sample.
02
Check the price
Slow Dance defaults to a 5-second clip for $0.185. Swap the model or change the length and resolution before you run — the price on the button updates to match, and that's the whole cost of the clip.
03
Generate
Your Slow Dance clip renders in the background, lands in History and is never published.

Do the move yourself

Slow Dance keeps one version of this shot. To give Slow Dance your own motion or ending, write it yourself in Image to Video, starting from the prompt above.

What it does to your photo

Within the first second the two of them start dancing, swaying together in time. By the second second one leads the other into a full spin under their raised arm, their hair swinging out wide with the turn, then they come back together into the dance hold, close and laughing. The camera circles half around them through the whole move and ends on both faces in three-quarter view, smiling at each other. Both people stay exactly as they appear in your photo throughout.

In our test runs on MiniMax H3, a woman in a red satin gown and a man in a black tuxedo in a gilded ballroom began swaying together, and by second two he spun her under his raised arm with her skirt flaring out before they came back into the dance hold laughing, ending in three-quarter view smiling at each other.

Needs both people visible, and chest-up or waist-up framing works best. Loose hair swinging out shows off the spin. Seated or tightly cropped photos leave little room to dance. Photos with only one person, or with the two far apart, can make the hold look odd. The effect leaves both people exactly as they are in your photo and only adds the motion.

It runs on MiniMax H3 for five seconds by default, and H3 itself goes up to 15 seconds and 2K if you want more. Studio also lets you move the same prompt to another model before you generate, such as Seedance 2.0 or Wan 3.0, and the price on the Generate button updates with every change. Our samples were all made on MiniMax H3, so other models will read the prompt in their own way.

Good for wedding and anniversary posts, couple portraits, and warm, playful clips.

Open the prompt in the generator and change "a full spin under their raised arm" to "a gentle sway side to side" for a calmer version with no spin.
