Can ChatGPT make a Shan Shen Bu dance video of my cat?
Updated · Shanshenbu Dance
No, not in the chat. When we asked ChatGPT on October 26, 2026 for a video of a cat doing the shan shen bu dance from a photo, it said it can't make the finished video itself and wrote a prompt to paste into another image-to-video app. To get the clip, upload one photo of your own cat or dog below: it stands up and does the flash step in a 5, 10 or 15-second video, from $4.99 for one video, ready in a few minutes.
What ChatGPT can and can't do here
- Make the video: no. In the chat you get text and pictures, not a video of your pet dancing. OpenAI's own video app, Sora, was shut down on April 26, 2026 (OpenAI Help Center).
- Write a prompt: yes. Upload your cat's photo and it describes a dance for you to paste into an image-to-video app, where you pay and retry there.
- Help with the post: yes, captions and hashtags. Pick the trend's original sound in TikTok when you post.
Why its prompt doesn't give you the flash step
The prompt ChatGPT wrote for us asks for "quick, rhythmic side steps and playful body movements". The flash step is a set routine, not any dance, and it's funny because the pet stands up and does it dead serious. The request this site sends to the video model spells out each move, with your pet standing on its hind legs:
- Your pet stands up on its hind legs, stiff and serious
- A sudden wide lunge to each side, snapped back
- A crouching back kick and a stare into the camera
Make it from one photo here
- Choose one photo. One pet, whole body from ears to paws, face clear, in good light; sitting or standing both work.
- Upload it above (no sign-in needed) and pick the length (5 to 15 seconds), quality and format. Tapping the button confirms the photo is allowed: photos of your own cat or dog only, one pet per photo.
- Pay for just that video (from $4.99, one payment, no subscription), or use credits: a 10-second 720p video uses 40 credits; credits from $6.99 for 50, or a monthly plan.
- Wait 2 to 5 minutes. The video shows up in My videos when it's ready.
- Download the MP4 (on iPhone, Save to Photos) and post it, labelled as AI-generated.
What it can't do
Animals don't really stand like this, so the AI invents the pose: legs and paws can look odd in fast moves, and long fur blurs. One pet per photo, your own; no people in the photo.
