Posting your wizard cat

01

Caption ideas

Play up the wizard: "Casting a spell on the weekend", "The familiar has entered the chat", "Level 1 wizard, level 100 moves". For Halloween: "Costume: sorted" or "Trick or treat, but make it dance". Short captions work best; the dance is the joke.

02

Pick the cover frame

The first two seconds give the clearest frontal face and the paw wave, which makes a recognisable cover. Avoid a frame from the spin, where the face is side-on.

03

Where to put the text

The clip is portrait 9:16. The top third is mostly dark night sky, which is the natural place for caption text. The dancer fills the middle and the promenade the bottom, where the platform buttons sit.

04

Sound

Your video keeps "She Bugging (Whatchu Gonna Do)", and the moves land on its beats, so posting it as is works best. If you swap in a spooky Halloween sound, expect the bounces to drift off the new beat.

05

Make it a series

Because the template keeps each pet's species and coat, running it once per pet makes an easy series: the cat, the dog, then yourself in the hat. Same setting, same moves, different dancer.

06

Label it

Say that the video is AI-made, in the caption or with the platform's AI label, and use photos only of your own pets or of people who agreed to appear.

How to make it

Add a photo for the dancer.

  1. 01

    Add your pet's photo

    Upload one clear photo of your pet, or of yourself or someone who agreed to appear. A full-body photo with the face, ears, legs and tail visible works best.

  2. 02

    Review quality and price

    Choose 480p, 720p or 1080p and review the quote. It includes the full video, your photo preparation and three scene preparations.

  3. 03

    Check the dance

    Watch that the face, coat and markings stay your pet's through the spin and the kicks and that the hat stays on, then download your portrait MP4 with the original song.

01

Your pet is the wizard

One photo casts the dancer. A cat stays a cat and a dog stays a dog, with its own face, coat, markings and tail, dancing upright on its hind legs. A person can take the role too and dances with hands and feet.

02

The hat comes with it

The charcoal felt wizard hat with tiny silver stars and the small bell collar are the look of the trend, so every dancer wears them, whatever the photo shows.

03

The whole dance, on the beat

All 17 seconds from a fixed camera: the paw wave, the chest-high paw groove, the quick spin, the side kicks and the last bounce, timed to the original song.

04

An AI source reference

The preview is the AI reel the trend comes from. It is the motion and timing reference, not an Oakgen result.

Questions & answers

What is the Wizard Cat Dance AI trend?

It is a 17-second portrait AI clip of a chubby ginger cat in a tall charcoal wizard hat, standing on its hind legs on a riverside promenade at night and dancing to "She Bugging (Whatchu Gonna Do)": paw waves, a bouncy groove with the paws at the chest, a spin and a couple of side kicks, with the lit skyline reflected in the river behind. Oakgen's template puts your pet, or you, in the cat's place and keeps the hat, the setting, the moves and the song.

Why is it called the wizard cat?

"Wizard cat" is the name the internet already uses for AI images of a chunky orange cat in a pointed wizard hat; the meme spread in 2024. This dance clip uses the same look, so we call the template Wizard Cat Dance.

What is the song?

"She Bugging (Whatchu Gonna Do)" by Mr Flintstone and Khantrast, identified from the audio. Your video keeps that original soundtrack. Nobody in the video sings or lip-syncs; the dancer only dances.

Does it work with a dog or another pet?

Yes. The template keeps the uploaded animal's species, coat and markings and has it dance upright on its hind legs in the wizard hat. Bodies very different from a round, chubby cat vary more, so review the video before sharing.

Can I use a photo of myself?

Yes. A person takes the dancer's place and dances with hands and feet in the wizard hat. Use your own photo or one of someone who agreed to appear.

Does my pet have to wear the hat?

The hat and the bell collar are the trend's look, so they are added to every dancer. Your photo sets everything else: species, face, coat, markings and size.

Whose photo can I use?

Your own pet, yourself, or a person who agreed to be in the video. Do not upload photos of celebrities, public figures or anyone who has not consented, and label AI videos clearly when you share them.

How long is the video?

17 seconds in portrait 9:16, one fixed shot from the first paw wave to the last bounce.

Is the preview generated by Oakgen?

No. It is the source AI reel used as the reference, not an Oakgen result. Review your pet's face, paws and the hat before sharing.

How much does it cost?

3,485 credits per 720p video. The quote includes your photo preparation, three scene references and the complete video. Check it before generating.
