What is the Raindance AI trend?
The Raindance AI trend recasts one 28-second moment from the music video for "Raindance" by Dave featuring Tems. A man in a dark green shirt sits on a wooden pier at golden hour, turns his head and sees a woman in a pale green halter dress walking toward him at the far end. Then she sings by the water, and the two of them sit together on the sand.
Remakes keep the pier, the dress, the light and the cut from pier to water to sand, and swap the two people for a couple, two friends or two family members. It works because the moment is a small story on its own: someone looks back and the person they were waiting for is there.
On Jump on the Trend you add two photos, one for the person on the pier and one for the person in the green dress. You see a free still preview of the two of you in the scene first, then get the full 28-second clip with the original sound.
Some people spell it "Rain Dance AI". It's the same pier scene: "Raindance" is Dave's song featuring Tems, released on 23 Oct 2025 on his album The Boy Who Played the Harp.

Which app makes the Raindance AI video?
Creators use video models that take a reference photo. This page runs one for you, checks the faces and keeps the original sound, so there is nothing to download or edit.
How many photos do I need for Raindance?
One clear photo per person you swap in. This trend has room for 2. Add up to 3 photos of each person for a closer likeness.
What happens to my photos?
They are stored privately, sent to the video model through short-lived links, never used for training, and deleted with your video after 30 days.
Who goes where?
Photo 1 is the person sitting on the pier who looks back. Photo 2 is the person in the green dress who walks down the pier and sings by the water.
Can two friends do it instead of a couple?
Yes. The roles don't need to be a couple, and it often lands better as a joke with a friend.
Do we have to wear green?
No. The video keeps the outfits from the original scene, so your photos only need to show your faces clearly.
Is this the Raindance dance trend?
No, that's a different one. The Raindance dance challenge is a routine to the song's bridge; Songfacts dates it to a TikTok post on 14 Dec 2025. The AI trend recasts the pier scene from the music video: you add a photo of each of you, and the moves, the camera and the clip's own sound stay, so nobody learns any steps.
What does the Raindance trend mean?
"Raindance" is a love song (Songfacts), and the trend plays it as a 28-second story: a man on a pier looks back and sees the person he was waiting for, they dance at the end of the pier, and they end up side by side on the sand. Remakes change who's in it: a couple, two friends playing it for drama, or parents for their anniversary.
Where was the Raindance music video filmed?
In Lagos, Nigeria (antiMusic, 10 Jan 2026; Songfacts; Wikipedia). The trend uses the video's wooden pier, the water and the beach. You don't need to go anywhere or film anything: add a photo of each of you, and the scene, the outfits and the light stay as they are.
