Step-by-step: copy a trending dance onto your own character or photo with AI motion control, plus tips for clips that actually go viral.

How motion control works

Motion control takes the movement from a reference clip (a dance, a walk, a gesture) and performs it with a different character: one you designed, one saved from your own photo, or any clear portrait. The result keeps the timing and moves of the original, and on Kling motion control the original soundtrack too.

Step by step

  • Open Viral videos and pick a trending template, or upload your own clip (MP4, MOV or WebM, up to 30 seconds) in Motion Control.
  • Pick your character, or add a photo showing head, shoulders and upper body.
  • Check the price (set by the clip's length) and press Generate.
  • Download the vertical clip and post it with the trend's sound and hashtag.

Tips for better results

  • Choose reference clips with one dancer, full body in frame and a steady camera.
  • Use a character photo with a similar framing to the dancer.
  • Save clips you reuse as My templates so you never upload them twice.
  • Only use clips you have the rights to.
