## What it does

You stand on a bright stage while colored lights sweep behind you. You break into a crisp pop routine with sharp arm moves, a quick spin and a step toward the camera, then finish on a pose and a smile.

## From our test

Our sample was a young man in a white tee and black trousers in a white studio. He dances through sharp moves with red, green and blue light glows around him, finishing with one foot lifted.

## Tips for the best photo

- Use a full-body photo so your arms and legs can move freely.
- A plain background works well, since the stage lights are added.
- Wear fitted or simple clothes so the moves are easy to read.

## Ideas for using it

- A dance teacher posts a short routine teaser for a class page.
- A friend turns a party photo into a birthday dance clip.
- A fan makes a goofy audition video for their group chat.
