About Shaking Head AI

Shaking Head AI turns one photo of your pet or yourself into the shaking head trend video. What it does, how it works and what it isn’t.

Last updated: 2026-10-28

Shaking Head AI turns one photo of a pet or a person into the shaking head trend: a smug, eyes-closed head shake followed by a sudden wide-eyed, tongue-out stare, repeated. You upload a picture of your cat, dog, any other animal or yourself, and get a 6, 10 or 15-second vertical 720p MP4 with an AI-made instrumental beat and no watermark.

What Shaking Head AI Is For

The shaking head trend took off on TikTok in October 2026 with AI-animated calves, then cats, dogs and other pets. Making one usually means finding a template or writing your own AI prompt. Shaking Head AI does one thing: it takes your photo and makes that video, with the moves already set up.

How It Works

  • One photo in. JPG, PNG, WebP or HEIC, up to 10 MB. Your photo becomes the first frame, so the face, the pose and the background are your own.
  • The AI animates the head. Videos are rendered with Seedance 2.0 Mini, an image-to-video model from ByteDance.
  • A vertical video out. 6, 10 or 15 seconds, MP4, 720p, 9:16, with an instrumental beat the AI makes and no watermark. It’s saved in your account, ready to download or share.
  • Credits, not subscriptions. You pay once for a credit pack, and credits never expire.

Our Policies

Failed renders and refused photos

A failed render is retried once automatically at no extra charge. If it fails again, the credits go back to your balance on their own. Photos the AI refuses get their credits back too.

Refunds for finished videos and unused credits

If you’re not happy with a finished video, email [email protected] and it’s refunded to your original payment method through Stripe. If you used only part of a pack, the credits you haven’t used are refunded the same way.

Watermark and your photos

  • Generated videos have no watermark.
  • Uploaded photos are deleted automatically 30 days after upload. Your videos stay in your account, and we delete the photo, the videos or your whole account sooner if you ask by email.
  • The AI provider that renders your video doesn’t keep your photo.
