Meme Video Templates

Below, sorted by the mood of the joke rather than by meme name, because most people know the feeling they want before they know what the format is called. Newest puts the latest templates first, and once people have made clips this week, Popular sorts by how many finished. Each template lists what happens, what it needs, how long it runs and what it costs. Reactions suit deadpan jokes about work or family. Entrances suit a friend’s birthday or a reveal. POV clips suit relatable late-night moments, and dances and pet clips carry a joke with almost no caption. Before-and-after is the one gap so far: use the Describe tab with two photos for now. To judge whether a format is still fresh, search its name in TikTok and sort by recent posts.

Use a template. A template clip gives the model the motion, cuts and timing to follow, so your version keeps the beats people recognise, while a text prompt gives it only a description and the result drifts. Six of the eight generator templates follow a motion reference, as do Chipmunks Dance, Tecktonik Dance and Jisoo Addicted Dance, so only the movement carries over and your photo supplies the look. Singing Pet and Surprise Backflip use no reference clip, because the model handles them well from a written scene. Templates with a reference also put the meme’s own sound back on the finished clip, which matters more than most people expect.

Use the selfie. For close framing such as Opa Opa or That Boy, a selfie is ideal, since those clips stay near the face anyway. For full-body moves, the model continues your clothes and body from the photo, but it has to guess, so results vary. A clear, front-facing photo with even light, one person and nothing covering the face works best. If you can, step back and take a photo from the knees up, which gives the model more to work from. Avoid sunglasses, heavy filters, group shots and photos cut off at the chin. Everything runs in a phone browser, so there is no app to install.

Templates are fixed on purpose. You cannot change the moves or the shape, every template is vertical 9:16, and each one offers only the lengths listed on its card.

• AI clips are short: 5 to 15 seconds, depending on the template or prompt (with Seedance 2.5 only: 16 on the Tecktonik dance AI template, 25 on Lonyo dance AI).
• It makes the clip, not the edit: there is no timeline, text overlay, joining or sound-effect library.
• Faces, hands and fast motion can warp, and small or group photos do worst.
• There is no before-and-after template yet. Use the Describe tab with two photos.
• Photos of children, well-known people or anyone who has not agreed are not allowed.
• Clips download as MP4 only, with no GIF export.
