Steady Dancer: AI motion transfer
Transfer dance moves from a reference video to a character image with smooth animations
Video is paid per clip from your wallet, no subscription. The studio shows the price before you pay, and top ups start at $5.

Key features
Steady Dancer turns a still image you upload into video inside Enhance AI. It renders at a resolution you choose, 720p by default. Steady Dancer is built by Lightricks. On Enhance AI it runs on the same account as every other model, with no separate subscription.
Resolution
Choose 480p or 720p before you render. A lower resolution costs less, so test a prompt low and rerender the keeper at the top setting. The studio shows the price for the setting you picked before anything is charged.
Input modes
Steady Dancer starts from a still image you upload. The first frame is locked to your image, so a product, a face or a location stays as you shot it, and the prompt only describes how the scene should move. Upload the sharpest source you have.

What people make with Steady Dancer
Matching choreography across shots
When several shots need the same movement, drive them all from one reference clip through Steady Dancer. The timing stays identical across every render, which makes the shots cut together cleanly and keeps a group scene or a multi character piece in step from start to finish.
Dance and pose transfer
Film a dance or a movement once and Steady Dancer puts it on another person, a character or a product mascot. The motion comes from your reference video and the look comes from your image, so a single performance can drive a whole set of characters without filming each one.
Animating a still character
Turn an illustration or a character sheet into a moving figure by giving Steady Dancer a reference video of the motion you want. Studios use it to test how a design moves before committing to full animation, and small teams use it to skip that stage entirely and ship.
Common questions
- What is Steady Dancer?
- Steady Dancer is a motion transfer model from Lightricks. It turns a still image into video: at 720p. On Enhance AI it runs on the same account as all the other top models, with no separate subscription.
- Can Steady Dancer turn a photo into a video?
- Yes. Upload a still image, describe the movement you want, and Steady Dancer animates it. The image is required: this model does not generate from a prompt alone.
- What resolution does Steady Dancer output?
- Steady Dancer renders at 480p or 720p. You pick the resolution before you render, and a lower one costs less.
- Is Steady Dancer free to try?
- No. Video on Enhance AI is paid per clip from your wallet, and a new account starts with an empty wallet, so there are no free Steady Dancer clips. The free tokens you get on signup, with no card needed, pay for image and audio tools, not video. Wallet top ups start at $5.
- What does it cost to run Steady Dancer?
- Steady Dancer renders are billed from your wallet by resolution and the length of the file you upload. You see the price for your settings before you render.
- Do I need a separate subscription for Steady Dancer?
- No. Steady Dancer runs on the same Enhance AI account as every other model, so you are not paying one provider for video and another for images.
