# A glance. A line.
A moment together.

> The familiar feeling comes from the cast, the performance and the scene order. Begin with the dock; end with two people by the water.

## Cast your seaside duet

Local storyboard review only. No video is generated and no photos are transmitted.

| Shot | Seconds | Cast | Direction |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1 | 3 | The one waiting | A quiet seated profile. Calm water, worn wood, no dancing. |
| 2 | 3 | The one waiting | Closer framing. A small turn of the head, an unhurried look. |
| 3 | 3 | The singer | A beach close-up, direct eye contact and a gentle singing gesture. |
| 4 | 2 | The singer | Soft expression and sea breeze. Keep the performance restrained. |
| 5 | 3 | The singer | Waist-up seaside framing. Muted blue water and warm natural skin. |
| 6 | 3 | The one waiting + The singer | Both seated. The singer faces the camera; the partner turns toward them. |
| 7 | 3 | The one waiting + The singer | A brief smile between the two. Natural closeness, no big choreography. |
| 8 | 3 | The singer | Return to the singer. One subtle hand movement, steady framing. |
| 9 | 2 | The one waiting + The singer | A wider composition with both people and the open shoreline. |
| 10 | 3 | The one waiting + The singer | A quiet dusk ending, both looking out toward the water. |

## Two people. One little story.

Begin with the cast. The setting and scene order are already planned.

1. **Choose your two photos** One person in each image, face clear and outfit visible. Use photos with permission from both people.
2. **Give each person a role** One waits on the dock; one leads the singing scenes. Swap roles to change who does what.
3. **Review the seaside sequence** Move through the ten draft shots, from a quiet dock to a shared beach moment. Save the plan if you want to keep it.
4. **Make the performance** Video rendering is the next release step. Once it is tested, review faces, performance and timing before adding music and sharing.

## What makes the sequence recognizable?

Start with the waiting person seated on the wooden dock. Cut to the singer’s close-up by the water. Let the two people share the beach, then leave a little space for a quiet dusk ending.

Keep gestures small and the camera calm. The singer’s gaze, expression and mouth movement matter more than a big dance move. Consistent faces and clothing need to hold across the cuts.

Our ten-shot, 28-second sequence is an original product draft, not a verified copy of every MV cut. Rendering, identity continuity and song timing must be tested before we offer downloadable videos.

## Before you take the scene.

### What is the Raindance AI trend?

It is a personalized seaside performance format inspired by Dave and Tems’ Raindance music video. A person waits on a wooden dock, another sings toward the lens, and the pair share a beach scene. The appeal is putting your own cast into that familiar moment. Read the [trend guide](https://raindance.dance/raindance-trend).

### Can I use two separate photos?

Yes, this preview lets you choose two local portraits and assign the waiting and singing roles. You can swap those roles before reviewing the storyboard. It does not send the photos to a provider or generate a video yet.

### What happens when I review my video plan?

You see your chosen portraits beside each scene’s directions and can save a JSON storyboard. The photos stay in this browser tab and are cleared when you leave. This review does not animate the photos, replace faces or measure likeness.

### Is the Raindance song included?

No artist recording or vocals are included. The planned video is silent. Add an available Raindance sound inside your publishing app when your account and intended use permit it.

### How long is the video?

Our current storyboard draft totals 28 seconds across ten shots in a planned 4:3 frame. These are design targets, not a completed video or a promise of exact synchronization with the song.

### Can I generate or buy a video now?

No. Cast selection and storyboard review work locally. Dedicated video rendering and checkout are unavailable, so nothing is charged. We will show real examples and a confirmed price after the rendering workflow is tested.
