Steps to create your Abra Kadabra clip on Smew AI

The entire process happens in your browser. No editing software, no text prompt, no watermark.

  1. Upload two photos

    Click "Create your own" and upload yourself first (you'll dance solo and snap), then the second person (who joins you). Upload in this sequence since it determines each person's role. Capture new shots with your camera or choose existing ones from your device.

  2. Click Generate

    The cost appears on the button. Seedance 2.5 inserts your photos into the Abra Kadabra choreography and recreates it frame by frame for 12 seconds, including the original track. No text prompt needed.

  3. Save or post

    Your clip arrives in several minutes as a 9:16 MP4. Save it to your device, post it directly from your phone, or access it later in your Library.

Best photo practices

Choose your version first: Friend and Pet require two uploads, Clone needs just one.

  • Photo 1 is always you, performing solo first and snapping. Photo 2 is whoever joins: a friend (Friend) or an animal (Pet).
  • Choose a clear shot with the face visible to the camera, well-lit. Full-body shots work best since the dance shows both performers completely.
  • Friend and Pet use the clothing from your uploads. Clone puts you in the dance's outfits: black top with white sweatpants, and your double in reversed colors.
  • For Pet, capture the entire animal with a visible face: one animal only, no other creatures or people.
  • Avoid masks, sunglasses and beauty filters, and include only one person per upload.
  • This template works for adults and animals. Use your own photo and one from a consenting adult. Never use celebrities, strangers or minors.

Origins of the Abra Kadabra trend

The Abra Kadabra song on TikTok is Brazilian funk with a chanted "abra kadabra" verse. The sound page shows an initial upload on 19 May 2026, reaching 469,000 videos by 18 October 2026; a duplicate upload by DUDU MUSIC reached 1.3 million. It's distinct from Lady Gaga's 2025 track "Abracadabra", though people searching for the Brazilian version often mean this funk beat.

The Abra Kadabra dance gained traction in late August 2026. A group video on 21 August claimed original choreography ("Dc: nosotras"), while pair videos from 26 to 31 August reached 3 to 7 million views. The concept stays consistent: solo performance, second person enters on beat as if appearing magically, both finish synchronized.

The definitive version came on 1 September 2026 from Kelly (@kellyisdancing), a 22-year-old dancer based in Germany: solo performance in black top and white sweatpants, then her "evil twin" in reversed colors enters at the 3-second point. It reached 3.8 million views and 508,800 likes by 17 October. During October the trend expanded to animals, editing tricks and AI: on 17 October 2026 an AI video platform launched a two-photo option where you snap and a companion or animal materializes.

Recreate the reference video [Video 1] shot for shot: the same plain, bright living room: white walls, a light grey ceiling with a small spotlight, a warm brown wooden floor, a black leather sofa at the left edge, a black armchair with a patterned cushion and an open white doorway at the back right, the same fixed phone camera at chest height that shows the dancers from head to toe, the same timing and moves of the two-person funk dance. The ONLY change: the two dancers are now the people in [Image 1] and [Image 2]. Dancer 1 = the person in [Image 1], in EVERY frame: the one who dances alone first on the left and snaps. Copy the exact face from [Image 1]: face shape, eye color and eye shape, eyebrows, nose, mouth, skin tone, age, hair color, hair length and hairstyle, and any beard, moustache, glasses or freckles exactly as in the photo. They wear the clothes from [Image 1]. NO black strapless top and NO loose white sweatpants unless [Image 1] shows them; the long dark curly hair of the woman in [Video 1] never comes back unless [Image 1] shows it. Dancer 2 = the person in [Image 2], in EVERY frame from the moment they step in: the one who appears on the right. Copy the exact face from [Image 2]: face shape, eye color and eye shape, eyebrows, nose, mouth, skin tone, age, hair color, hair length and hairstyle, and any beard, moustache, glasses or freckles exactly as in the photo. They wear the clothes from [Image 2]. NO white lace camisole and NO loose black sweatpants unless [Image 2] shows them; NO long dark curly hair unless [Image 2] shows it. Two different real people, so their friends recognize them at once. Never morph, never blend the two faces, never drift back to the woman in [Video 1]. Both change: no one from [Video 1] stays, also in the step-in and when a hand covers the mouth. The beats, matching [Video 1] second by second: 0-2.7 s: dancer 1 dances alone on the left, relaxed funk steps, hips swaying, small hand rolls at the waist, eyes on the lens; the right half of the frame is empty. 2.7 s: on the beat, dancer 1 snaps the fingers of one hand at chest height, a quick snap inside the same move. 3.0-3.6 s: dancer 2 steps in fast from the right edge of the frame and lands next to dancer 1, as if by magic. 3.6-8 s: both dance the same routine in sync: arms crossed at the chest, wrist flicks, small shoulder bounces. 8-9.6 s: both cover the mouth with one hand and push the other hand forward. 9.6-11.8 s: both put the hands on the thighs and bounce the knees with a hip sway, eyes on the lens, a small smile. One head per dancer, on their own shoulders. A face never appears on hands, legs or clothes. Exactly two dancers, no one else in the room. No text, no logos on the clothes, no watermark.

Choosing between Friend, Pet or Clone versions

Friend is the standard Abra Kadabra pair dance: solo start with your companion materializing. Both retain individual faces, clothing and gender, so adult friends, couples or siblings all work. It's the AI method for doing the Abra Kadabra trend with someone who's elsewhere.

Pet replaces the second performer with your dog or cat, standing upright and dancing alongside you. It covers both Abra Kadabra trend dog and Abra Kadabra trend cat versions: any animal with a visible face works.

Clone is the Abra Kadabra twin trend using one photo, like Kelly's source dance: your duplicate in reversed colors enters and mirrors your movements. It's also the fastest Abra Kadabra clone trend clip, requiring no second participant.

FAQ

Abra Kadabra trend questions

What is the Abra Kadabra trend?
The Abra Kadabra trend is a TikTok pair dance set to a Brazilian funk verse chanting "abra kadabra". One performer starts solo, then on cue a second joins them, and they finish the choreography synchronized. It gained popularity in late August 2026; the AI variation includes a finger snap and lets the joining person be your companion, animal or duplicate.
What is the Abra Kadabra song on TikTok?
The Abra Kadabra song is Brazilian funk "som original" with the chanted verse "abra kadabra". It's the Abra Kadabra trend track, distinct from Lady Gaga's "Abracadabra". A Smew AI clip includes the same 12 seconds of the dance's audio, which you can mute on the results screen. The track belongs to its copyright holders.
What does the Abra Kadabra Brazilian song say?
Most of the audio is a funk beat, and the verse simply chants "abra kadabra", the magic phrase, right when the second performer materializes. People search for an Abra Kadabra Brazilian song translation or the Abra Kadabra funk letra (lyrics), but the section the trend uses contains no actual lines to translate: the magic phrase is the concept.
Is this the same as the Lady Gaga Abracadabra trend?
No. The Abracadabra TikTok trend and Abracadabra dance trend of 2025 use Lady Gaga's pop track and its music video choreography. The Abra Kadabra trend uses a Brazilian funk verse (an abracadabra funk sound) and a brief pair routine where a second performer materializes. You might also encounter an abracadabra funk remix: verify the beat is funk, not the pop track.
How do I make the Abra Kadabra AI video?
Click "Create your own", select Friend, Pet or Clone, upload your photos (photo 1 is you) and click Generate; the cost displays first. You receive a 12-second Abra Kadabra AI clip with audio, the same Abra Kadabra AI trend platforms now replicate, also searched as "abra cadabra AI". It processes in 5 to 15 minutes.
Do I need an Abra Kadabra tutorial to learn the dance?
No. An Abra Kadabra tutorial or Abra Kadabra dance tutorial teaches the movements and entrance timing. Here the AI extracts the Abra Kadabra dance TikTok choreography from the source dance, so you skip rehearsal and multiple attempts.
Is there an Abra Kadabra CapCut template?
Yes, people search "abra kadabra CapCut" for editing templates, though many are a different transformation edit with old photos. This page creates the actual dance: the Abra Kadabra AI video generates from your photos, so you need no CapCut editing and no second performer present.
Can I do the Abra Kadabra snap trend with my dog or cat?
Yes. Select Pet: you perform solo, snap, and your dog or cat materializes upright and dances alongside you. The Abra Kadabra snap trend accommodates any animal with a distinct face. Use one full-body photo of the animal.
What is the Abra Kadabra twin trend?
It's the duplicate variation of the dance: the joining person is the same performer in reversed colors, like Kelly's source dance. Select Clone and one photo of yourself creates an AI duplicate video, a quick Abra Kadabra meme for your profile.
What do people call the trend in Portuguese?
In Brazil it's the trend do Abra Kadabra, and the Abra Kadabra dança (the dance) is the same pair choreography. You might also see "abrakadabra trend", "abrakadabra dance" or "abra cadabra trend".
Can I make an AI duo dance with a friend who is not with me?
Yes. Friend is an AI dance video with a companion using two photos: you each send a photo, and the AI duo dance inserts you both into the choreography. Each person maintains individual face, clothing and gender. Use photos of consenting adults.
Which AI model makes the video?
Seedance 2.5. It replicates the source dance frame by frame and substitutes the performers with the people or animal in your photos, at 720p, vertical 9:16. If unavailable, a backup model creates the clip from the same dance. You write no prompt: no creator published one since the source is an actual dance, so we wrote one detailing every beat and preserving your faces.
How long is the video and what format is it?
12 seconds, vertical 9:16, 720p, an MP4 with audio and no watermark.
