The gas station dance template and two recasts
The template clip the generator follows, then a Halloween cast and a wedding cast on the same forecourt, with the same cuts and the same music. Tap a clip for sound.
The 15-second template the generator follows
Shot 1, a man in a white tee dances on the empty forecourt; shot 2, a friend in black films a walking selfie under the red-striped canopy; shot 3, a man in a grey jacket steps out of a blue SUV and walks to the camera. 15 s, 9:16, with its music.

How to make the gas station dance with the song
The gas station dance takes four steps here, with no editing app, no prompt and no music to add afterwards. The tool sits at the top of this page.
1Add one photo per shot
Photo 1 dances on the forecourt, photo 2 films the walking selfie, photo 3 steps out of the car. One person per photo, face to the camera; full body helps for photos 1 and 3. Only one or two of you? Put the same photo in more than one slot.
2Pick the frame
9:16 follows the template for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. 16:9 asks the model to widen the forecourt and the cars for a YouTube or landscape post.
3Pick a model and a resolution
Seedance 2.0 Fast at 720p is the default (130 credits). Seedance 2.0 Mini at 480p is the cheapest test (28 credits); Seedance 2.0 and Seedance 2.5 go up to 1080p. The price shows on the button before anything is charged.
4Generate and download
It takes a few minutes and keeps running if you close the page. The finished MP4 already has the template’s song under it, ready to post.
What song is in the viral gas station dance video?
The viral gas station dance video is usually reposted with “On and On” by the Romanian group Akcent, and that is the credit most reposts and how-to posts give. The MP4 made here carries the template clip’s own soundtrack, the track you hear on the first example above, laid under the picture after the video is made, so you do not add music yourself.
Remixes and sped-up versions of the song are around too. Their timing differs, so the template’s cuts can stop landing where the beat expects them; keeping the template’s own track avoids that.
RapTwins has no connection to Akcent or the song’s owners, and making a video gives you no right to the music.
The gas station dance video, cut by cut
The gas station dance video is one 15-second handheld clip with hard cuts at 5.2 and 7.5 seconds, one more inside the car shot at about 9.5 seconds and a fast pull-back at about 13.2. The video model is asked to keep every cut at the same moment as the template, which is what keeps the song and the picture together once the track goes back on.
| Time | Who | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| 0–5.2 s | Shot 1 · photo 1 | Forecourt dance: hand on the hip, knee bounces, arm swings, then both hands up and a turn |
| 5.2 s | Cut | Whip pan across the low sun into the selfie |
| 5.2–7.5 s | Shot 2 · photo 2 | Walking selfie at arm’s length under the red-striped canopy, pointing, then flinging the arm out |
| 7.5–9.5 s | Shot 3 · photo 3 | Wide view from behind a blue and a grey SUV: the door swings open and someone steps out |
| 9.5–13.2 s | Shot 3, closer | Beside the open door: ducks out, straightens up, walks to the camera with a phone at the waist |
| 13.2–15 s | Snap back | The camera pulls back fast to the wide view and holds on the person between the cars |
Each run is a new take, so a cut can land a few frames early or late; the timeline is what the model is asked to follow, not a frame-exact promise.
Is “dance at the gas station” the same video?
“Dance at the gas station” searches mostly bring up a different video from this trend: a Sunoco station in Halfmoon, New York, that gave customers a discount for dancing at the pump in summer 2026, set to Whitney Houston, which CNN, Fox and ABC covered. There is also “Gas Station Love”, a gas station line dance with its own song and step tutorials, which is what most “gas station love dance” searches mean.
The video this page makes is the third one: the sunset clip of a forecourt dance, a walking selfie and someone stepping out of a car, also called the petrol pump dance in India. If you remember a man dancing in front of parked trucks, then a selfie under a red-striped canopy, then a blue SUV door opening, you are in the right place.

What the gas station dance generator can’t do
The gas station dance generator makes one fixed scene: three shots, one person each, on the template’s sunset forecourt with its song. It does not change the place, the moves or the music, fit a group into one shot, or promise the same face in every frame.
Put two people in one shot
Each shot has exactly one person. A group of four or more makes several videos; a couple uses one photo twice.
Change the forecourt, the night or the song
The sunset forecourt, the two parked cars and the soundtrack are fixed. To rap your own words over a beat, use the AI rap video generator instead.
Promise a frame-exact edit
The model is asked to keep every cut and move in time with the template; a new run is a new take, so timing can drift a little.
Guarantee the same face throughout
The prompt asks the model to keep each face from the first frame to the last; results vary with the model and the photo. Sharp, front-facing photos in good light give it the most to work with.
Make celebrities or strangers
Use your own photos or adults who said yes. The video model refuses some photos; those videos are refunded.
Where the gas station dance came from
The gas station dance traces back to a clip of Russian blogger Mikhail Litvin and his friends Ravshan and Adel, shot by the way at a gas station during a 2024 road trip: one dances by the pump, one turns the phone into a selfie, one climbs out of the car. Nothing was choreographed.
The original was filmed at night under the station lights. The AI versions that spread in autumn 2026, the gas station AI trend, moved it to golden hour, which is why most clips you see now are orange sunset light, and the three people became three slots for anyone’s photos.
Gas station dance FAQ
Can I use the same photo for all three shots?
Yes. The prompt tells the model that when two or three photos show the same person, that person simply performs those shots, so a solo version needs one photo uploaded three times.
Will TikTok or Instagram mute the song?
It can happen with any copyrighted track. If the sound is muted, turn the clip’s own audio down and add “On and On” from the app’s sound library, and keep the platform’s AI-generated label on.
Do I need to sign in or install an app?
You sign in to generate and download, so the video and its credits are tied to your account. There is nothing to install: it runs in a phone or desktop browser.
Can I use the video in an ad?
Not with the song as it is: making the video gives you no right to the music. For an ad, get a music licence or swap the sound, and get written permission from everyone in the photos.
