Your photo

Group photos won't work. Your photo sets the scene: the video keeps its background, framing and shape.

What is the Bad Times trend?

A 30-second lip-sync of “Bad Times” by Imael Angel, played as a heated argument with the camera in a kitchen. People now recreate it with AI, mostly starring their cats and dogs.

  1. 0 to 5 s

    The breakdown

    In her kitchen, the performer holds her head in her hands, frames her face for the first line, then strikes a pose with a hand on her hip.

  2. 5 to 11 s

    Talk to the hand

    Palms out to stop the camera, she backs away, shrugs and waves the whole thing off, mouthing every word.

  3. 11 to 20 s

    In your face

    She lunges right into the lens, points, wags her finger and shouts the lyrics as if the camera started the argument.

  4. 20 to 30 s

    The stare-down

    She jumps back, throws her hands up, then walks up close again and ends on a dead-serious stare.

What photo to upload

Bad Times AI copies only the moves and the song. Everything else comes from your photo: who performs, the room behind them, the light and the framing. Pick it like you would set up the shot.

Works best

  • Vertical (portrait) photo, like a phone video. A wide photo gives a wide video.
  • Standing, facing the camera, head to knees or full body in frame.
  • Arms down and free, hands visible.
  • Some space above the head and around the body: the moves step back and lunge toward the camera.
  • A background you like: your room, kitchen, backyard or office becomes the set.
  • Sharp and well lit, face clearly visible.

Avoid

  • Close-up selfies or head-only crops: the AI has to invent the body.
  • Sitting, lying down, or crossed arms and hands in pockets.
  • Other people in the photo: the AI may pick the wrong one or blend them.
  • Bags, pets in arms or furniture in front of the body.
  • Heavy filters, dark or blurry photos.

Pets: For a pet, use a photo of the whole animal, ideally sitting up or standing and facing the camera. It acts out the lip-sync on its hind legs.

How to make a Bad Times AI video

No prompt to write and nothing to edit. The moves and the song are built in; your photo sets the star and the scene.

  1. 1

    Pick the right photo

    One vertical photo of you, a friend who agreed, or your cat or dog, standing with head to knees in frame and arms free. The photo sets the scene: its room or background becomes the set of your video.

  2. 2

    Press Generate

    Every video is HD 720p, 30 seconds long, and costs 150 credits. The moves and the song are already loaded; the AI makes your photo perform them.

  3. 3

    Download and post

    Rendering takes a few minutes and you can close the tab meanwhile. The video comes with the original sound, ready for TikTok, Reels or Shorts.

Photos that work best

  • A vertical photo: the video keeps its shape and framing.
  • Standing, facing the camera, head to knees or full body in frame.
  • Arms free and visible, nothing in front of the body.
