Santa Nice List AI

The Santa Nice List trend with your own photos: Santa unrolls his list in a candle-lit toy workshop, finds the name, nods, and a swirl of gold sparkles reveals your dog or cat, the two of you, or just you as a living portrait in a big gold frame. Upload one or two photos, pick a look and get a 10-second vertical clip. No template, no prompt to write.

Put your pet or your duo on the Nice List

Photo 1 is the star of the gold frame: your dog or cat, or an adult. Add photo 2 for the duo frame: a partner, a friend, or you beside your pet. Pick a look and generate: the workshop, the scroll, the sparkles and the reveal are already set. There is no free preview: every render uses credits.

What is the Santa Nice List trend?

The Santa Nice List trend is a Christmas CapCut template that took off on TikTok in November 2026. Santa sits in a carved armchair in his workshop, unrolls a scroll so long it rolls across the floor, checks the Nice List and nods. Gold sparkles swirl, and the person on the list appears in an ornate gold frame with a pine garland and red bows.

The template’s sound was first posted on 5 November 2026 and was on more than 9,000 videos within three days. A how-to post from 6 November passed 800,000 plays. People put themselves, their partner and, most of all, their dogs and cats in the frame.

This page makes that clip as a new AI video from your own photos: the frame holds a living portrait that smiles, waves, blinks or wags, not a still photo pasted in.

The clip, second by second

0–3 s: Santa unrolls the long scroll; “NICE LIST” at the top.

3–5 s: a gloved finger runs down the list, stops, and Santa nods at the camera.

5–7 s: gold sparkles rise from the scroll and swirl through the workshop.

7–10 s: the gold frame, and your pet, your duo or you inside it, alive.

Pet, duo or you?

Pet puts your dog or cat on a red velvet cushion in the frame. Duo puts two side by side: a couple, two friends, or you and your pet (two photos, or one photo of the two of you). You is one adult from the chest up.

Three Nice List looks

Pick a look in the generator, or tap one here to load it. The workshop, the scroll and the sparkles are the same in all three.

Pet on the Nice List

Your dog or cat sits on a red velvet cushion in the gold frame, tilts its head and blinks; a dog wags its tail. Add photo 2 for a second pet. The default.

Duo in the frame

Two side by side in one gold frame: a couple, best friends, or you and your pet. They lean in, smile and wave.

Just you

One adult from the chest up, smiling and waving from the frame, with your own face, hair and clothes.

How to make the Santa Nice List AI video

The tool sits under the heading above. Three steps, then the clip is in your Library.

1
Upload one or two photos
Photo 1 is your pet or you. Photo 2 is optional: the second face for the duo frame. One pet or one adult per photo works best.
2
Pick pet, duo or you
Each look frames a different portrait. The 10-second scene is fixed, so there is nothing to type. Optional: one short detail, such as “matching sweaters”.
3
Generate the 10-second clip
480p is the default and the cheaper one; 720p is sharper. You get a vertical MP4 with festive music. Add a name in the caption when you post, and say it was made with AI.

Photos that work best

The model only knows your pet or you from the pixels you upload. A sharp photo with the whole face keeps the portrait recognisable.

A dog or cat with the whole head, eyes and ears in view
An adult from the chest up, facing the camera
One pet or one person per photo for the duo frame
Daylight or a bright room, no heavy filters

Weaker or blocked

Photos of children or anyone under 18 (never allowed)
Group photos of three or more
Sunglasses, or a hand or toy over the face
Photos of celebrities or public figures

Photoreal, cinematic vertical 9:16 Christmas video in warm candlelight and gold. A cozy wooden toy workshop at night: shelves of wooden toys and nutcrackers, pine garlands, fairy lights, a lit Christmas tree. Santa Claus, an original kindly old man with a full white beard, rosy cheeks, small round glasses and a red velvet suit and hat with white fur trim, sits in a big carved wooden armchair. Beats, 10 seconds: 0-3s Santa unrolls a very long parchment scroll that tumbles down and rolls across the floorboards; at the top it reads "NICE LIST" in red serif letters above rows of small handwritten lines. 3-5s he runs a gloved finger down the list, stops, looks up at the camera over his glasses, smiles warmly and nods. 5-7s he opens one hand and gold sparkles rise from the scroll and swirl through the workshop in a bright spiral. 7-10s the sparkles clear on a large ornate gold picture frame with a pine garland and red bows beside the tree; the camera pushes in slowly on the living portrait inside the frame. Inside the frame, as a living portrait, sits the dog or cat from @image1 on a red velvet cushion. Keep it exactly as in the photo: species, breed, face, eyes, ears, muzzle, fur colours, fur length and markings, with the natural body of that animal, never a human face or hands. It looks into the camera, tilts its head, blinks and perks up its ears; a dog wags its tail. Use each photo only as an identity reference, not as an opening frame. The portrait is alive and softly lit, not a flat print. Exactly one Santa and no other figures in the workshop: no elves, no helpers, no crowd. The only words on screen are "NICE LIST" on the scroll: no captions, no subtitles, no logos, no watermark. Realistic hands, natural faces, no known characters, no famous people. Adults and pets only. Audio: a soft music box melody with sleigh bells and a warm "ho ho ho"; no singing, no lyrics, no known song.

Santa Nice List AI FAQ

What is the Santa Nice List AI trend?

A Christmas CapCut template that spread on TikTok from 5 November 2026: Santa checks his Nice List in his workshop, gold sparkles swirl, and the person or pet on the list appears in an ornate gold frame.

How do I make a Santa Nice List video with AI?

Upload one or two photos, pick Pet on the Nice List, Duo in the frame or Just you, and press Generate. You get a 10-second vertical MP4 of the whole scene. You do not write a prompt.

Can I put my dog or cat on the Nice List?

Yes, that is the default look. Upload a clear photo of your dog or cat with the whole head in view. It stays a real animal with its own fur and markings, sitting on a red velvet cushion in the frame.

Can two of us be in the gold frame?

Yes. Pick Duo in the frame and upload two photos (photo 1 on the left, photo 2 on the right), or one photo of the two of you. It works for a couple, two friends, or you and your pet.

Will it still look like us?

Each photo is an identity reference: face, hair, skin tone and clothes, or a pet’s breed, face and markings, are read from it. Sharp, front-facing photos match best. Every render is new, so watch yours before you post it.

How many credits does a Santa Nice List video cost?

A 10-second clip costs 480 credits with Seedance 2.0 Mini at 480p (the default) or 1,010 at 720p. The photos are free inputs. Failed renders are refunded automatically. The price is shown before you generate.

Can I make a Santa Nice List video for free?

Signing up is free (no card) and new accounts get 100 credits, valid for 5 days (one grant per email). They cover images and a short test video: the cheapest clip is 20 credits, and Grok Imagine Video 1.5 makes up to 8 seconds at 480p for 100 credits. Chatting with the agent is free. Longer or higher-resolution videos need a plan or a one-time credit pack. The exact cost shows before every render, and failed renders are refunded.

Is this the CapCut template?

No. The CapCut template places your photo into its own clip. This page generates a new video of the scene from your photos, with our own music.
