Disclosure: we make MakeTrend AI, one of the tools below. Everything about the others comes from their own public pages, checked on November 14, 2026. Prices and features change, so check before you buy.
"Wassup in a minute" is the trio dance on a misty Swiss hillside: hands on heads, a pouting close-up, a walk at the camera, a freestyle. Several tools now make it from photos, and one site with the trend's name in its domain makes something else entirely.
The short answer
- The trio dance from 1–3 photos, with the mix, on credits or a single checkout: MakeTrend AI
- The trio dance with pets in the cast: Starrd
- A subscription tool you already use: Media.io
- Not the trio dance: wassupinaminute.co makes a single anime character swaying on a white background
Side-by-side comparison

CapCut templates for the trend also circulate on TikTok. They're free, but they edit footage you film rather than generating people from photos, and we didn't test them.
Who gets the close-up?
The close-up of the middle dancer is the moment the trend is built around. On MakeTrend AI and Starrd, photo 1 is the middle dancer and gets the close-up; the others stay in frame but never up close. Media.io's page asks for one or three portraits and doesn't say who gets it.
What if you only have one photo?
MakeTrend AI puts you in the middle and generates two ordinary people as your friends, who don't look like anyone in your photos. Starrd reuses photo 1 for the empty spots, so you'd dance with copies of yourself. Media.io takes one or three portraits.
What one video really costs
- MakeTrend AI: Balanced is 15 credits and Premium 30 at 480p. Credit packs work out to about $0.41–0.50 a credit, and the monthly plan to $0.25, so a Balanced video is about $3.75–7.50. Without an account, one video starts at $7.99 at checkout.
- Starrd: 150 credits, which its page puts at about $7.50.
- Media.io: credits and limits are shown inside the product, not on this page.
- wassupinaminute.co: 60 credits for a 15 s clip at 480p; packs start at 60 credits for $5.99. Its free preview is 4 s with no sound.
Which one should you use?
- You want the real trio dance with your friends and the mix: MakeTrend AI.
- You want your dog in the crew: Starrd.
- You want a free edit and you're happy filming: a CapCut template.
Whatever you use, pick clear, well-lit photos facing the camera, use only photos of people who agreed to it, and label the video as AI when you post. Our step-by-step guide walks through the photos and the four shots.
FAQ
Is wassupinaminute.co the same trend? No. It makes an anime-style character swaying on a white background, and its page says it's an unofficial fan tool. The trio dance on the Swiss hillside is a different clip.
Which tool includes the trend's sound? MakeTrend AI's video comes with the mix and you can turn it off. Starrd's and Media.io's pages don't say whether theirs does; wassupinaminute.co generates its own beat and says to add the trending remix in TikTok.
