Footloose Dance
Upload one photo and MoveMyPhoto makes a 9-second video of that person doing the Footloose dance to “Footloose” by Kenny Loggins. Your face, outfit and background stay yours.
This dance moves the legs: a full-body photo looks best, and we draw the legs in if they’re missing.
The Footloose dance is the line dance to Kenny Loggins’ title song from the 1984 film Footloose. The best-known routine, by Levi J. Hubbard and Starla Rodgers, is a 32-count dance of vines, heel splits, heel taps and a heel-slapping quarter turn.

Questions

What movie is Footloose from?
Footloose (1984), starring Kevin Bacon as a teenager who fights a small town’s ban on dancing. Kenny Loggins’ title song went to No. 1 in the US.
Is the Footloose line dance hard?
It is rated beginner to intermediate: 32 counts and four walls. The heel splits and the heel-slap turn take the most practice.
Is MoveMyPhoto free?
Yes. You can make 1 video a day without signing up, and 3 a day after you sign in. Free videos have a MoveMyPhoto watermark. Failed or blocked videos don’t count.
What photo works best?
A clear, well-lit photo of one adult with the whole body in frame looks most like you. Selfies, half-body photos, stickers, drawings and even a scene with no one in it work too: we draw the missing body or a person into the scene first, which adds about a minute.
How long does a video take?
Usually about 10 minutes; it can take longer when many people are making videos. You don’t have to wait on the page: your video is saved in My videos.
