Tik Tok Dance Workflow (Mimic Motion + Animate Diff) — v3.1 16GB VRAM

Use Tik Tok Dance Workflow (Mimic Motion + Animate Diff) to animate a character from a driving dance video and composite it over a 16-frame looping background; the listed inputs also include a prompt or setting.

Mimic Motion generates the character’s movement, AnimateDiff creates the looping background, and Grounding Dino composites the two.

For a driving video, the description recommends a static camera with the dancer doing the moving.
