Which photo works best?

Solo: one clear photo, face to the camera, waist up or full body. Duo and Trio: one photo per friend, one person in each photo.

• Photo 1 runs first and stands in the middle at the end.
• Faces should be sharp and big: each friend passes close to the camera.
• Adults only (18+). No sunglasses, no hats that hide the face, no group photos in one slot.

Where did this trend start?

The dance began on 30 August 2020 when @lesgetitrell posted a slow-motion routine to a slowed "Pray For Me" as a tribute to Chadwick Boseman (14.5 million plays). In October 2026 friend groups turned it into a slow mo run past the camera. Credit the dance with "DC: @lesgetitrell".

The Pray For Me Slow Mo prompts

You do not need these: the one-tap flow runs them. Solo copies the room reel; Duo and Trio are filmed from your photos.

Recreate [Video 1] shot for shot: dramatic slow motion in a bright empty living room with white walls, a dark wood floor, an arched doorway, a tall window and a tall black-framed mirror, phone on the floor looking slightly up. The ONLY change: the dancer is the person in [Image 1]. Copy the exact face. Wear the clothes from [Image 1]. 0-6.5 s: turn, sway, look up, press palms together in prayer. 6.5-11 s: drop out of frame; run past outside the window and appear small in the mirror. 11-13.5 s: come back close to the camera and dance on. Exactly one dancer. No text, logos or watermark.

A viral "pray for me" slow mo run of two friends from [Image 1] and [Image 2]: handheld at chest height, vertical 9:16, slow motion at about a quarter speed. Place: a long covered outdoor walkway at night. Friend 1 is [Image 1], Friend 2 is [Image 2], never blend faces. Each run: start far away, run toward the camera with wide arm swings, pass close to the lens. 0-3.5 s Friend 1 left, 3.5-7 s Friend 2 right, 7-10 s both step back in, palms together, arms crossed, then burst out laughing. Audio: slow emotional beat, not the song. Exactly two grown adults. Nobody falls.

Same slow mo run as Duo with three friends from [Image 1], [Image 2], [Image 3]. 0-2.5 s Friend 1, 2.5-5 s Friend 2, 5-7.5 s Friend 3, 7.5-10 s all three side by side, Friend 1 in the middle, palms together then arms crossed, then laugh. Slow emotional beat, not the song. Exactly three grown adults.
