A ballfield gate in a New York park, a path, a phone backing away in front of you, and fifteen seconds of pure swagger. That's the Fergie Baby walk. You don't need the park, the friend with the phone or a single take: here's how to make your own version from one photo.
A demo made with Fergie Baby AI from one photo. The original walk is on Fergie Baby's TikTok.
What you get
One photo of you, a friend or your pet goes in; a video of that one subject doing the Fergie Baby walk in the New York park comes out. It's a vertical 9:16 MP4, 10 or 15 seconds long, in 480p, 720p or 1080p, with no watermark. There's no prompt to write: the walk, the park and the handheld camera come from the template, and the face, hair and clothes come from your photo. New to the trend? Start with what the Fergie Baby trend is.
How to make the Fergie Baby AI video
1. Upload one photo
Open the studio and upload one photo of one person or one pet. A clear, front-facing face matters most, and a knees-up or full-body photo helps, because the walk shows you head to toe. JPG, PNG or WebP, under 20 MB. Our photo tips go through what works and what doesn't.
2. Pick the model, length and quality
- Model: Budget, Balanced or Premium. Every model can render the whole 15-second walk.
- Length: 10 seconds ends mid-swagger on the path; 15 seconds is the whole walk, up to the hands on the head.
- Quality: 480p or 720p on every model, and 1080p on Premium.
The studio starts on Balanced, 15 seconds, 480p. The price updates as you choose, so you always see it before you generate.
3. Generate
Before you generate, you confirm that you have the right to use the photo and that the person in it agreed to appear. Your photo then goes through the video provider's review, which usually takes a few seconds. Once it passes, the video renders by itself in a few minutes. If you bought a single video without an account, we email you when it's ready.
4. Download, with or without the original song
The finished video comes with the trend's sound, "Uptown Shooters N' Bronx Bombers" by Fergie Baby. Next to the download there's an Include the original song option, checked by default. Leave it on for the version with the song, or untick it to get the silent video file. The song belongs to its rights holders and is included for personal sharing.
5. Share it
Post it to TikTok, Reels or Shorts. On TikTok you can also download it without the song and add the sound from TikTok's library instead. Add #fergiebabytrend, and label the video as AI-generated, as the platforms ask.
What does it cost?
Every price is shown before you generate. With credits, at 480p:
- Budget: 4 credits for 10 seconds, 6 credits for 15 seconds.
- Balanced: 8 credits for 10 seconds, 12 credits for 15 seconds.
- Premium: 20 credits for the whole 15-second walk.
The trial pack is 20 credits for $9.90 — enough for one Premium 15-second video at 480p, or a few shorter ones. Higher qualities cost more and are priced in the studio.
You can also buy one video at checkout without an account:
- $6.99: Balanced, 15 seconds, 480p.
- $8.99: Balanced, 15 seconds, 720p.
- $9.99: Premium, the whole 15-second walk at 480p.
All packs and prices are on the pricing page.
What if my photo is rejected?
You don't pay for a video that isn't made, and you don't have to ask for anything:
- Paid with credits: the credits go back to your balance automatically.
- Bought as a single video: the full payment is refunded automatically to the card or wallet you paid with.
The same goes for a render that fails for any other reason. Then try again with a different everyday photo. Celebrity photos, photos of strangers and photos of children don't pass. The full rules are in our refund policy.
Can I use a photo of my pet?
Yes. Cats, dogs and other pets do the same walk on their hind legs — through the gate, down the path and up to the lens. They stay real animals: paws stay paws, no human hands, and fur colour, markings and breed come from your photo. Take the photo at your pet's eye level with as much of the body in frame as you can, and keep it to one pet.
