# Pet Christmas video: a Santa hat and a head tilt

> Turn one photo of your dog or cat into a 10-second Christmas clip: a red Santa hat, a curious head tilt by the tree and a final pose. No watermark.

The pet Christmas photo you never manage to take, as a video. Your dog or cat sits by the tree in a little Santa hat, hears something, tilts its head, then holds still for the perfect pose. It stays a real animal on four paws.

3. **Share the head tilt** Get a 10-second vertical clip with a soft holiday tune, or a silent one.

## What happens in the video

- **0–3 s The look:** Your pet sits by the tree in the hat and looks straight at you.
- **3–8 s The head tilt:** A slow tilt to one side, the hat slipping, a sniff, then a tilt the other way.
- **8–10 s The pose:** It holds the tilt and stares into the lens like it knows it’s on camera.

## Tips

- **Eye level, ears in frame** Shoot at your pet’s eye level with both ears showing; the hat sits between them.
- **Use it as your card** Add "Merry Christmas from" and your pet’s name, and send it instead of a card.

## FAQ

### Does it work for cats too?

Yes, and for any dog breed. The video keeps your pet’s breed, fur colours and markings from the photo.

### Will my pet dance or stand up?

No. The joke is a real pet being a real pet: it sits, tilts its head and poses, on all fours, the way it would at home.

### Can I put two pets in one video?

Not in this one; it takes one pet. Make a video for each and post them side by side.
