The moment

Your video has the “Where she at?” moment

“Where she at?” is the beat people come to this trend for: the host lifts a flat hand over his eyes like a visor and turns slowly, scanning the chandelier-lit room as if looking for someone, with the silver cup still in the other hand.

Your video keeps that beat where it is in the original party scene. Whoever is in your photo raises the cup to the camera, does the hand-over-the-eyes look and scans the crowd on the same timing, while the guests, the chandeliers and the handheld camera stay as they are. You don't have to act anything out or write a prompt — one photo is enough.

  • You or a friend: the classic look, hand over the eyes, scanning the room
  • Dogs and cats: the same look with a paw, keeping your pet's own face and fur
  • Your own characters: they keep their design and do the gesture in their own style

Background

The party behind the Burning Bridges trend

“Burning Bridges” came out on May 15, 2026, on Drake's album Iceman, and its video was shot at Sotto Sotto, a Yorkville restaurant that is one of his favourite spots in Toronto. The scene everyone remembers is the party: a packed room under chandeliers, Drake raising a silver cup to the lens, then holding a hand over his eyes and looking around for someone.

In early October 2026 that look became a template. AI editors kept the room, the crowd and the handheld camera, and swapped Drake for Shrek, monkeys, Rottweilers, cartoon heroes and themselves.

FAQ

Burning Bridges AI FAQ

What is the Burning Bridges AI trend?

+

It's a TikTok and Reels trend from October 2026. People use AI to replace Drake in the party scene from his “Burning Bridges” music video, so a dog, Shrek, a friend or they themselves raise the cup and do the “where she at?” look in the chandelier-lit room.

How do I make a Drake Burning Bridges AI video?

+

Upload one photo on this page and hit Generate. We use the party clip as the reference video and swap your photo in as the host, so there's no prompt to write and no motion-transfer app to set up. The clip's audio is already on the result.

What AI is used for Burning Bridges videos?

+

Creators mostly use video-editing or motion-transfer models such as Kling or Seedance that keep a reference clip's motion and camera and replace one person. MakeMeme uses ByteDance's Seedance 2.5 in edit mode on the 25-second party scene the trend uses, in 16:9 at 480p, 720p or 1080p.

Can I use my dog or cat?

+

Yes, pets are some of the most shared versions. The replacement keeps your pet's own body, so it raises a paw instead of a hand. Use a clear photo where the face and upper body are visible.

Can I put Drake or another celebrity in it?

+

No. We only make videos with photos of yourself, of people who agreed to it, of your pets or of characters you made. Photos of public figures are rejected.

How much does it cost?

+

Each video costs 110 credits at 480p, 240 at 720p or 600 at 1080p, and failed videos are refunded automatically. Most videos are ready in a few minutes, and we email you when yours is done.

What resolution is the Burning Bridges AI video, and how many credits does it cost?

+

You choose before you generate: 110 credits at 480p, 240 at 720p or 600 at 1080p. Every resolution gives the same 25-second cinematic widescreen video; higher resolutions are sharper. Failed videos are refunded automatically.

Only upload photos of yourself or of people who have agreed to be in your video. Photos of public figures are rejected. MakeMeme isn't affiliated with Drake, OVO or any label.
