December Notes: A Season With the Christmas Dance Generator

Field diary from one household's full December running the Christmas dance generator — what worked, what failed, and what the group chat taught us about five-second formats.

What worked

• The 8 a.m. opener: one clip posted before the chat wakes up sets the day's tone.
• The couple stage: the two-photo format converts skeptics faster than any explanation.
• Free previews: testing ten candidates cost nothing, and the final choice was unanimous.

What failed

• Long clips (we tried twelve seconds once; nobody finished it).
• Posting more than once a day (fatigue is real, even at five seconds).
• Group photos with hats (the pet stage taught us: no straps across faces, human or animal).

The economics

Free previews all month; paid exports only for the clips that earned replays. The comparison page documents the tiers; the tutorial is the whole training manual. Total spend: less than the stamps.
