A ginger cat on the lamp post until a black Labrador cuts in, and a woman in a raincoat dancing with her cat.
The samples start from AI-made pets and an original portrait of an adult, not customers or celebrities. Cat on the post, dog cuts in was cut from a 10-second vertical clip made with Seedance 2.0 Fast on November 3, 2026, with both next to the lamp post as the first frame. You and your cat at the lamp post comes from another Seedance 2.0 Fast clip from the same day.
About 9 seconds of each clip were kept for this page, gently reframed, colour graded and speed-adjusted, with the ghibliia.com mark at the top left. Nothing was mirrored. The music is original. Park Lamp and Flower Street are image only: the cat's and the dog's photos moved into two places with image-to-image AI, the same thing you can do on Image. No credits were spent on these samples.

Cat on the post, dog cuts in
A long-haired ginger cat stands up, grabs a green lamp post in a park at dusk and swings round it, tail flying; a black Labrador, also on its hind legs, steps in, they dance paw to paw and finish in a hug, looking at the camera.
A woman with pink hair and a yellow raincoat dances by a lamp post on a wet path; her grey cat stands up, dances with its paws raised in front of her, and she scoops it up for a hug.
The same ginger cat and black Labrador standing by a green iron lamp post in a park at dusk, the cat holding the post, autumn leaves on the ground.

A pet template on AI video sites from October 30, 2026; the name puns on strike a pose.
October 30
It launched as a pet template on two AI video template sites, built on a short AI clip of an orange tabby and a calico on a red-brick path between hedges on a grey day. One of the sites counted 1,488 uses by November 1; #strikeapole held only 2 older, unrelated videos.
The name is a pun on "strike a pose": here the pole is the lamp post.
Dancing cats
It rides a bigger wave: one AI dancing cat from @vizzion.ai passed 11.5 million TikTok views after August 29, 2026, and on November 1 #aicatdance held 3,570 videos and 110.9 million views.
