Sasha La Catrina template
Every Sasha La Catrina sample is a different way to come back as Catrina. Pick the reveal you want — your photo does the rest.
What this page is
Choosing a Catrina reveal to copy
The wave has a reveal for almost everyone, and ViralReel ships the seven that traveled widest. The samples on ViralReel are Flower Toss (the bedroom reveal that started it), Second Face (the same reveal recast), Song Reveal, Ofrenda Reveal, Catrín (the male version), Catrina Cat and Grandmother — each its own clip with its own length of 5, 10 or 15 seconds.
Open https://www.viralreel.app/sasha-la-catrina-ai-template and pick the sample whose reveal you want — the picker sits beside the preview, and the clip you choose is the exact reference the model renders from. Almost every reveal takes one photo — a clear front-facing portrait, hands away from the face, waist-up if you want the gown. The pet versions take one photo of the pet with its whole head and markings visible. Pick the sample first: its reveal, camera and sound are what your clip becomes.
The clip keeps the sample's original sound — "Adiós señora bonita" from The Book of Life is the one the trend rides. If the sound is missing from your download, add it inside TikTok from the in-app library, and turn on the AI label. ViralReel does not license the song. Use photos of yourself, your family, or your pet. Do not pass the output off as real face paint, and keep the AI-generated label on when you post — the whole point of the look is that it was drawn, not painted.
- Pick a reveal, upload one photo. Open the Sasha La Catrina template, pick the reveal you want from the sample list — the flower toss, the ofrenda hands-over-face, the Catrín, or the pet versions — and upload one clear front-facing photo. Face toward the camera, hands away from the face, waist-up if you want the gown. For a pet, a photo where the whole head and its markings show. JPG, PNG, and WebP work.
- Generate the transformation. The clip's reveal, camera, gown and sound are all pre-built — your photo only supplies the face. Check the credit cost shown before you start and generate. The AI keeps your face under the sugar-skull paint and rebuilds the gown, the candles and the petals around it at the clip's own length.
- Download the MP4. Download the vertical MP4 when the render finishes — the reveal lands on the marigold light, with the sample's original sound already kept. Paid credit packs and monthly plans export without a ViralReel watermark.
- Post with the trend sound and the AI label. Post on TikTok under #fairytalecatrina, #lacatrina and #sashalacatrina — or on Reels and Shorts. If the sound is missing from your download, add "Adiós señora bonita" (from The Book of Life) from the in-app library, and turn on the AI-generated label where the platform asks. The trend peaks on Día de Muertos, November 1-2.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is this the CapCut template?
No. CapCut templates cut a face onto a fixed clip. ViralReel re-renders the whole person from your photo — face, hair and build stay yours under the paint — and keeps the sample's reveal and sound.
Which sample should I pick for a pet?
Catrina Cat is the cat version — one photo of the cat, whole head and markings visible. Dogs work in the same sample; keep the pet alone in the photo or you get a sugar skull with whiskers on a human body.
