This study is committed to promoting its continuous development while retaining the cultural genes of hand-waving dance. Our contribution is tripled. First, in order to preserve the inherent cultural lineage of hand-waving dance, the performances of folk inheritors and their interpretation of the meaning of dance movements were carefully recorded through videos, thus forming a dataset of inheritors  performances, which contains dance sequences and corresponding semantic annotations. Secondly, we introduced innovative choreography into the hand-waving dance with the assistance of artificial intelligence (AI), and then transformed the novel dance sequence into an experimental performance. Third, with the power of AI, we produced creative short films based on videos of experimental performances. The author emphasizes that the cooperation of folk inheritors, professional choreographers, designers, artificial intelligence engineers and other stakeholders will play an increasingly important role in the preservation, inheritance and dissemination of intangible cultural heritage dance.  a978-3-031-61949-6 978-3-031-61950-2
