Midjourney Video: Turning Your Static Images into Dynamic Motion

The Midjourney video model is finally here, letting you add motion to your static images directly within the platform. This new feature can simplify your creative process and save you steps.

Getting Started with Midjourney Video

The process is simple. You start by creating an image in Midjourney just like you always do. Then, you choose which image you want to bring to life.

• Type your prompt (e.g., "a man reading a book").

• Midjourney will give you four images.

• Pick one image and click the "animate image" option.

Midjourney will then create four different video versions from your chosen image. This keeps your workflow smooth without needing to download images and upload them elsewhere for video editing.

Choosing Your Motion Style: Low vs. High

When you animate an image, you get to pick from different motion settings:

[LI]

Low Motion

[/LI]

[LI]This option adds subtle movement to your image. Think of it like a character softly turning a book page or a gentle zoom effect.[/LI]

[LI]Many results show simple, smooth changes, like a close-up or a slight shift in perspective.[/LI]

[LI]

High Motion

[/LI]

[LI]This setting adds more movement. You might see faster action, head turns, or finger movements.[/LI]

[LI]There is more activity within the video, making it feel more dynamic.[/LI]

[/UL]

Both low and high motion have their own uses. For example, low motion is great for a calm scene, while high motion works well for something more energetic. It's good to experiment to see what fits your project best. Remember, these are short clips; you can edit them down to the best parts for reels or social media posts.

Exploring Auto and Manual Modes

Midjourney's video model also provides "Auto" and "Manual" options, giving you more control over the generated video.

[LI]

Auto Mode

[/LI]

[LI]This option creates videos based solely on your original image prompt.[/LI]

[LI]It uses the image as a starting point and adds motion without additional input.[/LI]

[LI]

Manual Mode

[/LI]

[LI]Manual mode lets you add new details to your prompt after the initial image is created.[/LI]

[LI]For instance, if you start with "a woman jogging in the park," you can then add "running away from a dog" in manual mode.[/LI]

[LI]Midjourney will then try to include these new elements into the video, creating a new story from your starting image.[/LI]

This manual feature is powerful because it lets you guide the narrative even after the image is made. It shows how Midjourney can handle more specific details in your creative output. For those wanting to push their creative limits, the Midjourney Automation Suite from TitanXT can help automate bulk image and video generation, making your workflow even smoother.

Using Midjourney's Video Feature

The main benefit of this new feature is convenience. You no longer need separate software or subscriptions just to animate your Midjourney images. This saves time and simplifies your tools.

It is perfect for creating short, engaging video clips that you can use for social media posts, short ads, or personal projects. The detail Midjourney adds, like leaves moving or subtle character expressions, makes these videos stand out.
