Have you ever wondered how people are creating those mind-blowing, AI-generated hybrid animal videos? You’ve seen lion with jellyfish, Wolf with eagle, or sharks mixed with gorilla, right? Well, today, I’m going to show you exactly how to create these incredible images using free AI tools—and it’s easier than you think!
Not only that, I’ll also show you how to turn those images into epic videos that are perfect for any social media platform.
Thousands of people are already using these tools to make amazing content, and some of their creations are going viral! So, stay tuned, because by the end of this guide, you’ll be able to create your hybrid animal short video.
Step 1: Generating Hybrid Animal Prompts Using ChatGPT
First things first, we need to create the perfect prompt for generating your hybrid animal image. For this, we’re going to use ChatGPT. It’s a free and simple tool that anyone can access.
- Open your browser and search for “ChatGPT.” If you haven’t used it before, just sign up—it’s free.
- Once you’re in, type this command. I will share it in a video description below.
● PROMPT 1 ● “I am looking to create unique, visually captivating hybrid animal AI images. Please provide me with 10 detailed prompts that blend two or more distinct animals into a single, cohesive creature. Each prompt should describe the specific characteristics of each animal being merged, such as their colors, textures, body features, and unique traits. Additionally, include any specific environments or natural settings that could enhance the overall aesthetic of the hybrid animals. The goal is to create imaginative, yet realistic, hybrid creatures that look like they could exist in the natural world. Make sure each description is vivid and accurate enough to inspire the creation of highly detailed and lifelike images”
What happens next is ChatGPT will give you 10 different prompts to choose from. These can be combinations like a lion mixed with a jellyfish, or something more wild like a tiger and a hawk!
Copy one of the prompts you like and then paste the prompt you copied, and add a semicolon. Then type something like “Please modify this prompt to create a normal nature image with a lion and jellyfish separately.”
This step is super important because it helps generate a more detailed, specific image that’s going to look amazing.
Step 2: Creating the Image Using Ideogram
Now that you have your AI-generated prompt, it’s time to turn it into an actual image. This is where we use Ideogram, a powerful AI tool designed for image creation.
- Open your browser again and search for “Ideogram.”
- When you’re on the site, create an account (or log in if you already have one).
Now, take the prompt you generated earlier and paste it into the text box. Before you hit generate, make sure to set the aspect ratio to 9:1—this ensures the image comes out in the right size and looks great.
Hit Generate and give it about a minute. After a minute, your image will be ready. You’ll get four different versions of your hybrid animal. Cool, right?
Pick the one you like the most, click on the three dots, and download the image as a JPG file. Repeat this process if you want more variations!
Next, you’ll want to generate a second prompt image. To do this, just paste a second prompt into Ideogram. Click Generate and wait for the image to be ready. It’s always good to have two images when creating a video, so let’s download both.
Step 3: Transforming Your Images into a Video
Now, let’s bring these images together into an animated video. To do this, we’ll use Vidu AI and Runway ML, These tools are perfect for turning images into animated, eye-catching videos.
First, visit the Vidu AI website. When you get there, click on “Try Vidu AI.” You’ll need to log in, so you can either create a new account or quickly log in using your Google account.
Now, let’s start making a video. Click on “Create Video” to enter the main interface.
One of the coolest features of Vidu AI is its ability to turn an image into a video. Let me show you how it works. I’m uploading the image we created earlier using the ideogram. After the image uploads, you can type whatever you want. I’m going to click “Create” without adding any extra text.
Here’s the video! Pretty amazing, right? You can always click “Upscale” to improve the video quality even more.
Another great tool is Runway ML. Go to the Runway ML site using the link and sign up with your Google account. Once you’re on the dashboard, click on “Generative Video.”
Next, upload your image and write a description of the scene you want below it. Then, choose how long you want the video to last and click “Generate.”
In just a few clicks, you’ll have a smooth, animated video!
Step 4: Editing the Final Video in CapCut
Now that you have your basic video, let’s make it more professional with CapCut. CapCut is a free video editor that works on both mobile and PC. You can combine your clips, trim them, and add effects or transitions. For music, you can get free tracks from Pixabay or YouTube’s Audio Library, sync them with your video, and you’re all set!
