The most OP workflow in my opinion.

- ChatGPT: prompting
- Midjourney: image generation
- Topaz Labs: upscaling
- Runway: image-to-video generation

If you aren't convinced, look in the comments.
The quality though...
But wait, there's more.
Lastly, here's the still. Long press on it, load in 4k, and zoom in on those details. Holy heck. Image
Prompt I used in Runway (image-to-video):

"Add flowing motion to the waterfalls so they cascade continuously and naturally. Animate the water in the river below with gentle ripples and reflections. Subtly move tree branches and foliage with a soft breeze. Add light movement to the glowing blue water to emphasize its depth. Simulate mist rising where the waterfalls hit the pool. Keep the camera completely stable."

Holy sh*t. Sound on. 🔊

Endless looping, animated Airbnb-style icon with AI generated sound, all in one app.

Full tutorial below.
To do all of this, we'll use ChatGPT to generate the initial icon. Simple as this: Image
Next, let's head over to Kling.

Switch the model to Kling 1.6 (2.0 doesn't support start/end frame selection).

This option is at the top of your screen.

Upload the same photo for the start and end frame as shown below, enter a simple prompt and let it cook. Image

Animated Airbnb-style icons with AI. ☕️

ChatGPT + Runway (full tutorial below).
Started off with a screenshot of Airbnb's icons and a simple prompt. Image
Had to provide one follow-up prompt to get exactly what I wanted. Image

Another day, another tutorial.

This time; how to make Perplexity-style video (no video experienced required).

Let's jump into it.
First things first: we need to generate an image to use.

I roughly knew I wanted a man standing in a field of grass, so I told ChatGPT to generate a few prompt options surrounding this idea, in the style of a Perplexity advertisement.

Here's the one I ran with:

"A man standing alone in a dark field at night, illuminated by a soft circular spotlight on the grass below him. The grass is slightly dewy and glows under the light. The surroundings fade into darkness. The scene is quiet, contemplative, and surreal. The man wears a white dress shirt and brown trousers, casting a long shadow behind him. Cinematic lighting, volumetric glow, high contrast between light and dark, warm tones. In the style of a Perplexity AI advertisement."
As you can see, ChatGPT took:

1) Man standing in field of grass
2) Perplexity-style ad

and filled in the in-between with rich details.

ChatGPT is your best friend when it comes to constructing cool scenes and prompts.

The secret hack to generating images like this. 👀

Every creator should read this. Image
Looking through Pinterest, I looked up surreal art and came across the image below.

This will serve as my inspiration. Image
To recreate something similiar, I could have uploaded it to Midjourney as a reference, and generated something in the same vain.

But oftentimes it's more exciting to see what Midjourney comes up on its own without a reference image.

So I needed to craft a prompt.

Probably one of the most valuable posts I've ever made on design and AI.

You need to learn this workflow.

Buckle here. Here's the full tutorial: Image
First, let's combine style and image references in Midjourney.

I've provided 2 style references, and one 1 image reference below if you want to follow along with this tutorial.

The dark-style images define the mood, whereas the building image defines the subject(s). Download now.Image

Image
Let's take these images and throw them in Midjourney exactly as I do below:

"landscape": tells MJ the subject I want generated (feel free to be as specific or broad as you want here).

"--ex 100": a new parameter MJ just introduced that can create some unexpected creative results. Changing the number anywhere from 0-100 affects the results drastically, so have fun with it.

"--ar 12:16": simply tells MJ what aspect ratio you want to generate. In this case, it's 12:16.

Then hit Enter to start generating.
