Midjourney Video

Midjourney Video markets itself as 25 times cheaper than competing tools, which is the main reason to look at it, though that figure is the site's own claim and no plan names or prices are given here.

It is an AI video generator that turns a still image into a short animated clip, using image-to-video technology.

You upload your own picture in JPG, WEBP or PNG format, with a maximum size of 5MB.

Midjourney Video then animates it, and you pick between automatic animation or manual controls.

Motion can be set to low or high, which decides how much the scene moves.

The workflow has three steps, so there is little to learn before you get a result.

The catch is length.

Clips come out at 5 seconds, and some outputs run to 8, so this is an AI animation generator for short loops, social posts and moving previews of artwork, not for anything long.

If you need longer scenes, you would have to stitch several clips together yourself.

Midjourney Video suits people who already have images and want cheap, quick motion from them.
