Previously, we have talked about how to generate Ghibli art images from photos for free. Now, in this article, I will show you how to create Ghibli video free online with the help of AI tools. Ghibli art is a popular and unique style of Japanese animation studio. It is characterized by beautiful pastel colors, hand-drawn style, and expressive characters. This art is popular among anime fans due to its hand-drawn style and its emotionally resonant storytelling.
Create Ghibli Video free Online with Hailuo AI
You can easily create Ghibli video free online from your photo with the help of the Hailuo AI tool. Hailuo is a powerful AI tool that allows you to generate images and videos. Additionally, it has a lot of amazing features that you can use to refine your output images and videos. Currently, image generation supports only text input. This means you can generate images using this tool by inputting prompts. For video generation, it supports the following three types of inputs:
- Image to video
- Text to video
- Subject reference
The last feature (Subject reference) allows you to transform your still photograph into a video based on your imagination. For example, if you imagine yourself as a cowboy, you can generate a video of yourself as a cowboy with this tool. Give your photo to this tool as a reference and type the required prompt, as simple as that!

How to Write prompts to Generate Ghibli Videos with AI
Above, I have shown how to create Ghibli video free online. For this, you need to enter a prompt. You cannot generate a Ghibli video of your choice from your image until you type the prompt that describes your requirement to the AI tool. If you cannot write prompts by yourself, you can take the help of other AI tools, such as ChatGPT, Gemini, etc.
Simply visit the AI tool website, such as ChatGPT or Gemini, and explain your requirements. First, upload the Ghibli image on ChatGPT or Gemini, then write a prompt such as:
I want to convert this Ghibli image into a video in which this girl turns towards the camera, opens her eyes, and smiles. Please write a prompt for me.
It will generate the prompt for you. Now, you can use that prompt to generate Ghibli videos from photos. The photo you use to generate a Ghibli video should be the same as the one you used to generate the prompt.
The Final Touch
After generating the video, it’s time to give it a final touch by adding some sound effects. Use any free video editor tool to add sound effects or music to your generated video. I finally edited my video by adding a sound effect. The above video shows the find output.
