AI Animation: Animating Midjourney images with Photoshop and After Effects

AI Animation: Animating Midjourney images: Midjourney is among the most potent AI Art Generation programs. However, it has a limitation – the inability to animate the incredible images it produces. Enter this course!

By leveraging additional tools and techniques within the Adobe Suite, we'll unlock the ability to animate the stunning AI images generated by Midjourney, adding a subtle yet realistic camera move. If you don't have access to Midjourney, no worries! I'll provide my image for you, or you can use one of the many free AI image generators showcased in the second video of this course. You'll need Photoshop and After Effects, both of which offer free trials to follow along.
