@ai.for.real.life: MidJourney’s New Video Generator – Hit or Hype? I ran a real-world test using client work. Here’s what I found. Everyone’s buzzing about MidJourney’s release of its V1 video model its first image-to-video tool but does it live up to the hype? Here’s how it works: you upload an image and click “Animate.” You can choose between automatic motion generation or write your own custom motion prompt. You also pick between Low Motion and High Motion styles. The system then gives you four video clips, each about 5 seconds long, and you can extend them in 4-second increments up to 21 seconds total. I tested it on client visuals and some older projects. At first, I wasn’t impressed the animations felt off, sometimes glitchy or flat. But when I tried it again using images designed with the model in mind, the results were way stronger. So yeah, what you feed it matters. The output is 480p at 24 frames per second, and it keeps that classic MidJourney style: dreamy, painterly, and stylized. If you’re expecting photorealism or cinematic storytelling like what you’d get from Runway Gen-2 or Google’s Veo, this isn’t that. But for visual art and concept design, it’s got a vibe. Yes, you can prompt it either use MidJourney’s auto-motion or write your own with the –motion flags. You’ve also got the option to run it in raw mode for more control over how the animation plays out. And no, it’s not free. But you can access the video tool on the $10/month Basic plan. Video generations use about 8x the GPU credits of an image, but you’ll still be able to create several animations before your credits run out. It’s not unlimited, but it’s definitely usable. Compared to other platforms like Runway, Pika Labs, and Leonardo (which now integrates Google Veo 3), MidJourney’s version is more limited no timeline editor, no multi-shot scenes, no keyframe control. But it’s still a welcome step forward for fans of the platform and for anyone looking to bring their art to life without switching tools. So what do you think? Is this a game-changer for MidJourney artists? Or is it more of a polished preview than a fully baked feature? Drop your thoughts in the comments. I want to know is this a hit or just more hype? #MidJourneyVideo #AIAnimation #AIArtTools #RunwayML #PikaLabs #VideoGeneration #AICreativity
