CREATE SUPERHERO AI VIDEOS WITH VIDEOBOLT AND MIDJOURNEY
Dream of being Superman or Captain Marvel? With the innovative power of AI, coupled with Videobolt and Midjourney, embark on your superhero video odyssey today.
This simple five-step guide will launch you on an unforgettable journey, enabling you to create a motion graphics video that takes you straight into the vibrant universes of Marvel and DC Comics. You'll learn how to integrate your chosen images, preferred text, and selected logos into a comic book-style animated environment. This process empowers you to craft electrifying content that mirrors your unique style. So gear up and unleash your inner hero — an extraordinary adventure in content creation awaits.
Step 1: Select your Videobolt template
Start by picking a motion graphics template from Videobolt's expansive library, boasting 11,500+ options. Each one is highly customizable, ready to adapt to your unique content requirements. We've highlighted three templates that superbly mesh with the superhero theme, yet we encourage you to delve deeper and experiment with other templates.
Epic Guardians
This versatile template, designed by one of our Champion Authors, tinomotion, can accommodate up to six images and one logo. It's ideal for crafting impactful intros or outros imbued with a riveting superhero aura.
Marvelous Reveal
This template, created by kalinichev, allows you to showcase your brand in a dynamic comic book-style video. It has the capacity for up to 21 images, four text elements, and one logo.
Comic Strip Logo
For an engaging yet straightforward logo reveal, consider this template by another of Videobolt's Champion Authors, ALEXG1985. This template is one of the most popular on the platform and can incorporate 11 images, one text element, and a logo.
Upon choosing your Videobolt template, take a moment to review its requirements — each template varies in the number of images and text elements it can incorporate, though all three mentioned here support a logo. If your logo comes with a background that's not transparent, we've got your back with some handy, free solutions at your fingertips. And for those who either don't have a logo or prefer to go without one in the video, no sweat — you can easily swap it for a text element during editing.
In the subsequent steps of this guide, we'll take you through the process of creating image components for your video with the help of Midjourney's AI.
Step 2: Capture your character
Choose a portrait image of yourself or someone else you'd like to depict as a comic book character. Remember, the final avatar generated by Midjourney will draw inspiration from your selected photo, not replicate it exactly. To ensure optimal results, pick an image with a plain white background. After finding the ideal photo, upload it to a server such as Discord or Imgur — you'll be using this link in Step 4.
Step 3: Create your environment
Up next is creating your thrilling superhero environment with the help of AI. With the widget below, this process is seamless. Just fill in the input fields with your envisioned setting (city landscape, high-tech laboratory, alien world, etc.) and the dominant color from your Step 2 portrait (typically, this will be the color of the clothing in the photo).
After that, hit the "Copy prompt" button and head over to Midjourney. Paste the copied prompt into their command line and watch as AI transforms your inputs into a dynamic comic book backdrop for your character. Get ready to be amazed!

Step 4: Blend images
Now that you have your portrait and environment images from Steps 2 and 3, it's time to bring them together. Use the widget below to generate the needed prompt.
Begin by filling the input fields with the links to your selected portrait and environment images. Once done, copy the generated prompt. Now, head over to Midjourney, paste your prompt in the command line, and hit enter. Sit back and watch in awe as Midjourney's AI works its magic, transforming your images into a captivating comic book-style tableau.
If the output isn't exactly what you had in mind, don't worry! You'll notice there's another input field in our widget labeled 'Context description'. You can simply add a succinct context there, like "standing in" or "sitting on", along with your chosen environment. Keeping the instructions clear and brief is key, as Midjourney's AI thrives on simple and precise directions.

Below, we've got three sets of portrait and environment images, cooked up into final AI illustrations. Just a little taste of the superheroic transformations you can achieve.
With your first AI-generated comic book-style image downloaded, you've already made a significant stride on your creative path. However, your superhero story might need more characters or diverse scenarios, and this is where you can continue to use the power of AI.
Revisit steps 2, 3, and 4 for every additional image you plan to incorporate into your final video. Whether you're using a series of portraits of the same person or introducing different individuals, you have the freedom to create. Further enrich your narrative by placing characters in various environments.
Here's a neat trick: juggle between crafting your own AI-generated images and dipping into the cool images already included in our templates. This smart combo is a real time-saver, making content creation a breeze while still keeping things unique and engaging.
With your arsenal of images ready, you're well on your way to finalizing your superhero story.
Step 5: Crafting your masterpiece
Now that you've prepared your images using Midjourney's AI technology, it's time to bring it all together. Head back to Videobolt, access the template you've selected, and begin personalizing it. Once done, hit the Produce & Download button and let the superhero adventure begin!
And that's a wrap! You've unlocked the power of AI and dived into the world of comic book superheroes. The blend of Videobolt templates and Midjourney's AI capabilities has allowed you to craft a stunning, superhero-themed video that is sure to captivate your audience. So, don't hang up your cape just yet; there are countless more stories for you to tell. With these tools at your disposal, the only limit is your imagination. Happy creating!
