Viggle AI allows you to create VFX wonders in minutes

Have you ever dreamt of starring in your favorite animation? Maybe you wanted to bust a groovy move alongside the cast of a classic dance video, or perhaps you envisioned yourself saving the day in a heart-stopping action sequence.

Viggle AI makes these dreams a playful possibility.

This innovative tool harnesses the power of artificial intelligence to transform the animation landscape, allowing you to seamlessly insert yourself into existing animations using just a picture. It opens exciting avenues for professionals and hobbyists alike. From social media stardom to eye-catching presentations, Viggle AI unlocks a treasure trove of creative applications.

How does Viggle AI work?

So, how exactly does Viggle AI achieve this feat?

Viggle AI takes a video clip and an image as input. Then, powered by JST-1, a machine learning model, it dissects the movement patterns within the video. With this understanding, Viggle AI applies those same patterns to your picture.

The result?

A brand new animation where your photo seamlessly replaces the original character, bringing your picture to life with surprising fluidity.

And the best part?

It is completely free to use!

Mix, generate, let it roll!

Viggle AI might seem like a simple tool at first glance, but it packs a surprising punch with its core feature set. Let’s delve into the dynamic trio that makes Viggle AI such a versatile animation playground:

Mix

The “Mix” feature takes center stage, allowing you to seamlessly blend your photo with a chosen video clip. Powered by JST-1, Viggle AI analyzes the movement patterns in the video and expertly applies them to your image.

Viggle AI’s “Animate” feature goes beyond just mixing your photo with existing animations. It empowers you to take things a step further.

Imagine having a fun picture of yourself striking a cool pose. With Animate, you can bring that pose to life!

This feature lets you create basic animations from your photos, adding another layer of creative possibility to the mix.

Instead of “Ideate,” let’s call it “generate”.

Thanks to this feature called “Ideate”, the artificial intelligence tool can work even if you do not have any visuals. All you have to do is give the prompt of two different images or animations that you will mix and Viggle AI will create the animation in your mind for you.

Ready to unleash your inner animator with Viggle AI? Here’s a breakdown of how to get started and create your own personalized animations:

Just like Midjourney, Viggle AI uses Discord’s interface to run so the very first step is to head over to their official Discord server and join it.

After that, Viggle AI offers multiple channels to jumpstart your creative journey. You can find them listed as “animate-1,” “animate-2,” and so on. Pick any channel and it is time to get creative!

Mixing it up

The “/mix: mix a character image into a motion video” command unlocks the magic of blending your photo with an existing animation. Here’s how to make it work:

1. Grab a clear picture of yourself (or whoever you want to animate) facing the front and ideally showcasing your full body. The better the picture, the smoother the animation transfer will be.
2. Find a video clip that features clear human motion and captures your animation vision. Remember, the video should be under 30 seconds long and boast a resolution higher than 720p for optimal results.

Once you’ve uploaded both your picture and chosen video clip, type “/mix” in the chat to initiate the animation process. Viggle AI will analyze the video’s movements and seamlessly apply them to your image, creating a brand new animation where you take center stage!

Animation from scratch

Feeling creative? The “/animate: animate a static character with a text motion prompt” command lets you bring your photos to life with basic animation. Here’s how to use it:

1. Similar to mixing, you’ll need a clear picture of your chosen character facing forward and ideally showcasing their full body.
2. Describe the motion you want your character to perform in the text prompt.

Ideate and ignite

Can’t quite picture the perfect animation? No worries! The “/ideate: create a character video purely from text”!

Let your imagination run wild! Describe the character you envision coming to life in your animation.

Your way to success

• When choosing your picture, ensure it features only one character with a clear view of their full body and ideally facing forward.
• The video clip you choose should showcase clear human motion and be under 30 seconds long. Higher resolutions (above 720p) will also yield better results.

While Viggle AI is currently optimizing animation for human characters, they’re working on expanding their capabilities. Soon, you’ll be able to animate your favorite furry friends (dogs, cats) and even fantastical creatures!

So, grab your pictures, find the perfect video clips, and unleash your creative spirit!
