Restyle the footage, keep the performance

Video to Anime with Genjutsu AI

To turn a normal video into anime without re-animating it, choose Style, describe the look (for example "1990s hand-drawn anime") and generate: the subjects, composition, performance and timing are kept and only the rendering changes. No reference image is required, and the source audio is restored. Genjutsu AI is an independent Genjutsu-style editor, not Higgsfield.

Matching a specific look

To match a particular style, add one to three frames of it as images and write "Match the style of Image 1 across every frame." Style images are sent as plain references, without the face review used for photos of people. Use footage and images you have the rights to use.

Real person to anime character, or restyle?

  • Style mode keeps the same people and redraws everything in a new look.
  • Character mode replaces the person with a specific anime or 3D character from your image while the rest of the shot stays realistic. See motion transfer.

Video to anime questions

Can I turn a normal video into anime without re-animating it?

Yes. Choose Style and describe the look. The edit keeps the same subjects, composition, performance and timing and changes only the rendering, so you do not animate anything by hand or generate a new scene from text.

Do I need a reference image for an anime restyle?

No. Style is the one change that works with words alone. Add one to three example frames only when you want to match a specific look.

Will the people still look like themselves?

They stay recognisable in pose, hair, clothing and framing, but faces are redrawn in the new style, so likeness is approximate. If you want a specific anime character to replace the person, use Character mode with that character’s image instead.

Can I make it 3D or clay instead of anime?

Yes. Describe any look: 3D animated feature, claymation, pixel art, watercolour, comic book, noir film. Copyable style prompts are listed on this page.

Can I turn my cat or dog video into a cartoon?

Yes. Upload the clip, choose Style and describe the cartoon look; the pet keeps its movement and only the rendering changes.

Which model is best for anime?

Seedance 2.5 keeps motion and framing closest and supports up to 30 seconds (175 credits for 10 seconds at 720p). Seedance 2.0 Mini and Fast are fine for style drafts (19 and 69 credits for 10 seconds at 720p).

Keep the take. Change the world in it.
