Generate Longer, Cohesive Videos

Many video models only create clips up to 8 seconds long. Midjourney changes this. You can now make videos up to 21 seconds long. What’s even better is that your scene stays the same throughout the entire video.

Other tools might stitch together several short clips. This can lead to different results in each part. Midjourney gives you one continuous scene. This means consistent visual quality from start to finish.

This new video feature works as an image-to-video model. You create images in Midjourney like you normally would. Then, you turn those high-quality images into a video. This means you keep that pure Midjourney look, but now it moves.

Simple Video Creation for Everyone

The best part about this new feature is how simple it is to use. It’s great for people who are just starting out with video. You don’t need to be an expert to make great clips.

To make your Midjourney experience even smoother, consider using the

    Make Your Videos Longer

    What if you want your 21-second video to be even longer?

    Extend from the Current Image View

    Once you have a video you’re happy with, you can extend it. Find the video and select it. The ‘Animate’ button will now show as ‘Extend Video’. You can then choose ‘high motion’, ‘low motion’, ‘auto’, or ‘manual’ again to keep adding to your clip.

    Extend Directly from the Main Page

    You can also extend videos right from the main Midjourney page. Just move your mouse over the image. You will see options like ‘Extend Auto’ or ‘Extend Manual’. Click one of these buttons to make your video longer without opening it first.
