Getting Started: Setting Up Your Kaiber Account

Before we dive into the animation process, you’ll need to create a Kaiber account.

How to Use Kaiber AI to Transform Your Art

Step 1: Preparing Your Drawing for Animation

To get the best results, your drawings need to be in a high-quality format. Here’s how to prepare your artwork:

Upload the Drawing: For example, use Canva or any similar tool to enhance your drawing. Remove the background if needed.
Size and Format: Increase the size of your drawing to ensure clarity in the final animation. Export it as a PNG file with a transparent background. You can also use Photoshop or other online services to achieve this.

Step 2: Uploading Your Drawing to Kaiber

Once you have your drawing ready, it’s time to upload it to Kaiber:

Access the Super Studio: Navigate to Kaiber’s Super Studio on the platform. Look for the “flow menu” and choose “image flow.”
Image Lab: Click on “image lab,” and a box will appear with various options to style your images. You can either let Kaiber generate styles or input your own.

Step 3: Stylizing Your Artwork

Add some flair to your drawing by giving it a unique aesthetic:

Select an Aesthetic: You can type in your own style ideas or choose from Kaiber’s preset options. For example, stylize your fish drawing in the style of “The Jetsons,” a classic retro cartoon.
Apply the Style: Leave other settings as is and click the happy face button to apply the selected aesthetic to your drawing.

Step 4: Animating Your Drawing

Bring your artwork to life with animation:

Animation Flow: Once your styled drawing appears on the canvas, hover over it and click “Use in Flow.” Select “Video Flows” and choose the “Kling” standard video model for an affordable yet effective animation option.
Create the Animation: Describe your animation subject, like “a fish swimming with bubbles.” Choose the animation length (5 or 10 seconds) and monitor the credit cost.
