Creating content for Microsoft's largest corporate event - Microsoft Build.


The base images used in these chain prompts were captured as corporate event photos on location at Microsoft Build. The photos were brought into Midjourney and then animated using Runway Gen. 2.

Step #1


I prompted Midjourney by uploading my base image (a corporate event photo) and then used image weight commands to control how close my prompt would look to the original image. In this case my prompt was an astronaut using a laptop.

Astronaut works on laptop computer under green aurora sky in rocky terrain.

Step #2


I then brought the Midjourney image into Runway Gen 2. Play the video below to see how it turned out.

Step #3 - Final Product


I then brought the RunWay video into Adobe After Effects where I added motion graphics, fonts, and colors that were on brand for Microsoft.

Integrating Photoshop


Midjourney was not used for this example. A corporate event photograph was taken into Photoshop where a poster filter was applied. The new image was then brought into Runway Gen. 2 for the animation.
