Prompt Guide - How to Transform Anyone into an Underground DJ with AI

Want to turn anyone into a headline DJ at a gritty underground club? With our AI tools, you can transform a standard photo into a realistic DJ set and then animate it into a high-energy video.

Step 1: Create the DJ Image

Start with a reference image of your choice. In this example, we’ve used Vecna from Stranger Things, but the more recognizable the face, the better the result.

1. Open Motionize.ai → Image Editor
2. Upload your reference image
3. Use the base prompt below and adjust the placeholders as needed

Base Prompt:

A candid photograph captures the person as a DJ, actively mixing music on a professional Pioneer DJ setup (CDJs and mixer). They are in a dark nightclub setting with purple and blue LED stage lights casting beams and ambient glow on the concrete back wall, which has exposed wires and posters. Blurred figures of people dance and reach up in the foreground, enjoying the music. The atmosphere is energetic and intimate. Ultra-realistic, cinematic lighting, gritty club photography style.

Tip: Use the image editor to add custom event posters or a personalized logo to the DJ booth for that extra touch of authenticity.

Step 2: Make it a Video

Now for the best part: bringing the underground set to life. Use Image-to-Video to add movement, rhythm, and the pulsing energy of the dance floor.

1. Open Motionize.ai → Image to Video
2. Upload your generated DJ image
3. Use this video prompt:

Video Prompt:

The people are dancing like they do in a club. The DJ is focused and bouncing to the beat. Subtle camera movement, pulsing stage lights, and dynamic shadows. [Handheld camera style, Slow zoom in, Cinematic motion]
