-
Animate stills into breathtaking video clips
-
Add professional soundscapes with ElevenLabs

Let’s dive in.
Step 1: Write the Story with ChatGPT
Every legendary film begins with a powerful story. For our dragon, I used ChatGPT to craft a cinematic narrative:
“Write a short cinematic story about a black dragon glowing with purple fire, standing on a mountain peak, thundering and breathing out purple light.”
Here’s the result:
“Night draped the mountains in silence. Then a tremor shook the jagged crown of a forgotten peak. He rose. The black dragon, ancient and vast, unfolded his wings like torn banners of shadow. His scales shimmered with a hidden glow, purple fire pulsing beneath obsidian armor — as if stars were trapped inside him. The wind stilled, the earth held its breath. Then came the roar.”
This short script gave me the perfect foundation to build our cinematic sequence.
Step 2: Create Images with Kling AI
Next, we need stunning visuals. Instead of relying on external tools, I crafted prompts directly in Kling AI to generate breathtaking stills.
Example Prompt:
“Epic black dragon with glowing purple highlights. Standing on a mountain peak under storm clouds. Wings spread wide. Cinematic fantasy. Ultra detail. 4K dramatic lighting.”
Kling delivered several jaw-dropping stills:
-
A dragon perched with violet-shimmering scales
-
Another with wings stretched against stormy skies
-
A final shot unleashing a stream of purple fire across the clouds
These frames looked like concept art straight from a Hollywood fantasy film — yet they were generated in minutes.
Step 3: Animate with Kling AI
This is where the magic happens. Kling AI doesn’t just create images; it transforms stills into cinematic video clips that feel alive.
How I Did It:
-
Upload the chosen still (e.g., the dragon perched on the cliff).
-
Enter a focused animation prompt.
Here’s the exact prompt I used:
“Camera slowly rises from the bottom of the cliff. The black dragon’s scales glow with a purple shimmer. Wind howls through the peaks. Lightning flickers faintly in the clouds.”
Pro Tip:
Keep your prompts simple and focused.
Think like a film director — one scene, a few key actions. Too many verbs can confuse the AI.
The Result:
In just minutes, Kling AI turned that single still into a stunning 5-second cinematic clip with:
-
Smooth camera movement
-
Shimmering light across the dragon’s scales
-
A stormy, living atmosphere
Repeat this process for each still (dragon perched, wings spread, breathing fire). Then stitch them together, and you’ve got a fantasy sequence worthy of the big screen.
And the best part?
-
Runs entirely in the cloud (no need for a powerful PC)
-
Costs only ~100 coins per 5 seconds of video
-
Produces jaw-dropping quality that rivals professional studios
Step 4: Create Sound and Ambience with ElevenLabs
Cinematic visuals are nothing without immersive sound. To give our dragon his world, I combined ChatGPT and ElevenLabs.
Step 4.1: Design the Sound Script with ChatGPT
I asked ChatGPT:
“Write a cinematic ambient soundscape for a black dragon glowing with purple fire, roaring on a stormy mountain.”
Here’s the script:
-
Rolling thunder builds in the distance
-
A crack of lightning splits the sky
-
A deep, echoing dragon roar shakes the cliffs
-
Wind howls through jagged peaks
-
Sparks of purple fire crackle in the darkness
Step 4.2: Generate Sound in ElevenLabs
Instead of hunting sound effects, I pasted this script into ElevenLabs’ sound design tool.
Within seconds, ElevenLabs produced a layered cinematic audio track with thunder, lightning, wind, and the dragon’s roar — perfectly mixed and ready to use.
All I had to do was download the MP3 and import it into my project.
Step 5: Edit and Sync in CapCut
Finally, I brought everything together in CapCut:
-
Imported the Kling AI video clips in sequence
-
Added the ElevenLabs soundscape underneath
-
Balanced audio so the dragon’s roar stood out without overpowering the thunder and wind
-
Added smooth fade transitions between scenes
-
Inserted a cinematic on-screen caption (also created with Kling AI)
The result?
A seamless, Hollywood-quality dragon short film — created in under one hour.
