How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Upload any photo you want to transform. Clear subjects with good contrast convert best for ghibli filter style effects. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

    Expect: Simple photos: 15-30 seconds. Complex scenes with lots of detail: may need 1-2 refinements.
  2. Describe the Ghibli style you want

    Type your instruction: 'transform this photo into Studio Ghibli art style' or 'convert to Miyazaki anime style with soft colors and painterly look.' The AI understands what Ghibli aesthetic means - those dreamy skies, lush greens, and hand-painted textures.

    Tip: Mention specific Ghibli films for different moods: 'Spirited Away' for magical vibes, 'My Neighbor Totoro' for warm countryside, 'Howl's Moving Castle' for fantastical scenes.

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Classic Ghibli transformation transform this photo into Studio Ghibli art style with soft colors, dreamy atmosphere, and hand-painted look
    Spirited Away magical vibe make this look like a scene from Spirited Away with ethereal lighting, rich colors, and mystical Ghibli atmosphere

    Portrait to Ghibli character transform this portrait into Ghibli anime art style - expressive eyes, soft shading, warm skin tones, whimsical character feel
    2 more prompts
    Landscape to Ghibli background turn this landscape into a Ghibli movie background - painterly clouds, soft lighting, detailed foliage, that distinctive hand-painted texture
    Pet in Ghibli style apply Ghibli aesthetic to this pet photo - soft fur texture, warm expressive eyes, Miyazaki anime style, like a creature from a Ghibli film
  3. Generate and review

    Tap generate and examine the result. Check that the painterly texture looks right and colors have that warm, nostalgic Ghibli quality. The best results feel like they could be a frame from an actual Miyazaki film.
