Generate an AI character for any creative project.

AI characters can enhance many creative projects — from game design and concept art to animation, storytelling and more. Firefly works best when you tell it how and where you want to use your character. Add motion to your character with the Generate Video feature. Whether you’re building a sci-fi hero, a fantasy creature or an anime-inspired mastermind, a little direction goes a long way. Let your ideas take the lead.

Get precise results from your AI character prompts.

Use generative AI and simple text prompts to create AI characters quickly. Use detailed descriptions with adjectives like "friendly grey-and-white cat in a frilly blue dress" or genre like "anime style". Add additional descriptive words to your prompt to adjust shape, attitude and more. The more specific your prompt, the more accurate your results will be. You can keep refining your character with the AI image editor or the AI video generator, applying subtle edits to lighting, texture, colour and more.

How to create an AI generated character.

To get started using the AI character generator, log in to Firefly with your Adobe account or sign up for an Adobe account. Navigate to the Generate tab and select Generate Image or Generate Video to start creating your AI character.

Type in your character design description. Your prompt should be as specific as possible to describe your character's hair, outfits, facial features and more. If you are making a video, include motion direction such as style, angle, effects, environment and any other elements to generate what matches your vision. You can also upload an image you want Firefly to animate and use a text prompt to direct how the still image should move, transform or come to life.

Adjust your prompt or try different movements to achieve the desired look or use the Colour and Tone, Lighting and Composition menus to add more direction. Enhance the image by adjusting its colour levels and adding filters, animation effects, graphics and more.

When you’re satisfied with your prompt, click Generate. The AI generated character results will appear shortly. Adjust your prompt until you are happy with your results or use the Enhance Prompt tool in Firefly for further prompting ideas.

Save and download your AI character. Include it in your other projects and share them online straight from Adobe Firefly.
