I animated my book covers (the results are hilarious)
Share
I was recently introduced to a program called "Kling AI." I'm using it to create video ads for my books. However, in the process of trying to animate the cover art for some of my books, I got some hilarious results.
I won't be using these on ads... but I wanted to share them with you here. I did the first few as animated GIFs but the rest were too big for that. So they're short videos.
Which is your favorite? Let me know with a comment below!!!
DEADLY DOLLS: (I'm pretty sure Sebastian's reaction here is exactly the reaction some of the readers had to the creepy dolls in that book). - See SEBASTIAN WINTER series here.
WYRMRIDER VENGEANCE (Zombie Shark, do do da-do da-do). (from FOMORIAN WYRMRIDERS)
DEATH RITES (If there's ever a snake who could get too "handsy" it's Pauli) (From the VOODOO LEGACY)
THE DRUID LEGACY (I asked it to show them fighting the dragon... I think it got confused. Then again, Druids can shapeshift... but what exactly is he??) (See Series HERE)
BLOODY BRILLIANCE (That guy at the end doesn't stand a chance... though I can't tell if she's about to bite him, or hock a loogie in his face) (From THE FURY OF A VAMPIRE WITCH)
BLOODY QUEEN (Very nice... but the end??? The command/prompt was "a vampire queen commanding her loyal subjects") (From THE FURY OF A VAMPIRE WITCH)
SHIFT ON A SHINGLE (Lindsay Sterling, eat your heart out). From THE LEGEND OF NYX
THE CURSE OF CAIN (When you're supposed to shift into a werewolf, and there's a lunar eclipse... you get extra appendages instead) Also, Dayum Cain... you been workin' out?) From THE VILOKAN ASYLUM OF THE MAGICALLY AND MENTALLY DERANGED.
GHOULS AND GRIMOIRES (definitely not the mood I was going for here... I mean, what's she doing? Singing Popular from Wicked to the skull?) From THE BLOOD WITCH SAGA

Dude the animations were spectacular! They make me want to read the books again. When are the movies coming out? Great job!
Fantastic!!!!!
The first few were great. Some towards the end…
You should ask the guy who made the original cover to take his shirt off so we can compare the reality to AI. 😂
I love ‘em!!!! Here’s a thought, animate your books(I wish)
These are gorgeous & absolutely amazing! Seeing them “come to life,” so to speak is remarkable!
