After taking a bath
text-to-video
Any aspect ratio
High-quality 4K front shot, upper body from waist up — An 18-year-old Norwegian girl stands in a bathroom just out of the shower. Her wet, slicked blonde hair hangs down, and she wears a towel wrapped around her hips. Bright light blue eyes gaze softly, her expression shy and gentle. She tilts her head slightly to one side, raising her hands to adjust her hair. Style & ambiance: cinematic, realistic, soft bathroom lighting, high-detail textures, intimate and natural mood, subtle reflections on wet skin and hair, warm and inviting atmosphere.
Cyberpunk City Text-to-Video Template
Turn a single prompt into a cinematic cyberpunk city sequence—neon lights, flying cars, rainy alleys, and dense futuristic skylines—using Magic Hour’s Text-to-Video engine.
This template is built for creators and teams who want high-impact, sci‑fi visuals without storyboarding, 3D, or traditional VFX pipelines.
What This Template Does
This Text-to-Video template generates short cyberpunk city clips directly from text. It’s ideal for:
- Product launch teasers or startup landing pages
- Music videos and visualizers
- Game trailers, environmental concept art, and mood films
- Social ads and motion backgrounds for streams or events
- Pitch decks and investor presentations needing a futuristic “world”
You describe the environment (e.g., “rainy neon alley with holographic billboards, drone traffic overhead, camera dolly forward”), and Magic Hour turns it into a fully animated cyberpunk scene.
Because it’s prompt-based, you can quickly explore variations of:
- Time of day (night, blue hour, dawn over a mega‑city)
- Weather (heavy rain, fog, smog, reflective puddles)
- City scale (tight alley vs. wide skyline shot vs. street-level crowd)
- Tone (corporate dystopia, noir detective, high‑energy chase, calm ambient loop)
How to Remix This Template in Magic Hour
You don’t need to start from scratch. Use this template as a base and remix:
Open the Text-to-Video product
Go to Text-to-Video. This template is designed around that workflow.Use the existing prompt as a starting point
Start with a structure like:- Setting: “ultra‑dense futuristic Asian megacity at night”
- Visual style: “cinematic, neon‑lit, volumetric lighting, rain‑soaked streets”
- Camera: “slow tracking shot, parallax skyline, depth of field”
- Motion: “flying cars and drones passing by, holograms flicker, pedestrians moving under umbrellas”
Remix for your use case
- For music videos: Emphasize rhythm and atmosphere: “camera glides to the beat, light pulses with music.”
- For ads: Focus on your product: “neon billboard with brand logo, close‑up of device hologram.”
- For games or films: Center world‑building: “towering corporate arcology, dense traffic layers, smog‑filled horizon.”
Chain with other Magic Hour tools (optional)
- Generate key visuals or thumbnails first using the AI Image Generator or AI Photo Generator, then adapt those descriptions into your video prompts.
- Turn still cyberpunk artwork into animated shots using Image-to-Video.
- Create loopable GIFs of your city shots with the AI GIF Generator for socials and messaging.
Example Prompts to Start From
You can paste and adapt these into Magic Hour’s Text-to-Video interface:
1. Aerial city flythrough
“Cinematic flythrough over a cyberpunk megacity at night, endless neon billboards, dense traffic of flying cars, rain falling, wet reflective rooftops, volumetric fog between skyscrapers, slow sweeping camera move, high contrast, inspired by sci‑fi films.”
2. Street‑level alley shot
“Rain‑soaked alley in a dystopian cyberpunk city, neon shop signs in Japanese and Korean, steam rising from vents, crowds under holographic umbrellas, camera tracking forward at walking speed, shallow depth of field, gritty cinematic look.”
3. Corporate skyline reveal
“Wide establishing shot of a corporate cyberpunk skyline, giant holograms and projected ads on skyscrapers, drones patrolling the air, smoggy orange glow on the horizon, slow zoom in, epic sci‑fi mood.”
Use these as a base, then layer in your brand, narrative, or character.

Prompt Design Tips for Better Cyberpunk Video
When you remix this template, you’ll get the most out of Text-to-Video by being specific:
Describe lighting and weather
- “Neon signs reflecting on wet asphalt, heavy rain, blue and magenta color palette, volumetric god rays, light fog at street level.”
Define camera behavior
- “Slow dolly forward,” “handheld tracking shot,” “aerial drone shot,” “wide establishing shot,” “close‑up of billboard.”
This gives the AI a clear cinematic intention.
- “Slow dolly forward,” “handheld tracking shot,” “aerial drone shot,” “wide establishing shot,” “close‑up of billboard.”
Call out style & mood
- References like “neo‑noir,” “Blade Runner‑inspired,” or “anime cyberpunk cityscape” help convey tone (while still creating original content).
Anchor focal points
- Mention what should draw attention: “focus on the massive holographic billboard,” “foreground pedestrian silhouetted against city lights,” “corporate tower dominating the skyline.”
Iterate quickly
- Save prompt variants that work. Small wording changes (“dense crowd” vs. “empty streets,” “slow ambient” vs. “high‑speed chase”) can radically change the feel.
Example Workflow: From Static Concept to Animated City
A practical way to build a cyberpunk sequence using Magic Hour:
Generate concept art
- Use the AI Art Generator or AI Manga Generator to create cyberpunk city stills.
- If you already have sketches or photos, refine them with the AI Image Editor.
Animate key scenes
- Feed your strongest concept images into Image-to-Video to get motion sketches.
- Translate the visual details into richer text prompts for Text-to-Video and generate higher‑fidelity sequences.
Add characters and dialogue
- Create cyberpunk avatars with the AI Face Generator, AI Selfie Generator, or Avatar Generator.
- Make them speak over your city backdrop using AI Talking Photo and Lip Sync.
Finalize for distribution
- Enhance resolution with Video Upscaler.
- Add subtitles via Auto Subtitle Generator.
- Export shorter derivatives as GIFs with the AI GIF Generator.
Who This Template Is For
This cyberpunk city Text-to-Video template is especially useful if you:
- Need production‑quality visuals fast and can’t justify a full VFX budget
- Want to test narrative or product ideas visually before committing design and engineering resources
- Create content regularly and need a reusable, remixable visual system (e.g., recurring segments on a channel, a consistent brand world, a product universe)
Because it’s prompt‑driven, you can keep the same “city DNA” while changing angles, times of day, moods, and story beats.
Start Remixing
- Open Text-to-Video.
- Paste a structured cyberpunk prompt (use the examples above).
- Iterate: adjust city density, lighting, camera motion, and narrative elements.
- Combine with tools like Video Upscaler, AI Voice Generator, Auto Subtitle Generator, and AI GIF Generator to complete your pipeline.
Use this template as your base, and build a distinctive, repeatable cyberpunk visual identity around your product, story, or brand.
