Step 1: Download Character Reference Images

The most important rule: do not try to generate the character from scratch using AI. Prompting for a specific character like Monkey D’ Luffy or Roronoa Zoro will almost always produce inconsistent results.

Instead, download official or high-quality reference images of the characters directly from the web. Search for the character name and look for clean, front-facing or clear-angle images.

• Use Google Image Search or Pinterest for reference images
• Look for images where the character is clearly visible, ideally front-facing or 3/4 view
• Higher resolution = better results in the next step

Step 2: Generate a Front-Facing Portrait Using Nano Banana Pro

Once you have the reference image, use Google Nano Banana Pro (Gemini image generation) to transform the character into a clean, front-facing portrait ready for motion control.

Upload your reference image and use this prompt:

Change this character to a front facing 4K realistic chest-up portrait, body and face, facing the camera, smiling.

You can adjust "smiling" to neutral, serious, or any expression that fits your video. Rinse and repeat this step for each character you want to use.

Note: Nano Banana Pro may apply stricter content filters for female characters. If your result gets blocked or looks off, switch to Qwen Image Edit or Flux 2 pro image editing tools as alternatives.

Step 3: Apply Motion Control Using Kling 2.6 in Sjinn.

Now the fun part. Head over to Sjinn and search for the Kling Motion Control tool.

1. Open SJINN and search for "Kling Motion Control" in the tools search
2. Upload the portrait image you generated in Step 2 as your character reference
3. Upload your reference video — this is a recording of yourself performing the actions, movements, and expressions you want the character to replicate
4. The prompt field is optional — you can leave it blank or add a short description of the scene or mood
5. Generate the output and review

The motion control tool will map your movements onto the character, making it mimic how you naturally move and talk. This is what gives the output a more authentic, human feel compared to standard AI video generation.

Step 4: Adding Voice (Pro Tip)

You have two options when it comes to voice.

Option A: Transfer Your Own Voice

When you record yourself as the reference video, Kling can transfer your voice into the output. Speak naturally in your recording and your voice will carry through to the character.

Option B: Use ElevenLabs for a Custom Voice

If you want to use a different voice entirely, run your script through ElevenLabs to generate the audio, then sync it with your motion control output in your video editor.
