To make a Ghibli-style photo
one that looks like it came from a Studio Ghibli movie—you can use AI tools or photo editing techniques. Here are a few methods depending on your preferences:
1. Use AI Tools (Easiest Way)
Some AI image generators can transform real photos into Ghibli-style art:
Websites / Tools
Artbreeder: You can blend images to give them a dreamy, painterly style.
Fotor AI Anime Generator: Upload a photo, choose "Anime" or “Ghibli” style.
PromeAI: Offers specific art styles, including Studio Ghibli-style filters.
Ghibli Diffusion (on Hugging Face): A model trained specifically to generate Ghibli-style images from text or photo.
You usually just:
1. Upload your photo.
2. Choose "Ghibli" or "Anime" style.
3. Download the result.
2. Use Photoshop or Similar (Manual Method)
This takes more time, but gives you more control.
Steps:
1. Cartoonize the Photo: Use filters (e.g. Poster Edges, Cutout).
2. Adjust Colors: Ghibli art uses soft, natural palettes with pastel tones.
3. Add Lighting & Texture: Add soft sunlight, haze, or painterly textures.
4. Overlay Sky / Backgrounds: Studio Ghibli skies are often detailed and dreamy—consider compositing one in.
