Frequently asked questions
Is KidsStoryteller.ai a good Midjourney alternative?
Yes, if what you are making is a story. Midjourney is one of the best tools for single, gallery-quality images. KidsStoryteller.ai is built for the whole story: it builds every scene from your saved characters, plans the shots, narrates in your chosen voice, can add background music and delivers one finished MP4 — up to 10 minutes in 16:9 for YouTube or up to 3 minutes in 9:16 for Shorts and TikTok.
Can Midjourney make videos with narration?
Midjourney's video is image-to-video: one image becomes a 5-second clip that can be extended up to 21 seconds, at 480p by default (720p on Standard plans and up, in Fast mode). Its documentation, as of September 2026, does not describe narration, voice-over, music, story writing or assembling several scenes into one video. KidsStoryteller.ai does all of that in one step.
How do I keep the same character in every scene?
Save your character once — upload an image or describe it and let the AI draw a character sheet — then attach it to your story. Every scene is generated from that reference, so each scene starts from your character's face, colors and outfit, from the first scene to the last. A story can carry up to 6 named characters. In Midjourney, reference images apply to still images; its video documentation lists them as not compatible with video.
Can I bring a character I already designed?
Yes. Upload your own original character image as the reference — including art you made in another tool — and it is reused in every scene. Uploads are screened and photos of real children are blocked; a picture uploaded straight into a story video is also checked for well-known copyrighted characters — so please use characters that are yours.
Is there a free trial?
Midjourney's documentation says there is no free trial on midjourney.com or Discord; plans start at $10/month. On KidsStoryteller.ai, creating an account is free and you can listen to voice samples before you pay; generating needs a plan, starting at $4/month.
How much does KidsStoryteller.ai cost?
Plans start at $4/month (Basic, 5,000 credits). Creator at $29/month adds unlimited Director's Cut story videos with fair-use pacing, Pro ($49) adds unlimited 720p Premiere videos, and Studio ($99) adds a larger daily allowance and characters who speak their own lines. Yearly billing gives two months free.
