Want to create your own Niu Lai AI video?
In the video below, we show you how to use Magiclight to turn Niu Lai into two completely different videos:
- A cinematic Odyssey-style AI movie trailer
- A complete AI kids’ story
Below, you can find all the prompts, character assets, images, and project resources used in the tutorial.
Watch the full video for the step-by-step workflow, then copy the resources below and try it yourself.
1. Niu Lai Cinematic Movie Trailer Prompt
We used this prompt in Magiclight Toolbox to turn Niu Lai into the hero of an epic mythology-inspired movie trailer.
Prompt
Create a 15s, 16:9 photorealistic live-action mythology trailer with monumental 70mm/IMAX scale, grounded realism, Mediterranean light, restrained colors, realistic ocean physics, minimal CGI, theatrical sound.
CHARACTER: Use the yellow cow image only as identity reference, not first frame. Keep him consistent: golden-yellow fur, dark curved horns, beige-pink muzzle, stocky humanlike body, tired half-lidded eyes, thick brows. Ancient Greek leather harness, linen waist cloth, belt and sandals. Treat him as a serious legendary warrior.
0:00–0:03: Tiny Greek ship fights huge waves between black cliffs at dawn. Lightning. Close-up: soaked cow at the bow. Whisper: “Ten years from home…”
0:03–0:06: He crosses wet black sand as a colossal storm forms. A vague giant humanoid shape appears in the clouds. Thunder. He looks up.
0:06–0:09: Torch-lit cave. Bronze sword in hand. A gigantic Cyclops eye opens behind him, reflecting his silhouette. Fast push-in. BRAAAM.
0:09–0:12: Rapid montage: huge wave behind ship; cow raises bronze shield under flaming arrows; extreme wide shot of him on a cliff above an ancient fleet.
0:12–0:15: Sunset cliff hero shot. Wind moves cloak and fur. Camera arcs to his face. “I will return.” Cut to black. Title: THE NIUDYSSEY.
Style: authentic Greek ships/architecture, spray/wind, film grain, haze, dramatic silhouettes, realistic fur/lighting. Avoid bright fantasy colors, glossy CGI, game-engine look, modern objects, cute/slapstick acting, extra text.

2. Niu Lai Kids Video Story Prompt
For the second example, we used Magiclight Kids Video to turn Niu Lai into the main character of a simple story about kindness and sharing.
Prompt
Niu Lai and the Red Umbrella
Niu Lai the cow lived in a little forest full of flowers.
One morning, it started to rain.
Niu Lai put on his yellow raincoat, opened his red umbrella, and walked to the bakery.
On the way, he saw a little rabbit hiding under a tree.
“Come with me!” said Niu Lai.
A little later, they met a tiny hedgehog standing in the rain.
“You can come too!”
Soon, one cow, one rabbit, and one hedgehog were all squeezed under the little red umbrella.
Niu Lai’s shoulder got wet, but he kept smiling.
When they reached the bakery, the baker gave them three warm buns.
Just then, the rain stopped.
A bright rainbow appeared in the sky.
The rabbit asked, “Niu Lai, aren’t you cold?”
Niu Lai took a bite of his bun and smiled.
“A little. But now nobody had to walk in the rain!”
The three friends laughed together under the rainbow.
Sometimes, sharing your umbrella can make someone’s rainy day a little brighter.
