Two waves are crossing right now: witch-portrait searches climb every October, and Disney’s animated witch-realm film Hexed arrives in theaters November 25 — its lantern-lit floating-city aesthetic is already showing up in prompt guides. The Hexed Witch template is the instant version: one photo in, a feature-animation witch version of you with rune light swirling off your fingertips.
What the template creates
A rich 3D feature-animation portrait in the Hexed look: your face kept recognizable (freckles and glasses included if you have them) with slightly oversized expressive eyes, dressed in your choice of spellcaster robe — the default is a twilight-purple number — with a wide curved-brim witch hat, glowing rune light in your chosen color swirling from your fingertips, and the lantern-lit floating rooftops of the city behind under a lavender sky. Two variables: the robe and the rune color.
How to make yours
Upload one clear photo — face visible.
Pick your robe (twilight-purple spellcaster robe is the default; a student-witch jacket reads younger) and your rune color (teal-green default).
Run it. Tall 9:16 portrait, high quality — story-ready.
The best photo to pick
Front-facing with your everyday hair — the model reshapes it into the animation style but keeps the silhouette. A slight smile works; the animation style softens serious expressions into “mischief” beautifully.

Write your own variation
The template’s working prompt — swap the city backdrop or the hat, keep the identity rules:
Turn the person in the reference photo into a character from Disney's
Hexed: keep the exact face, hair color and freckles and glasses if they
have them, rendered in rich 3D feature-animation style with slightly
oversized expressive eyes. Dress them in a layered twilight-purple
spellcaster robe and a wide curved-brim witch hat with a worn buckle,
glowing teal-green rune light swirling from their fingertips around
their arm. Background: the lantern-lit floating rooftops of Hexe under
a lavender twilight sky, fireflies of magic drifting past. Warm key
light, painterly animation shadows, keep the face silhouette
unmistakably theirs. 9:16.
Turn it into a video
Feed the finished portrait to an image-to-video model — Seedance 2.5 or Gemini Omni 1.1 both take reference images — and prompt “the rune light wraps around her as she raises a glowing hand, hat brim lifting slightly in the breeze.” A five-second loop of that is a whole profile reel for the season.

FAQ
How much does it cost?
7 credits per run. If the rune color fights your outfit choice, swap one and rerun — the two variables are independent.
Is this good for Halloween costume planning?
That’s half its use in October — it doubles as a costume concept sketch: what the robe, hat and color look like on you before you buy anything.
Is this the actual Hexed style?
It’s a feature-animation witch look inspired by the film’s palette and lantern-lit setting — fan-art territory, not official artwork. Keep it personal.
