The evolution of AI animation ✨
You may remember this video I did almost two years ago of Hercules dancing, I’ve long since abandoned this style but with how good the new tools are I thought it would be fun to go back and see how it compares

It only seemed right to dive into the world of food next, what do you think?

Using runwayml's extend feature before and after the AI styling process - first to recover out-of-frame movement, then to create this widescreen final result. Technical breakdown in the video below ⬇️

A side by side comparison of the movement input and final output from today’s instagram post.
This one was in collaboration with the homie jboogx.creative, and it really feels like we tapped into something special.

Ok let’s talk then. As somebody that works in the AI space, I’d assume you know that the copyright rules have to do with amount of human input.

Runway.ml just dropped something very special. Generative expand. It can only do 10 second renders right now. But this is huge progress.
Watch till the end to see the before comparison.

Side by side comparison ✨
Tech stack:
• AnimateDiff in ComfyUl for core animation
• Topaz Al for upscaling
• After Effects for pre-composition
• Runway for rotoscoping
Additionally the music was made in Udio and the voiceover is from Eleven Labs

Check out this new mock AI enhanced @Nike commercial that I've been working on! I so frequently work on exclusively artistic pieces that I figured showing off some practical work would be a nice change of pace #Marketing #aigenerated #nike #Advertising

Life in a Terrarium 🌿✨
An idea I’ve had for a long time was to do a piece involving a terrarium, however something really tough in the gen world are translucent objects like glass.
As a first iteration on the idea I’m really happy with how it came out.

AI image to video workflows have gotten really good..
Working on a stop motion aesthetic music video for a song I wrote a long time ago.
What do you think?

Maybe it isn’t as exciting now. But the strides we’re making with AI animation are huge right now. Very close to production ready.

My favorite thing so far about Gen3 video2video so far is that the facial features stick really well. Better than any other gen video model out right now.
Be prepared for a whole new wave of uncanny AI avatar videos coming soon.

For this specific shot I pre composed a scene by hand, rotoscoping footage of the incredible @acro_connection (who also deserve to be credited as they are on my instagram post) and composited them with a number of assets to create the layout before rendering.

I redid the 2003 iPod commercial in animatediff last night, utilizing the qrcode controlnet and lineart I was able to add in details while mostly preserving the base of the piece. #AIart #stablediffusion #animatediff #ai

I was part of OpenAI's SORA early access team over the last few months and with its release I wanted to share some tests I did.
Key insights: Incredible fidelity in video generations + works amazing with detailed prompts.

Since last time I input controlnet into my diff workflow and with a bit of persistence was able to get some incredibly stable results. To this point I hadn’t see this level of clarity mixed with this much depth from diff. But I’m sold now. This is the future.

Runway just dropped vid2vid for gen3
First impressions: it’s cool, there are definitely some fun use cases, I hope in the future we get a deeper set of controls and the ability to tune the model.
This is a big step forward though.

We’re really proud of how this one turned out 🍜
Good Morning and Happy Monday! My good friend GerdeGotIt and I worked together to bring the best bowl of ramen to life for you all over the weekend!
We wrestled with this one a lot on everything from composition, the noodles turning into a woman, and the noodles turning into meat!
In the end, new techniques were discovered and more tools were added to the tool box.
Let me know what you all think!

The style itself may not be subject to my copyright but everything else I did would be.
Thank you for adding credit. The rest of that felt unwarranted and lacked understanding.

I all the way agree with this. It was such a special time of weird and strange creations. Luckily I still have a lot of these old collab notebooks downloaded. So one day I can go back.

An interesting newish piece of AI tech is animatediff. Gives the control of stable diffusion for text to video utilizing motion models. I’m wildly new at it but the results are super interesting. #AIArtCommuity #ai #TechNews

Animatediff + Controlnet
Utilizing motion models. There is understood movement through 16 part context increments. Difficult to tame but really interesting.

Got to be a part of this incredible event last month 🙏
At @a16z, we're big believers in the future of AI art.
We couldn't be more excited to share a recap of our first artist retreat hosted last month in NYC.
So grateful to all of the creatives and companies who spent time with us. Hear from them 👇

If I’m being real. Prompting is like a really small part of things now. Lots of other ways to guide gen. A lot of that is in pre compositing scenes. Ya know, traditional vfx. Which I also have a background in.

I feel this so hard. If we could just have a version of the sam2 demo that doesn’t cap at like 360p and 24fps I’d be so happy.

Here ya go, looping using in and out frame for kling 1.5, in every run I did she wanted to dance and sway a bit. Probably the model reading the headphones. Even with prompting it pushed against that. Pretty solid overall tho

Oh wait hold up, I’ve been looking for something like this to incorporate the water animatediff runs I’ve been doing back onto real footage with somewhat realistic transparency. This could be big. If it works out I’ll share some results back here.

Art isn’t about the struggle, attention you get, money, none of that.
It’s making stuff.
And it’s cool if you don’t think I did enough to say I created it 🫶 I know I did.

Thank you for sharing ✨
Not sure who the other person you tagged is though, they definitely were not involved in the making if this.

So you’re saying sound engineers and producers aren’t artists? Everyone plays different roles and the nuance of a mix or the equipment choice and space to record are definitely creative decisions. That’s a terrible take.
Gatekeeping art is mad weird.

Man just do the exact style from “Live forever as you are now” 😂😭 like I think the retro-futuristic AI kind of low polygon floating head approach would be so sick. Like the right level of uncanny and nostalgic.

Thanks Olivio! Backgrounds with a shallow depth of field can still be a bit tough to nail 😅 it all just kind of falls into randomness.
