Its fantastic whatis possible with AI. I just had a try with gen 3 with a smal some seconds video, its nce, but after first try i was pleased to pay monthly for next try. It could beinterestimng to buy the program and have no limits afterwards.but it seems only abonnement is possible. didyou create your video for free or with monthly abonnement.?
@cosyla1928 this was part of a competition where they gave 300,000 credits but only for 48 hours so I used 37,000 credits to create this, to give you an idea of how much generation/ credits gets consumed for 4 minutes worth of footage.
@bonsai-effect 😂 I took a meow and modified it, a la chewbacca calling his pet cat lol Gotta keep the audience on their toes 🙃 going to check out your submission now! 🫶🏻
@katetreick1646 thank you 🥰 I hope they are! Would love to see what you create if you'd like to join me and share in my Facebook group, Spin, Dye, and Create with Alanna Wilcox 😊
I love your cat videos. We also have 2 cats, Mr Mao and Miss Ziggy, but the problem is, if I made videos about them, the fame would go to their head and they would be insufferable hahaha.
The beauty of making art is that it really doesn't matter what other people think ;) <3 You do you and the things that set your heart on fire, people are often jealous when others find their passion and they haven't found theirs yet.
Hello from the Artist Community of Carrizozo New Mexico USA. I met you online during your lecture to the Arizona Spinners and Weavers Guide. I watched part one yesterday. Thanks! Have a pleasant and creative weekend. 🐑🐑🐑
I’m sure you can buy electric cords that have an in line on/off switch (kind of like for a bedside lamp, but with a plug for each end). That would make the nano spinner a bit more user friendly …
Hi, I'm new to felting so just starting out, I came across this video and boy am I glad I did. Thank you so much for sharing this or I would of been doing it wrong. Definitely got yourself a new sub from the UK 😊
Okay, that quilt is beautiful!! I had a similar idea! Also, on the scraps I try to keep my wool separated from everything else kinda like you do with yours. And the wool, along with other safe and natural fibers, I could possibly use for the birds. The rest I save until I come up with an idea for a project. But most often I will take the different wools that I have and incorporate it within itself for a project. I also use a lot of different silks and other fibers. This carder is excellent though. As I love combining different materials, colors, etc.
In that picture, the S is on the right, not the left. Somehow you teachers seem to be a little confused, tho,' I think I understood S vs Z twist from you.
the fibers in a singles will slant in the direction of the letters, but when it's plied, the space between the singles will slant in the direction that the twist was put in. The Z singles need S twist to ply them together, that's why it's S plied twist on the left with z spun singles but S twist singles on the right with Z ply twist. Hope that makes sense!
Of course! Working on it 😁 I might have 2 versions ... but if you subscribe to the channel I think you'll get notifications when new videos are posted (at least that's what all the RU-vidrs who look like they know what they're doing say to do 😂)
GREETINGS FROM india. This has been wonderful. I have come to work with fabric pretty late in my life...loving it and your video has been most inspiring...helping to point me in directions and answering a few silent questions I have had...so thank you... Thanks for the inspiration and helping me on , on my creative journey. Wishing you well.
<3 <3 <3 Much love and thank you for the kind words! It's the stuff the fuels me when I feel like giving up and there are just frogs dancing in my dreams and nightmares lol
It's ok to follow patterns to learn new techniques. We can then adapt or transform what we learn to create our own pieces, or use our newly acquired skills as a stepping stone to ignite our passion or create new and completely different projects that would/could include some of these new techniques. There are no limits in creativity. As I said when I learned quilting: I will have to come back many lifetimes to explore the infinite potential of quilting art 😊
Most welcome and good luck! You can always try treading and then stopping your feet to use the stored twist to work with if doing it at the same time is too hard😁
