I love your channel it's nice to keep up with these innovations especially coming from a fellow film maker like you (although I never made a full film, but I took classes and have a passion for media editinge@@HaydnRushworth-Filmmaker
I have been using and combining these tools this past week and AI video is starting to look promising. In 3 to 6 months, I believe we will have more dynamic camera controls and multiple characters on screen and interacting seamlessly) I use face swap video to fix charcater inconsistencies, mid journey to create multiple shots of different angles etc...
Development really is moving really fast, but I suspect the best way forward for storytellers will be to create animated stories using AI tools before attempting photorealistic “cinematic” versions. Animation is less demanding and more forgiving, and if you start with a great story, then really create brilliant audio results, you can do a huge amount yourself with animated AI results.
@@HaydnRushworth-Filmmaker hey I really appreciate the input! That makes perfect sense! I'm thinking startjng out with a complete story board. Then make an animated version using the same sound design that will be used in the final "photorealistic" version. I literally wrote an entire script for my film, which took me about 3/4 months of back and fourth, now I'm wondering where I can connect with the AI film community, if there is one (most people automatically count AI out of the equation, without looking at the potential or other qualities)
Whenever I watch your channel and see that you, like me, are also struggling with the big and hard edges that AI tools and technology still have for those who want to create intentional content using them, I realize how, despite being "miraculous", this market is still very immature. I see basic tools missing from all products and a lot of room for important controls to be implemented yet. There is simply a lot missing, even though we can already do a lot... it would be nice to be able to list this and make it public in some way so that companies can address these demands...
🫡😁 Woahhhhh, you and I are on the same page. I’m working on that very thing right now… a perpetual shopping list of features and tools that narrative filmmakers will need from AI tools in order for them to become viable, professional production tools. I’m going to host the list on my website (which I’m completely revamping) and openly seek additional list items from guys like yourself in the community so that the list can become a central wish list for the narrative filmmaker community as a whole. I’m increasingly having conversations with senior people from AI companies, so the good news is that it will be easy to get the list in front of the right people. The other bit of good news is that these guys are not just open to suggestions and requests, many of them are actively seeking them 😁😁😁 Watch this space… video on the way.
This looks promising. I've got a script and voice track and want the mars attacks character as the lead. Wonder if this thing could lip-synch a screaming skull mars attacks type alien?
Hahahah, I love the vision. I think you're right about the challenges of lip syncing an alien character. I'd suggest the more human-like the central face is, the more likely it is that your chosen lip sync tool will be able to handle it.
Absolutely. A solid pool of highly skilled tech folk who, ironically, have been recently made redundant because of AI, means there’s a bucketload of skilled professionals working in these tools 😁😁😁
If I’m totally honest, at this stage it’s hard to tell. As well as the obvious quality, accuracy and overall believability, there’s a really important question of workflow speed and integration to take into account. At this stage I’d probably lean towards Runway for workflow efficiency (it’s all done in the same tool), but if I was saving money, I’d experiment with Kling and Luma and then use SyncLabs.
I just watched a Knight Rider (part 1) episode. Great work, and yes, it looks like a mixture of tools at work. It goes to show how engaging storytelling bypasses entry-level VFX and AI. Great work there.
