Gundam - Concept Film Trailer Growing up, Gundam wasn't just a show for me - it was a universe I lived in, dreamed of, and believed in, yet we still haven't seen it in live-action form. So, I decided to do something about it. Collaborating with fellow Al filmmakers, @Kavanthekid and @artisdead_ai we fused cutting-edge Al technology with a deep passion for storytelling to craft a groundbreaking live action concept trailer. Our aim? To honor the legacy of Gundam while pushing creative boundaries, offering fans a glimpse into a visually stunning and emotionally resonant cinematic adaptation. Tools used to create this video - RunwayML Gen2, Midjourney, Magnific, Photoshop, DaVinci, Topaz Labs Video Al, Premiere Pro, After Effect Pika, Lensgo Al and Haiper Al.

🌟 Today our feature film project I'm working on at Stiller Studios was featured by none other than the creators of the tools we're using to make the film i.e. Reallusion. The 3D animated film is created using mainly Character Creator 4, iClone 8 and AccuFace together with other tools like OptiTrack motion capture and Unreal Engine 5. Besides being responsible for R&D of the Reallusion tools in our pipeline and workflow, I was also responsible for capturing the video and audio for the interviews of my colleagues in this video. It's super fun! As mentioned in the video, the film footage is still very early WIP renders in the process but perhaps gives a little insight as to what I'm working on every day at Stiller.

Chroma 0003 - In Which the Author Records a Video at 3 in the Morning and Then Waits 57 Days to Post It. After 4 years without a date night, we finally went to see Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse at the Brentwood Rock. The visual style and storytelling were phenomenal, making it one of my favorite animated films ever. I’m so proud of the talented team who worked on this masterpiece, especially those for whom this was their first credit. Can’t wait for Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse! No spoilers, but go watch it - you won’t regret it! #spiderverse #sonypicturesimageworks #lbs034 #descript

A great insight into the technology used at the incredible Stiller Studios ! Using OptiTrack Prime cameras with the new skeleton solver and the Reallusion solution for Unreal Engine, you can drastically reduce production time in Performance capture. #motioncapture #performancecapture

Dödakalle - Art-house short film exploring character design and movement using #midjourney and #runwayapp. - For this project I created images using #midjourney with the goal of developing characters that would seamlessly integrate into a surreal art film. After numerous iterations, I achieved impressive results. The characters looked authentic and closely aligned with the aesthetic I was aiming for. Despite not being perfect, I’m satisfied with how they turned out. Following this, I used #runwayapp to animate these images, striving to emulate lifelike movement. The main challenge was to ensure the characters’ movements were realistic and undistorted, with the ultimate goal of producing a final product that would be visually appealing. - #arthousefilm #generativeart #surrealcollage #a24 #weirdcore #dreamcore #surrealart #jodorowsky

“I read somewhere that an empty room is an opportunity.” -Joy Favourite quote and scene from the 2015 Pixar classic, Inside Out. I have yet to watch the much talked about Inside Out 2, but now that I think of it, the original was much ahead of its time—tackling the subject of emotional intelligence (EQ) in a profoundly insightful way. With the sequel now out, the film has hit a staggering $1 billion at the global box office, clearly resonating with audiences around the world. The storyline of Inside Out is one that shows us that emotions are meant to be felt, not suppressed. Even the ones we perceive as "negative," serve an important purpose. This graphic from Six Seconds beautifully illustrates the layered, interconnected nature of human emotions. It's fascinating to see how different feelings can combine and coexist within a single experience. This makes it easier to identify and understand the nuances of our own emotional landscape. Can’t wait to see how the filmmakers build upon the foundation in the sequel! #InsideOut #Feelings #Emotions #EmotionalIntelligence #HumanBehaviour Pixar Animation Studios

Tales from the Tail-end of the Pipeline: A friend of mine enlisted my help with this cathartic scene in his upcoming series. He had to shoot this run and gun style, so he'd been converting the colors of the lines of the parking lot by hand (see the light green squiggles) for 6 MONTHS and had gotten about 15 seconds done! Here was the process that took 12 hrs in After Effects: - Bump contrast for easier processing - Rotoscoped the actor with rotobrush - Motion Tracked the lines, and attached that data to shape layers Tips from the tail-end: This process would have been MUCH faster (easily half the time) if the scene had been marked, and the camera stabilized. Producers: please consult post-production folks when planning a scene that will involve VFX. We will love you for it! (Bonus tip: if you have a permit, you're allowed to take the entire time you're allotted. Don't rush!)
