๐๐ป Director + Photographer @ Mermaid Toast ๐ฅ Making Movies & Teaching AI For Filmmakers ๐ Recognised by Forbes, ASC, Chapman ๐ Take my online Course Below!
To those asking, this is image to video. The image is an original I made through a variety of techniques (some hand drawings also) and used Luma to animate the image I created.
Filmmakers, Designers, Artists, Listen up!!!
People are HOOKED on Magnific AI but almost NOBODY is using it properly.
In this tutorial I'm going to teach you one simple way to turn your storyboard into cinematic images with one reference image using Magnific Style Transfer.
AI is time-consuming, but by the time I grab a coffee and come back, I have exquisite video animations for my images.
Bravo
@LumaLabsAI
this is game changing for pitching my concepts.

I am LOVING how creative I can be with what started as a simple hand drawing.

Magnific has been GAME changing!! In the following post, I'll run through various tutorials on how I use this & get the best results possible. Let's go!
AI enthusiasts and filmmakers, I'm going to talk about something important, because by my talking about, hopefully it will inspire more conversations about how we can effectively & ethically integrate AI technology into our workflows in Hollywood.
Last year, a project I had been
Yesterday, I had the honor of participating in my first panel among brilliant visionaries discussing the ethics of AI & it's use in film.
To be in conversation with such filmmakers whose work I have admired for decades was truly a privilege.
THIS is what is possible with the new "Character Reference" tool. This is incredibly exciting. Watch this space for more on this little girl's adventure coming soon...

Here's another example of an sref

found which showed a drawn painted technique, but when I ran my prompt with words "cinematic" and "hd" it gives me something entirely different with the same sref code!

First attempt using Magnific's new style transfer ๐
1) We have a realistic fairy looking unicorn girl I prompted in Midjourney, a very cinematic image.
2)What she looks like in the style of the Simpsons.
Okay
@ViggleAI
is a ridiculous amount of fun. I just replaced Michael Madsen in my fave movie scene ever with a futuristic space monkey. It's far from perfect and rather jittery, but when it comes to acting out scenes for pre-vis ... wow. Just wow. This is game changing.

@dustinhollywood
Agreed. I also LOVE how supportive and collaborative this AI community is. It's really fascinating and wonderful to see us all support each other and I think that hardcore goes back to the point you just illustrated. We've been there.
And THAT'S how I use

to change my life every single day. If you enjoyed this post, please save and follow. I have a free 16 page e-book here and an online course coming soon!! Big up to
@javilopen
for creating Magnific! xx
A little while back, I created a futuristic Ancient Egyptian and Greek world. I might revisit some of these images and continue with the storylines within it.

My Pappou (grandfather) passed away last week which inspired me to be creative with how Iโm using my midjourney images to express my emotions with a more human touch.
To date Iโve generated over 30k images, so I thought it might be interesting to print and repurpose some and

Here's an example of how comic book style with the same sref can also be applied to a live action prompt with words such as "cinematic" and "photographic" added.
Pretty neat huh!

Is anyone else addicted to their own AI songs?
I cannot stop listening to this one I made a while back, full blown dancing ensues when I listen. Can't help to feel like this is problematic.

game, so here's another example of how using the same sref code can give you both animated and live action results by adding words like "cinematic" "photograph" or "HD image" to your prompt.
