Enjoyed learning with new tools while creating official music video for the first single “Začátek Konce Rtu” of the upcoming album by Moody Allen.
Used tools like Midjourney to get the input images and runwayapp Gen-2 to generate the videos. A bit of Photoshop here and there and then mostly After Effects for post-production.
The video was finished on October 29th.
Took 846 prompts in Midjourney - that’s almost 3300 images to go through the selective process.
Picked 129 of them, and those went through Gen-2.
There I generated precisely 1129 videos. Each generation was 4s long at the time.
That’s 4 516 seconds (1hour 15minutes) of video material. That was cut down to the best parts which made it to the final video - barely 5 minutes of length.
One would say “oh it’s ai generated, that’s too easy, no work there for whoever made this” .. well, I thought the same at the beginning. Little did I know that I will end up spending weekends, evenings and nights for 2 months working on this.
It was exciting tho. Experimenting with new technologies super early thought me a lot. Outcome was appreciated by the audience and that’s what matters the most. Even the local news/blogs wrote articles about it
