The Carnival of the Ages: An AI-Generated Film Unveiling a Cinematic Odyssey Through Time and Space!
VISUALS:
I used DALL_E + Midjourney generations as style reference / to make my shotlist for the scenes, I then put them into Runway Gen2 with slightly altered text prompts to generate the video clips you see in this video.
SOUND- I used Elevenlabs to train a voice for the narration and ChatGPT to help reduce my idea into a shorter narration.
Im thrilled to share with you a film that I’ve created using cutting-edge AI tools that are revolutionizing the video-making process. Yes, you read that right – AI-generated videos are here, and they’re absolutely mind-blowing!
As a filmmaker with 15+ years of experience, I’ve never been more excited to be part of such a pivotal moment in the industry, where creativity evolves like never before, and we’re given a glimpse into the future possibilities of content creation and simulated realities!
Growing up, The Twilight Zone was a massive inspiration, so I used ElevenLabs to train the AI narration on Westbrook Van Voorhis, who narrated the pilot episode of the series. To create the visuals, I generated reference images using OpenAI #dalle2 and Midjourney, built my shots, and then put them into Runway #runwaygen2 to create the videos.
As we venture into these uncharted territories, it’s crucial that we join forces, explore these tools together, and push the boundaries of what’s possible! I’m excited to announce that. I will be launching an AI film club, bringing together creatives from around the world to foster new talent and develop groundbreaking filmmaking and storytelling.
So, fellow pioneers of the digital frontier, let’s embrace these innovations and embark on a collective journey to redefine creativity and reshape the future of storytelling!
