It started with the idea I had. I knew it was going to be about The Riddler (one of my favorites, and a huge fan of @mattreevesLA’s and Paul Dano’s rendition of the character) so I gave ChatGPT the prompt and we went back and forth on the monologue
The problem with those images though is they’re usually pretty low-res, so to get a quality still for a 4K video, I used Pixelmator to has this magical AI upscaling feature where it preserves the quality of a picture but can blow up the resolution all the way to 4K+!
Then, the fun part. It’s got to move and feel alive! So to bring these stills to life, I used Motionleap on my iPhone, imported each image, and just drew on the parts of the image where I wanted movement! It’s that easy to bring something like a static mysterious fog to life.
Finally, put it all together with some touches in Final Cut Pro, and boom! A fun little Batman animated short. Big thank you to @angrypenguinPNG and @rileybrown_ai for their tweets that inspired this! Here’s the YouTube link for a higher quality version! piped.video/ghwbUvcWTFw
Thx KB! Companies have to figure out attribution/consent etc. but an artist’s vision can be amplified w/ these tools. You get a new set of creatives, but also have incredible existing creatives who can unlock new ideas better than anyone imagined. Supplementary not a replacement.
the reactions to this for example:
I was behind the scenes and saw how @ammaar put his heart & passion into it.
AI gives you new tools, but it's not just clicking a button - it still takes endless iteration and creativity to make this happen (similar to what artists do today!)
