The Episodic

Developed a collection of characters for a project, this is the last one that was created.

This is a character design for a current project that used Stable Diffusion to generate the primary image and then @Pika_Labs to create motion

The Cask of Amontillado is a classic cryptic tale by Edgar Allen Poe, arguably a foundation stone of suspense & mystery writing from the 19th century https://www.audible.com/pd/Relic-Audiobook/B0BZJZYWSZ I perform this piece with fully voiced characters along with soundscaping in the audio play version —- This imagery was created using Stable Diffusion then set into motion with @Pika_Labs

"Relic: The Element" is an audiobook exclusive that was released with 3 other stories from authors you know, including Edgar Allen Poe, Frank Belknap Long and HP Lovecraft https://www.audible.com/pd/Relic-Audiobook/B0BZJZYWSZ

Been playing around with ControlNet Diffusion Illusion in Stable Diffusion and @Pika_Labs lately - figured to toss this up here Wrote the music to coincide with the video transitions

This case study examines how I engaged the developments in artificial intelligence over the last year. All motion was created via @Pika_Labs You can learn more about how I approach content development and marketing in my newest book called "How to Create a Small Business Content Development Strategy in 10 Steps" on Amazon.

Just jamming on the software and seeing if I can get it to spit out interesting things

Made this with Stable Diffusion and Deforum in Diffusion Bee Alittle generative art texture for this Sunday afternoon

This sleepy head came to Chicago representing Asian loveliness for the International Dress and Costume Exhibit amazon.com/dp/B08JCPFJ54 She stayed awake for the camera to capture her ornate attire

This piece was created in coordination with an article for @BitcoinMagazine Read the article here: https://bitcoinmagazine.com/markets/introducing-rfk-jr-to-bitcoins-nashian-orientation Motion images created using @Pika_Labs Many of the images used to create the motion were generated via artificial intelligence models, particularly Stable Diffusion, the music was created with the Meta Audiocraft model.

Made this with @openbrushapp in the @MetaQuestVR - pretty basic and rough, admittedly Have moved on to the crystal formations after this which I intend to get back to for export tests next using @Sketchfab

Chicago World’s Fair panorama simulation synthesized with @Stability_AI’s Stable Fusion then loaded into @GravitySketchYouTube on @MetaQuestVR Http://Chicago1893.com Film: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08JCPFJ54 Book: https://amazon.com/dp/1082413585 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chicago.1893 Twitter: https://twitter.com/Chicago_1893 Twitter Community: https://twitter.com/i/communities/1500255173427572738 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chicago.1893

This required modeling the djembe inside of @secondlife with very rudimentary texturing. Next I worked a simple script to trigger an animation and clip of audio.

This was created with @Stability_AI’s Stable Diffusion model and @GravitySketchYouTube For more on Chicago 1893: http://chicago1893.com Film Shortened link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08JCPFJ54 Book: https://amazon.com/dp/1082413585 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chicago.1893 Twitter: https://twitter.com/Chicago_1893 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chicago.1893

Have you used @openbrushapp to create 3D assets? I might make a bunch of pieces and create a scene in @BlenderOfficial at some point …we’ll see
