The marketing department would sell it as “an experiencing like the first ever computer games ever made” and it would totally work on me lol

Also happy #transdayofvisibility! We worked with Mermaids UK and @iamreeder.bsky.social to make a video showing how a supportive community can make a difference to trans youth.

Our company is called Chicken Fruit and it’s sort of sweet when spam email says “hello chicken!”

Seeing the trailer for the first time I remember thinking “this is just 2 hours of lions walking forward”

So many of them propose things like “I get it to come up with ideas!” Or “I make backgrounds” Or “I use it to animate characters” and every time I’m like… it sounds like you don’t actually enjoy making things.

Why would I ever computer out all the fun bits???

Saw an early contender for the LinkedIn hall of fame today where someone was pondering the question of why AI couldn’t combat the LA wildfires with robot firefighters, posted with several AI generated videos of LA on fire for “demonstration purposes”

Where in your 70s class on AI did it cover the illegal scraping of all publicly available (copyrighted) data from social media to put into an aggregate machine that hallucinates and costs gallons of water per minute to cool the servers?
Things might have altered a tad in 40 years.

Elements from our first project using Forger + the final image 🍂

We sculpted these, painted over them in Procreate, and streamed the whole process on Twitch.

Two firsts (the sculpting and the streaming) and one Very Not First (painstakingly painting over 3D objects) 😅

Always funny to me how feral people get for the car parking spaces closest to the entrance. The time they took scrapping they could have parked a few meters away and walked!

Sorry but if I found out someone id been emailing was using chatGPT or having an AI re-word their emails to be a different tone like all the Apple ads want, I’d be so… sad?? You couldn’t talk to me with your own words? You think I’d care that your email sounded more professional?? Who are you???

One thing I miss about being a regular freelance motion designer is watching TV and going “I did that!”. The only thing I ever see on TV still that I made was all the !mpossible graphics.

Funny how a lot of the slick motion films for these companies don’t even appear to use any GenAI in the production or final output? Almost like no AI startups are production ready??
December 17, 2024 at 12:40 PM
So interesting seeing motion design studios doing promo films for GenAI companies. Like, whose industry do you think these companies are coming for??
