Grok's image editor is unbelievably powerful. It just gets what I want, saving me tons of time. That combined with the video creator for angles is fantastic.

@beginnersblog1 Most AI films I see online suffer from bad framing. Everything is centered, eye level, uninteresting. Lots of broken 180 rules too, and poor movement continuity from shot to shot. Oh, and a cut every 2-3 seconds, if not less. But it can all be learned, just takes time.

[Allen @allendpresents]

Grok's agent thing is pretty good, though again, the limits are annoying. Only a dozen or so image edits before hitting a "cooldown" period. Beh. The video remains solid, though, especially for camera angle prompting from one image. These things are getting better and better.

@icreatelife I made this claymation B-movie style horror trailer a few weeks ago, my first AI film. Enjoy! https://t.co/UitL9RDPtQ

@RoyPrice Imagine how much more he could have written if he hadn't been such an avid gamer.

After some trial and error, I was able to get a video model to give me a 360 view of a location from one image! Veo is the winner, though it took a detailed prompt and a few tries. I then chopped the video up by frames and had Photoshop stitch together a panorama. Blamo!

[Allen @allendpresents]

Am currently trying to solve the "location inconsistency from shot to shot" problem in AI video creation by uploading an image of a location from a central POV, describing the area in detail, and asking a video AI to do a 360. You'd think this would work, but nope.

@shishirai_ I love Nano Banana 2 for image generation but its not copyright free, and I believe Google's videos have a watermark on them, no?

@madgreek65 Hey at least you have followers in the quadruple digits on here, a decent Youtube following, and actually get responses whenever you post something. You're more successful than most.

Thinking about what to do next after I finish my short "Quack" (coming soon!). I've always been curious about song writing and may try creating a musical type song and animating it, and may even sing it if I can hit the notes. Never done anything like it before. Might be fun.

@thefinnmckenty Just throw 'em one of these.

[Allen @allendpresents]

Currently working on (or trying to find) a good ComfyUI workflow for Ideogram4 compatible with Runninghub that lets you use the complex framing its capable of in the editing of an already existing image. It would open up the ability for detailed image inpainting/outpainting.

@henrydaubrez This isn't new or exclusive to AI filmmakers. "Producers" have been advertising a form of the "unpaid partner" position for decades. Many of the jobs I applied to on https://t.co/SefzcHcNS3 when I first moved to LA in the mid 2000s used similar language. It's just Hollywood.

Latest short. Jeff and Kirk try to go viral by engaging in hand to hand combat, with explosive results. https://t.co/kBGCK9I4Eg

[Allen @allendpresents]

Ideogram4 is a weird beast. It doesn't take standard prompts, it uses strange code-based language to generate images, which are complicated but can be tweaked to your heart's content. The images are very distinct though. It's promising, and heck, open source, so yeahh!!

@RoyPrice Writer Duet has been my go to for over a decade now. Was lucky enough to get a lifetime subscription to it when they were still offering it.

[Allen @allendpresents]

@CharaspowerAI It's not bad but seems to be a bit finnicky when it comes to prompting. You gotta do it just right, at least when it comes to animation.

[Allen @allendpresents]

@AIandDesign KAW KAW!

[Allen @allendpresents]

@MsSevier_ That's still a fraction of what most films cost, even low budget. You might be able to make a feature that's mostly watchable for less than $5,000 if you play your cards right. Definitely an animated film.

[Allen @allendpresents]

@BegTheGhost It's an indie film with an established audience, it was bound to make money regardless of its quality. Even Five Nights at Freddy's did extremely well. It's a tried and true Hollywood formula, nothing remarkable save the director's age.
