Early testing on real projects is going well.
We got a beat!

Beta will open soon.

While we’re listening to @sea3dformat on stage, here’s another little piece of conference magic. 👀✨

@JulieMarting from @HerveStudio showed us the magical speaker badge!

And it’s only half the story… put it next to another speaker badge and the two actually interact. 🤯

What an epic little detail for the conference. 💙

More from Paris soon! 🇫🇷

Love the @threejsconf speaker badge? But you don’t have one because you’re not a speaker?
Tiny badge won’t let you down! (for a matter of fact it is actually quite sticky)

[Vincent Jouty @FYI_Im_Vince]

I’ve started beta-testing @lecrayon_ai here at @HerveStudio
Seing the team using it feel so cool!
More about this project soon. I will be looking for testers 👀👀

(No url because onboarding is not ready for the real world yet 🫣)

SOUND ON

I am crafting a small gl experience inspired by the @threejsconf goodies and the @rbriaux badge.

Some progress on the @threejsconf badge

@BenjaminMjouer Pas encore mais on y travaille :)

[Le Crayon @lecrayon_ai]

Inpainting, I 'm going to learn Inpainting?

David (@makio64) : "Any very simple idea we could make the speaker badge for @threejsconf a bit more special?"
Us: "Sure. Simple."
David : "..."
Us: "Oh. You meant simple simple."

XAI direct route implemented :)
To be expected :
⚡ Faster generations: images now come straight from xAI, no middleman
💸 Cheaper edits: image editing drops ~10%, and the new Grok Imagine Quality model unlocks
🔑 Bring your own xAI key or use ours; pay provider price.

[Vincent Jouty @FYI_Im_Vince]

Waiting for generations is just a part of the job.
Lecrayon will have 4 embedded tools to sort, rate, compose a set, and compare, in addition to the collaborative features.
Here is an example using the Yes-or-nah feature (UI not refined yet).
Follow @lecrayon_ai to stay tuned :)

[Vincent Jouty @FYI_Im_Vince]

BTW @lecrayon_ai will have its mini map, no more getting lost on the canvas.
Aiming for public beta this fall.
There, I said it.

[Le Crayon @lecrayon_ai]

Our in-house router is almost ready!
We are developing our own api to easily implement new models in the future. with a direct route + Fal as a backup for improved uptime.

The best part -> you will be able to either bring your own key or use ours for a fixed and honest fee.

Two years ago, at @HerveStudio, we made the innocent choice to have soft-bodied collided elements in our branding.
They express the notion of controlled metamorphosis, creativity under client constraint.

Cool choice, but not very practical in real life to create this kind of effect.
So a month ago, we made a web tool to create these effects on the fly (Yes, AI blah blah blah).

As it is still a simulation, it does not work all the time, and specific animations still require specific work with After Effects (with the help of Newton), and sometimes we even have to fire our 3D software.

But for a quick post, we are finally able to express ourselves with our own tone.

[Le Crayon @lecrayon_ai]

Is this the real life?
