Hypercinema: AI generative Video

  • What is the concept?
    • The theme of our video is ‘weird.’ We intended to redefine our understanding of ‘weird’ and encourage a reevaluation of how society views ‘weird things and people.’
  • How did you go about creating it?
    • For this project, we worked as a team of four, leveraging the advantages of having four members while utilizing the unique characteristics of AI-generated content. To elaborate further:
      • The project originated from Amanda’s initial idea: generating behind-the-scenes moments of famous paintings using AI.
      • Each of us selected a masterpiece we wanted to explore and created a unique behind-the-scenes scene for it.
        1. Jiyou: The Treachery of Images
        2. Ray: The Elephants, Soft Construction with Boiled Beans, The Persistence of Memory
        3. Amelia: Clown blanc au chapeau vert
        4. Amanda: The Starry Night
      • We then connected the first and last scenes of each video to harness the randomness of AI generation.
      • As a result, we were able to create a video where all four masterpieces were linked together, producing a seamless and cohesive sequence.

  • What was successful and what was unsuccessful?
    • Successful
      • Generate irregular objects like smoke
      • Natural camera pans
    • Unsuccessful
      • Move or remove text
  • How would you approach the project differently knowing what you know now?
    • No gory images are allowed
    • A generation of AI with a different kind of imagination with my expectation
    • Ai doesn’t recognize ‘text’
‘text’?

Editing Scene

They each generated audio for their footage, added it to the footage, and then merged all of their footage together, adding narration (also AI-generated) audio to create the final video.
