7:35 which is the live
7:37 [Music]
7:44 stream and today I think I think what
7:46 I'm GNA work on
7:49 is I put out a video over the weekend so
7:51 last night while I was watching
7:54 the the fruitball game the uh Detroit
7:58 Lions game which is actually a really
8:00 good game I don't you know what I
8:03 realized about sports
8:07 is I don't give too much of a [ __ ] about
8:10 it but but it's something to pass the
8:13 time that's got you know some level of
8:16 drama to keep me a little bit
8:19 engaged like like I watched the uh the
8:22 Nascar championship weekend so I watch
8:24 the truck championship and then the
8:26 infinity championship and then the and
8:28 then the Cup
8:31 Championship and they were
8:37 fine I don't like Phoenix as a race
8:39 track so but
8:42 [Music]
8:43 whatever um and then I watched the
8:46 football game but while I was watching
8:47 the football game I made a cool video I
8:50 made a video that that was inspired by
8:54 an
8:56 old a film that was made in I think in
8:59 the late late 80s um called Co scoty by
9:02 Jeffrey Regio and it had
9:05 um Philip Glass did the the score for
9:16 [Music]
9:20 it I was sort of inspired by Kelly Bosch
9:23 who puts out she seems to put out a
9:26 video a night and I was like well she
9:28 just kind of does it sitting on her C
9:30 just is what she
9:33 [Music]

17:02 okay so here's what we're going to
17:07 do let me show
17:10 you what's the best way to do this I
17:12 think the best way to do this is to go
17:14 over
17:16 here uh let me go find it
17:20 first
17:22 yes so we'll go full screen with that
17:25 we're going to stop sharing here
17:30 we're going to start sharing we're going
17:32 to share a
17:33 tab and it's going to be that and now
17:36 you'll be able to hear
17:39 audio
17:42 okay
17:49 so all right so over the
17:52 weekend retractable toes those were
17:55 totally retractable toes weren't they
17:57 all right here let me let me hide this
17:59 thing with
18:00 that
18:03 lovely blackbox for Tik Tock getting
18:06 there I'm figuring it out I'm figuring
18:09 it
18:10 out oh I need to get rid of all this
18:14 stuff do I have to be showing this thing
18:18 share this tab and said stop
18:24 sharing Oh Lordy always show the
18:27 bookmark bar no that helps view always
18:31 show full
18:33 URLs always show the Google Lens
18:41 shortcut all right well whatever I guess
18:43 that's as good as it gets okay all right
18:45 so what I'm about to show you here is
18:48 the uh the thing I did over the weekend
18:50 so this
18:51 was this was done
18:54 in chat
18:57 GPT and in
19:03 um Luma Labs Dreamscape for the video
19:07 and then the audio was written in sunno
19:09 all
19:14 right here we go
19:18 [Music]
19:47 you
19:51 [Music]
20:20 nice right
20:22 so so that was cool um all right so let
20:27 me go unshare this
20:32 Tab and share
20:35 everything why do I have to switch
20:37 between this because Google decided that
20:40 you can't share any audio if you're
20:42 sharing your whole screen because I
20:44 think probably they're fighting with
20:48 Apple is is my guess okay
20:53 um okay so let
20:56 me is this it here oh Guard
21:10 art
21:18 no okay so here's where I did it
21:31 what's this
21:35 that yeah so okay
21:39 so I'm trying to think where to where to
21:42 begin to
21:46 [Music]
21:57 to all right let me take a look at
21:59 something
22:01 [Music]
22:15 here no he has not dragged any
22:19 pixels I don't know what pixel dragging
22:22 means there
22:24 [Music]
22:27 John he ain't that smart no we've
22:30 established that if your question is
22:33 what are all
22:34 qualifications I have
22:36 [Music]
22:37 [Laughter]
22:41 none but what I will what I will show
22:43 you I don't if if what you're looking
22:46 for is did I go out and photograph those
22:49 things and put together a video of that
22:52 no I
22:54 didn't but what I did
22:57 do was I came
23:01 [Music]
23:04 into it's the AI version of knuckle
23:09 [Music]
23:16 drag um all right whatever okay so let's
23:20 let's go back to to this so so here's
23:22 what I did let me let me move that up
23:26 there for the people on Tik Tok so you
23:28 can see a little bit of what I'm doing
23:29 up here if you want to see this better
23:31 on Tik Tok you can flip over if you
23:33 click on my name up in the corner there
23:36 and click on Youtube it'll take you to
23:38 the AI learning lab Channel um okay so
23:42 in the late 80s um Jeffrey Reggio and
23:46 Philip Glass put together this film
23:47 called Coan scatti and Coan Scotti was a
23:52 Native American term I think for life
23:54 out of
23:55 balance and I thought it was a quite
23:58 remarkable film and it's it's always
23:59 kind of stuck with me and one of the
24:02 things that it did was it just cut from
24:04 all these sort of either time lapse or
24:06 slow motion um shots of cities and and
24:11 you know sort of cities encroaching on
24:13 nature and nature doing its thing and
24:16 and it just had this beautiful
24:17 minimalist minimalist
24:19 thing and so I thought you know one of
24:22 the nice things to do in editing is is
24:27 is sort of repeat a camera shot so
24:30 repeat a push in or repeat a repeat a
24:32 pull out and so I thought could we do
24:35 that so in my in my
24:40 uh in my quest to no longer use my
24:44 brain um rather than think about like
24:47 what were all the shots I need I just
24:49 said give me 20 epic landscape prompts
24:52 and describe them as if they were anel
24:54 Adams or George O Keef black and white
24:55 photos without mentioning their names um
24:59 use as much detail as
25:01 possible um with the prompt um include
25:05 film type dark room techniques to
25:06 capture their style so so this was I did
25:09 this inside of a a a
25:13 uh a chat gbt thing I did where I had it
25:16 design mid Journey prompts so this this
25:19 chat already has a mid Journey prompt
25:21 technique in it and so it just generated
25:25 a whole pile of prompts
25:28 of you know photograph of a densed
25:31 forest ancient redwoods their trunks
25:32 stretching up upward beyond the frame
25:34 the sunlight filtering through the thin
25:37 faint beams captured in a medium format
25:39 film right so I just did a whole bunch
25:41 of these then I went over
25:43 to Mid journey and I literally just
25:47 copied and pasted so to John's point no
25:49 I didn't do any pixel pushing I did I
25:53 did copy and paste prompting and in came
25:55 the images and so I just went through
25:59 here and I found images that I thought
26:01 like this one I thought that would
26:02 probably animate pretty well it's it's
26:05 kind of interesting
26:07 visually and so I just took I think I
26:10 took all 20 of those prompts from chat
26:13 GPT dumped them into mid
26:16 journey and like some of them came came
26:18 out in color which I didn't want and I
26:20 wasn't wild about these but this one was
26:23 fine and then these were cool this one
26:25 it put a it put a person in
26:28 this one is Big redwoods but they're in
26:31 color and I just wanted black and white
26:33 and again my goal here wasn't wasn't to
26:36 make Pixel Perfect art my goal here was
26:41 to
26:44 um to just have some interesting images
26:48 that I could then animate right and so I
26:50 just went through here and I just
26:51 downloaded a bunch of
26:57 these These are pretty cool this one I
26:59 thought was really beautiful it's got a
27:01 little color on
27:04 [Music]
27:11 [Music]
27:13 it
27:15 um and like this one was a beautiful
27:17 like that's very anel
27:19 Adams
27:21 right so then I went over to Luma
27:26 labs and I just copied and pasted all
27:29 these things in
27:31 there and then I just you know Wind
27:33 Blows
27:34 dramatically um in slow motion as the
27:37 camera pulls
27:39 out so I just made
27:44 individual little videos of each of the
27:48 shots and again I wasn't I wasn't doing
27:51 anything here like I didn't really give
27:53 too much of a [ __ ] like if it was really
27:56 bad like
28:00 like that rotation is too fast and all
28:02 of a sudden the colors
28:04 turn um it like adds color it goes from
28:08 black and white to sort of in color so
28:11 like that was shitty so then I redid
28:14 that one with just a different prompt to
28:16 make the water in slow
28:21 motion and then with each of these just
28:23 sort of pulled them
28:26 out so then I had
28:29 you know some amount of
28:31 shots right I was like oh God now I got
28:34 to edit them so I went over to I oh
28:37 before I went to iMovie I thought I've
28:38 gota I've gotta come up with some um
28:42 songs or a
28:45 song and
28:51 so oh let
28:53 me let me share this hang on a
28:57 sec cuz would be cool to hear these
29:00 sunno
29:04 [Music]
29:06 things which one's that that's on
29:08 YouTube uh pop up that comment on
29:10 YouTube I'll look at it
29:13 [Music]
29:17 again the movie is so good thank you
29:20 Cosmic lover all right um let me cover
29:23 that up for the Tik Tok folks all right
29:25 so let's I've got these up yeah so so
29:28 here were the so let's see The
29:30 Melancholy so what I wanted was I wanted
29:33 something Philip glassy with a you can't
29:37 say Philip Glass but one thing one thing
29:39 I found out about sunno is that you
29:41 can't you can't give it artist names but
29:44 you can give it album names so so if you
29:47 want something like American Idiot um
29:51 you know sort of you know um driving
29:54 rock or driving Punk or whatever Green
29:57 Day is you can say you can say that but
29:59 you can't say Green Day um so that's
30:01 interesting but I just did Melancholy
30:03 piano solo with weary strings that evoke
30:06 emotions of watching vast Landscapes
30:09 right so I just did kind of a dreary a
30:11 dreary prompt
30:13 [Music]
30:31 wa
30:34 [Music]
31:06 somebody these are
31:11 [Music]
31:24 [Music]
31:53 the other thing the other thing I that
31:55 that I like about this approach is
31:59 like you could just keep making raw
32:02 assets and just keep making raw assets
32:04 it like the the job becomes more about
32:08 curation than
32:12 creation so like I just made a ship pile
32:15 of
32:16 these one of them down here this one is
32:19 one minute long and so this is the one I
32:21 ended up using so there were plenty up
32:23 here that that I could use but this one
32:25 kind of ended
32:29 [Music]
33:21 so then I just went over into iMovie and
33:25 so and this is I don't really know
33:26 iMovie at all so so I basically did a
33:29 fade up from black and then threw in a
33:31 title and like here's all the here's all
33:34 the movies I imported here's the song I
33:35 imported and I literally just put put
33:38 them in at their default times I didn't
33:40 time it to the music at all I just did
33:42 cross fades in between all the things
33:44 and then I think for the last thing I
33:45 slowed it down and Faded it out right so
33:49 that at the
33:54 end oh wait you're not looking at this
33:56 hang on God damn it
33:59 this this screen sharing nonsense is
34:08 nonsense all right anyway so this is
34:11 what I was talking about before so I'm
34:13 mean iMovie right now so I just dragged
34:15 all the Clips in here here's the song
34:17 Here's all the individual little Clips
34:20 so I literally just dragged them down in
34:22 the timeline threw cross Fades between
34:24 them went over to titles found a title
34:27 that I like dragged that on there for
34:29 you know just longer than its Default
34:32 Time faded up from black cross faded in
34:36 between and just you know had enough had
34:39 enough content that it
34:42 matched the song Perfectly
34:48 [Music]
35:01 right so that's pretty
35:04 pretty
35:06 um
35:08 yeah now could you hear
35:12 that gosh that seemed like more than a
35:15 minute yeah well it's it's a long
35:18 depressing
35:19 [Laughter]
35:23 song It's a Long depressing movie can
35:26 you hear when I play an iMovie can you
35:28 can you hear
35:35 [Music]
35:39 this let's see
35:45 [Music]
36:00 that's a good idea Danielle
36:02 [Music]
36:45 all right so there's that now
36:54 um Okay so
36:58 then
36:59 today what I wanted to do all right
37:03 so so that was just sort of a
37:06 spontaneous a
37:07 spontaneous put something out in the
37:10 world kind of thing I just wanted to do
37:12 something and then
37:15 today I wanted to really take it further
37:17 and I I discovered a couple of of fun
37:19 things um
37:22 about using canvas um which I liked so
37:27 so let me just walk you through so so
37:28 let me just pause for a second anyone
37:30 have any questions or thoughts M Chester
37:33 holy moly Kyle beautiful Winston Hardy
37:35 likes it nice thank you anybody have any
37:38 questions I love the music it's putting
37:39 me to sleep it's very much put me to
37:41 sleep
37:41 [Laughter]
37:54 music okay all right so
37:59 so in Luma Labs they've got this cool
38:01 new
38:02 thing where they've got camera move so
38:06 if if in your prompt so I can I can
38:08 upload an image here so let's go to do I
38:12 have my downloads yeah so there's an
38:15 image so if I bring that image
38:17 in you know I can say um
38:21 man wrinkles his face and then I say as
38:27 camera and the mini you type in camera
38:29 it gives you all these camera
38:33 moves um so we could
38:36 say we'll pull out as he wrinkles his
38:42 face and so I
38:46 wanted I wanted chat GPT to write
38:49 prompts that that knew all those camera
38:52 moves um and I wanted the specific
38:54 camera moves for for dream machine for
38:57 Luma abbs
39:00 um but you can't if I type in
39:04 camera there's no way you can copy and
39:06 paste these they they don't have it so
39:08 you can copy and paste them so I could
39:09 have typed them but I'm
39:12 lazy so what I did was I screenshotted
39:14 them and then I uploaded them to to chat
39:18 GPT and I said these are camera moves
39:20 please list them out so it wrote them
39:22 all out so now it knows them right so
39:24 that's that's what all these are um
39:27 which kind of dug
39:29 that and then I said now do you know
39:32 about the film Co a scoty and it says
39:34 yes here's Co a scoty and did I spell it
39:36 right no I put a u in it whatever um but
39:40 Jeffrey resio mic music by Philip Glass
39:42 the title is from the Hy language
39:44 meaning life out of
39:46 balance um so it's it's essentially a
39:49 plotless dialogue free relying instead
39:51 on visuals and music to convey the
39:53 themes and it it shows life out of
39:55 balance and then there were follow-up
39:56 films of pazi
39:58 and nakaki I think it's called um were
40:02 the were the
40:03 follow-ups um and then I
40:05 said can you give me a shot of locations
40:08 in that film and the kinds of shots used
40:12 and so it it it knows all the shots in
40:15 the film because it was written so long
40:16 ago oh wait hang on let me let me do
40:19 that for the Tik tocker sorry about that
40:26 um and and so so it had all these shots
40:30 and then what I said
40:32 was here are the
40:35 techniques and I said if you were to
40:37 distill the story down into a two-minute
40:39 film and update the locations to be
40:41 modern today and today's issues create
40:45 an outline that would tell an evocative
40:47 story that is in honor of the original
40:50 not a replica of it right so I wanted to
40:52 do like a a nod to KO and a scoty but
40:54 not knock it off and so then it gave me
40:58 you know opening shot green lens melting
41:01 glaciers um Urban expansion sequence 2
41:05 so it gave me a bunch of stuff which is
41:07 kind of
41:08 cool
41:12 um and then I said great now I'd like
41:14 you to create individual shot prompts so
41:17 so I wanted it to create
41:18 individual prompts for the specific
41:23 locations gave it some specifics and
41:26 then it did that so sequence one shot
41:28 one sequence One Shot Two
41:31 um it gave me kind of generic locations
41:35 and so I told it after it generated all
41:37 this stuff I said no I want specific
41:39 locations I don't want anything generic
41:40 in here give me specific
41:43 locations um understood here's a list of
41:45 specific locations so Buckeye Utah Katy
41:48 Texas new Clark City
41:50 Philippines and so it even created so
41:53 sequence one Urban expansion sequence
41:56 two industrial farming and
41:58 deforestation um and so it went through
42:01 and did this and so I'm I'm sort of
42:03 building on this refining it refining
42:05 it um then I had it write the prompts
42:08 and then I wanted it to do multiple
42:10 shots within the prompts okay there's a
42:13 poll on tiktock hang on a sec let me
42:15 take a look at
42:21 it let's see are you second screening
42:24 Kyle on your other device okay so here's
42:26 the question for that poll so in the
42:28 upper corner if you're on Tik Tok in the
42:30 upper corner over there is this poll
42:32 where the little blue the little blue
42:34 and white thing on an angle is it's a
42:37 clipboard if you're watching the stream
42:40 on one screen and then doing comments on
42:42 the other screen just let us know that
42:44 or if you're just watching it on one or
42:46 the other that's great all right let me
42:48 just go look at comments here see if
42:49 anyone has any questions over here was
42:52 this 40 or01 preview this was 40 so I
42:56 just used 40 for this cuz I wanted it I
42:58 wanted it to have access to the internet
43:00 although this film's so old that I'm
43:02 sure all the information about this is
43:05 is well in there um if I wasn't
43:08 multitasking I'd
43:10 multiscreen um okay so what I ended up
43:13 doing here this this was kind of
43:19 [Music]
43:21 cool at some point here I realized so so
43:24 I had it give me so like in KD Texas
43:26 sequence One Shot 2 a sequence one shot
43:29 2B so it it labeled all of these prompts
43:32 you know in in sequence in the movie
43:34 because I realized as I'm making all
43:36 these prompts the the
43:39 um keeping track of them was going to be
43:42 a [ __ ] nightmare right so I had it
43:44 labeled them so that was kind of
43:46 cool and then probably around this
43:55 time I flipped over to 40 with
44:01 canvas and I said put those things in
44:05 canvas and so if you don't know what
44:07 canvas is canvas is if I click on this
44:12 now my my prompt is over here on the
44:14 left and the actual shot list is over
44:17 here on the
44:18 right so this was really cool so then
44:20 what I tried to do so because all of
44:23 these things were
44:25 um were just Geographic shots right were
44:29 just geography and Landscapes and things
44:31 like that um I wanted people too and so
44:36 what I tried to do was I tried to have
44:38 it um add people in here but it ended up
44:41 getting really confused it like it would
44:44 give me additional shots but then it
44:45 wouldn't label them and then at one
44:47 point it just stopped updating this
44:49 canvas Al together so what I ended up
44:52 doing was making a whole another canvas
44:57 let me
44:58 this is another cool thing you can do
45:00 you can balance these windows you can
45:01 open this one
45:03 wider
45:17 um so here's Coan scoty people closeups
45:21 all right so it's like yes give me all
45:24 the screens is 42% no I'm team Tik tock
45:32 57% okay so now I've got um a second
45:37 canvas of
45:40 shots D through f for each of the
45:43 locations where it's just extreme
45:45 close-ups of people so what I did was I
45:49 I I took the the the first canvas the
45:52 one that had the
45:55 locations and went to so here's the shot
45:59 list so I just started with Buckeye
46:02 Arizona and I just copied I included the
46:04 sequence in the shot because I wanted
46:06 that in the name of the prompt and so
46:09 and it's got camera orbit right so it's
46:11 using the camera moves from dream
46:14 machine and so here's the prompt so I
46:17 copied this over to dream
46:20 machine and I made these images so
46:24 there's
46:25 one here's another one of the same thing
46:28 this is one where I included I wanted to
46:29 see if including that numbering screwed
46:31 up the prompt it didn't which was good
46:35 and then here's like a completely
46:38 unusable um you know morphing
46:42 tractor and this one was fine it's not a
46:44 great shop but it was
46:46 fine and then here's you know like a
46:49 desert you know uh development here's
46:53 another development encroaching on a
46:55 wheat
46:56 field you know there's just a wheat
46:58 field there's nothing in that shot
46:59 that's not interesting at all this is
47:01 another one where the machine kind of
47:03 morphs and does weird
47:05 [ __ ]
47:06 um so what I noticed about this so all
47:09 of these were just text to video in
47:12 dream
47:13 machine and so about the time I got to
47:17 these I'm just like I feel like all of
47:19 these shots are just boring or or [ __ ]
47:22 up they're just weird or they're
47:25 boring so then I was like well wait a
47:28 minute because I've got these canvases I
47:31 can just tell it to instead of writing
47:35 video prompts write me mid Journey
47:38 prompts and so that's what I did so I
47:41 basically said take this big long ass
47:43 shot list of video prompts and turn
47:47 those into mid Journey
47:50 prompts which I've got in another canvas
47:53 so in this yeah so oh there's there's
47:55 the people closeups
47:57 and then somewhere down
48:05 here mid Journey static image prompts
48:08 and so
48:09 now I've got all these same locations
48:13 but these are now mid Journey prompts
48:16 and so then I went to Mid
48:21 journey and these are dramatically
48:24 better like dramatically better
48:27 like look at that shot that's so cool
48:29 like that and that's very if you if you
48:31 ever saw Kos scoty like that's the kind
48:33 of shots that that they filmed right
48:36 these crazy shots at Sunset you know
48:39 crazy shapes on
48:42 screen you know just these are cool
48:45 dramatic you know mid Journey's just
48:48 better at composition
48:57 and so what I'm literally doing
49:01 here like that's in the Philippines new
49:04 Clark city in the
49:06 Philippines really
49:13 amazing this was just one of the tests
49:15 of the close-ups of the
49:17 people and so and so literally what I'm
49:20 doing is I'm going to chat
49:23 GPT let's see Katie Texas I think we got
49:26 as far as as the Philippines right yeah
49:28 this was the aerial shot of the
49:30 Philippines so then I just grab I grab
49:32 the whole quote
49:34 including
49:37 um including the sequence number then I
49:41 flip over to Mid
49:42 Journey pop it in there there's like the
49:47 the title of the prompt is a bit
49:49 duplicative so I just delete that but I
49:52 leave the
49:54 uh the sequence number then I just hit
49:57 submit then I go back to chat GPT grab
50:01 the next
50:02 one copy go back to Mid
50:05 Journey
50:08 paste get rid of the that part of the
50:11 prompt hit return and this is it so it's
50:15 just kind of mindless like once you do
50:17 the once you do the work of figuring out
50:20 what you want the story to be and have
50:21 it fill in the story then you're just
50:25 Off to the Races
50:28 so now we're going to
50:30 Brazil copy back to Mid Journey
50:35 paste we
50:37 can see what it's creating here so
50:39 there's there's that closeup of the
50:43 person that's weird that's weird that's
50:46 weird that's weird but kind of
50:49 cool those are the see like that's
50:51 really good so if I if I download this
50:54 one let's go grab that one
50:57 then I come over to Luma
51:03 Labs grab that image that's it
51:07 there and just say um
51:13 workers
51:18 um let's see workers workers working and
51:22 then do
51:24 camera pull out and
51:29 submit and so this is basically it this
51:31 is basically the
51:36 process go grab
51:44 this copy it go over here oh did I not
51:48 submit that
51:50 no do that there
51:57 failed unrecognized parameters
52:08 what all
52:10 right that's another cool shot of
52:18 construction oh these are cool
52:35 huh deforestation at its finest
52:50 [Music]
53:00 Winston Hardy I thought the film quos
53:02 scoty was pretty interesting at the time
53:04 watched it a couple of times I actually
53:05 saw a version of it in New York City at
53:08 the uh forget what the theater was on
53:11 the upper upper west side in the
53:14 70s where um Philip glass's Orchestra
53:18 played played it live while the movie
53:20 played that was pretty cool
53:24 [Music]
53:31 okay
53:34 um let's see I'm in Tik Tok
53:38 [Music]
53:41 YouTube um all right so that's that's
53:45 kind of the
53:47 process go to Mid Journey make those
53:50 images jump over to Luma Labs so here's
53:55 this shot
53:57 right that'll look good in the film
53:59 there's a little bit of morphing at the
54:00 top here but not bad enough that people
54:04 would notice it because these these
54:05 shots just go by like
54:13 that and this looks so much better
54:19 than let's see like these boring things
54:23 right like like that video right there
54:25 is just boring like like that's like
54:28 what someone would film on their iPhone
54:30 if they were just like you know in a
54:32 truck driving you know driving across
54:35 the desert it doesn't look like
54:39 film but you know these
54:42 do like that's pretty
54:46 slick so then I went over
54:49 to
54:51 um too
55:00 and then I did a whole [ __ ] ton
55:06 of avantgard stuff let me change out
55:11 my screen share here for a second hang
55:14 on
55:30 so let's see avangard aggressive
55:32 minimalist piano strings sound inspired
55:35 by Coan scoty so I put the the name of
55:38 the film in here but not the artists and
55:40 it seemed to be fine with it I don't
55:41 know if it improved it but it gave me
55:44 stuff that was in the neighborhood of
55:45 what I was looking
55:47 [Applause]
55:50 [Music]
56:04 let's got some
56:19 [Music]
56:37 from songs
56:42 [Music]
57:02 web of promises spun with
57:05 [Music]
57:10 silver
57:12 [Music]
57:15 silue all right sounds like my the music
57:18 is drowning me out actually let me let
57:19 me experiment with something here let me
57:21 turn this
57:24 down that can you hear me
57:29 [Music]
57:38 [Music]
57:40 all right so I I won't talk while I play
57:46 [Music]
58:00 these are kind of cool they're not
58:02 they're not really in the neighborhood
58:03 of what I was looking for but they're
58:05 cool
58:15 music like a lot of that new Fast ass
58:31 [Music]
58:43 [Applause]
58:51 [Music]
59:06 oh these these are the ones I ended up
59:08 liking the best so these Moon facing
59:11 ones so the the promp here was avantgard
59:13 minimalist cello solo over brass and
59:16 strings inspired by co co scoty
59:19 experimental so these these four I think
59:21 there's something in here I'll use I
59:23 don't I don't know which one yet
59:26 [Music]
59:40 [Music]
59:49 [Music]
59:58 [Music]
1:00:29 one of these I think it was this
1:00:31 [Music]
1:00:34 one yeah so what's cool so I think this
1:00:38 one Moon facing the the three minute
1:00:41 version here has got like six different
1:00:44 sections in it and the script that chat
1:00:46 GPT wrote has six different
1:00:49 sequences and so I think what I might
1:00:51 try to do is time all the different
1:00:53 sequences to these six different
1:00:55 sections so let me play this whole thing
1:00:57 this is the one I think I'm going to go
1:00:58 with sunos seems scenes seems
1:01:02 interesting yeah I haven't played with
1:01:03 scenes yet so scenes is where you can
1:01:06 upload a video and then it'll write the
1:01:08 music for it um that might be something
1:01:11 fun to try with this actually
1:01:17 [Music]
1:01:32 [Music]
1:01:41 [Music]
1:01:49 [Music]
1:01:56 e
1:02:01 [Music]
1:02:06 [Music]
1:02:27 [Music]
1:02:40 right so there's there's a change right
1:02:42 so so there's this starts out really
1:02:44 fast these
1:02:46 things then it goes into this halftime
1:02:50 thing and then it goes into this thing
1:02:59 [Music]
1:03:09 [Music]
1:03:10 here's the fourth
1:03:12 one
1:03:17 right this
1:03:19 is for a project like this
1:03:41 [Music]
1:03:45 so there's kind of a false ending
1:03:57 [Music]
1:04:27 and I thought what might be kind of cool
1:04:28 toward the end there where it gets
1:04:30 really quiet is that's where we switch
1:04:32 over to instead of places we do
1:04:37 faces so did I do one of these this
1:04:40 video Let's
1:04:47 see John Williams just called he's
1:04:49 returning his music degree and moving to
1:04:52 Texas
1:04:59 yeah yeah I
1:05:02 know listen again a big part of my
1:05:08 um My Philosophy with all this stuff
1:05:12 hang on a sec let me share my screen
1:05:14 here wait that
1:05:18 one um
1:05:21 [Music]
1:05:27 a lot of my philosophy on this stuff
1:05:31 is you know the comments before about
1:05:34 you know are you actually you know
1:05:37 manually editing any of this stuff no
1:05:39 I'm not I'm what I'm trying to do is
1:05:41 learn what these tools make possible and
1:05:44 new kinds of creative processes and I
1:05:47 think I this is a I I got into an
1:05:50 interesting back and forth I think on
1:05:52 Twitter this week or over the weekend
1:05:58 where Ethan mullik put out put out a
1:06:02 post that
1:06:04 said
1:06:07 um what did it say he said
1:06:13 um instead of using chat GPT to give you
1:06:16 an idea use chat GPT to give you 20
1:06:19 ideas and that's what that's I I've been
1:06:23 kind of coming to a similar conclusion
1:06:24 where it's like you've got this
1:06:26 incredibly powerful ideation machine it
1:06:29 can do lots of other things but it's
1:06:30 really good at ideating if you let
1:06:33 it and what I'm finding is that I'm the
1:06:36 bottleneck
1:06:38 to being able to do better work with AI
1:06:42 because how I think is
1:06:44 limited and so I'm trying to force
1:06:47 myself to do different [ __ ] right I'm
1:06:51 trying to force myself to work in a way
1:06:54 that's not comfortable for me so just
1:06:56 just having the machine vomit out a
1:06:58 bunch of ideas and then just take take
1:07:01 those prompts and throw them into a
1:07:04 video generation tool or an image
1:07:06 generation tool and just see what comes
1:07:07 out and see if it turns in into anything
1:07:10 coherent like I don't know that there's
1:07:12 another way to learn how to do this
1:07:14 other than just [ __ ] throw all the
1:07:17 [ __ ] at the wall and don't judge it
1:07:20 right yeah how I'm doing this is not how
1:07:25 we've done creative in the past and how
1:07:28 you plow Fields with a tractor powered
1:07:31 by a steam engine is different than how
1:07:34 you plow a field field with a plow
1:07:36 pulled by horses it's a different
1:07:39 [ __ ]
1:07:40 thing right and so so that's where we
1:07:43 are like we're we're we're in a place
1:07:46 where where you can the the back and
1:07:47 forth I had with someone on on uh on on
1:07:51 X was was essentially I said I said yeah
1:07:54 like I'm trying not to use my brain
1:07:56 anymore and I'm trying to reinvent my
1:07:58 creative process and his response was
1:08:01 something like well not everyone's going
1:08:02 to do that I'm like I know right you're
1:08:05 gonna have you're gonna have some people
1:08:07 that say this is my creative process and
1:08:10 I'm just going to keep doing it the way
1:08:12 I do it and then maybe I'll sprinkle in
1:08:14 some AI tools within that but I'm never
1:08:16 going to change
1:08:18 this and then you're going to have
1:08:20 people that say okay I used to do it a
1:08:22 certain way and let me experiment with
1:08:24 it and I'll I'll try this new way and
1:08:26 they'll reinvent themselves and then
1:08:28 you're going to have a third group of
1:08:30 people who never had a creative process
1:08:33 they've never done anything creative in
1:08:34 their life and they're going to do it
1:08:36 completely [ __ ]
1:08:38 different
1:08:41 so picture and picture Tik Tock wait oh
1:08:44 yeah get rid of
1:08:48 it yeah in fact Let
1:08:51 Me Let Me Entertain You
1:09:00 so
1:09:02 anyway some people get so down on AI
1:09:05 music and art they claim it not to be
1:09:08 art
1:09:09 exactly and
1:09:13 photographers when digital cameras came
1:09:17 out using your brain is overrated I I I
1:09:20 what I find Bob is that using my brain
1:09:24 is my brain
1:09:27 is the choke
1:09:29 point like knowing how to use it is I'm
1:09:34 the choke point not the AI the whole
1:09:37 thing the whole thing
1:09:39 about the whole thing about
1:09:43 um AI not being art I mean AI might not
1:09:46 be art but a piece of AI art sold for
1:09:49 1.1 million dollars today so so having
1:09:54 having a an artist as a wife she has not
1:09:56 sold any paintings for $1.1 million
1:09:59 yet so so some people in the art
1:10:02 community are seeing AI art is Art
1:10:07 um it's it's just another way for people
1:10:09 to express
1:10:11 themselves you
1:10:13 know creating video games didn't used to
1:10:16 be considered an art art form but it is
1:10:20 and that's that's pretty much accepted
1:10:21 now and and you
1:10:23 know financially the video game industry
1:10:26 is bigger than the film industry and and
1:10:29 the AI art industry is probably going to
1:10:31 be big bigger than the video game
1:10:34 industry it's just another transition
1:10:38 every single time there's a new
1:10:40 technology in the history of humanity
1:10:43 we've gone through this same
1:10:45 [ __ ] and it's
1:10:47 [ __ ] it's [ __ ] you can you can
1:10:51 sit there like this with your arms
1:10:52 crossed and go I'm not going to use AI
1:10:54 That's not real art
1:10:56 but first of all your face looks like
1:11:02 this and you're just a drag to be
1:11:05 [Laughter]
1:11:14 around it kind of teaches you how to
1:11:16 think yeah it it does or
1:11:20 or I think what it does for me CEF is it
1:11:24 is it forces me
1:11:32 it forces me to rethink how I think it
1:11:35 forces me
1:11:38 to to ask the question what if there's
1:11:41 another
1:11:43 way what if you just let the machine
1:11:46 take
1:11:47 over and I don't mean take over like
1:11:50 it's doing all the work it's just it's
1:11:52 taking over for doing the blocking and
1:11:54 tackling of
1:11:57 ideation like rather than me spending 20
1:12:00 minutes going oh what ideas of locations
1:12:04 could I find to do a film like Coan
1:12:06 scoty wait let me go to Google and let
1:12:08 me look up you know shot locations that
1:12:11 they filmed in COA Scotti and let let me
1:12:14 do some research to see if there's
1:12:16 growing cities that would be you know
1:12:19 comparable to what they were doing in
1:12:21 the 80s to what's going on
1:12:23 now why just say go find me [ __ ] that's
1:12:26 like
1:12:27 that out it
1:12:29 comes you
1:12:33 know GPT search yeah I know exactly I
1:12:38 can't write short stories all suck but
1:12:40 film seems to be clear to
1:12:42 me yeah it's just if you're visual you
1:12:45 know I I bet you probably could write a
1:12:47 short story if you thought about it as a
1:12:50 film you could you could probably it
1:12:53 would probably be actually be really
1:12:54 good cuz you're you're super good at
1:12:57 visual
1:12:58 storytelling when you make movies so you
1:13:01 might just need to stop thinking about
1:13:04 it as words and just say well how would
1:13:06 I describe the film that I see in my
1:13:07 head that might be a way to write short
1:13:09 stories or [ __ ]
1:13:11 it you know um make the movie and then
1:13:16 upload stills of your movie to chat GPT
1:13:19 and say you know here's the basic plot
1:13:22 here's the visuals write it for me
1:13:32 that's gonna piss the writers
1:13:34 [Laughter]
1:13:40 off oh good lordy good lordy good lordy
1:13:45 what's happening all right what else we
1:13:47 gonna talk
1:13:49 about that was I don't know if that was
1:13:51 useful at all I always feel like when
1:13:54 when I try to Dem
1:13:56 real [ __ ] there's so
1:14:00 much that it's it's harder to demo I
1:14:03 don't know it just it feels like it's
1:14:05 overwhelming so I'm curious if you found
1:14:08 that valuable at
1:14:15 all people can't handle the truth and
1:14:18 imagine it this is the janky times
1:14:21 that's it that's it I mean this this is
1:14:23 this is the janky times
1:14:26 I'm not shocked but I'm already
1:14:27 complacent with the AI tools I've been
1:14:29 using which which says to me everything
1:14:31 else we will all collectively adapt and
1:14:34 acquire this Tech with open unimpressed
1:14:36 arms I I I totally agree I'm we talked
1:14:39 about this Cindy [ __ ] had a we had a
1:14:41 little meeting today that Cindy [ __ ] put
1:14:44 together and all of us on that meeting
1:14:47 were talking
1:14:48 about feeling uninspired and I was like
1:14:52 yeah I put together this video over the
1:14:54 weekend that the end result was this
1:14:56 really beautiful thing and I liked it
1:14:59 but it was
1:15:00 like like the the creative process was
1:15:05 not it was more curating than
1:15:09 creating right and I think that's what
1:15:12 some of the comments earlier
1:15:14 were um were well this this isn't real
1:15:18 creative because you just you just
1:15:21 manifested it into
1:15:24 being you know I totally disagree with
1:15:26 that
1:15:28 but as you get better with these tools
1:15:31 you can do remarkable things like like
1:15:33 if I were decently competent at at
1:15:35 coding with AI and decently competent
1:15:38 with film making with AI and decently
1:15:40 competent with writing with AI and
1:15:42 decently competent with molecular design
1:15:44 with AI like like we are going to get to
1:15:47 the point that the people that choose to
1:15:53 expand their capacity
1:15:56 are going to be able to literally choose
1:15:59 the kinds of outputs the ways they want
1:16:01 to express
1:16:03 themselves and I find that tremendously
1:16:07 exciting but I also I agree with you
1:16:09 Shane that
1:16:12 that how I and I think how we as a
1:16:15 community have normalized these tools
1:16:18 over the past two years is pretty
1:16:20 remarkable like the fact that I could
1:16:23 make I could make the fil film while I
1:16:25 was watching a football game I could
1:16:27 make that film write the music edit it
1:16:30 you know in I don't know what it took me
1:16:32 maybe 90 minutes maybe an hour I don't
1:16:35 know maybe two
1:16:37 hours but it was just kind of
1:16:40 mindless prompting make images make them
1:16:44 into movies some of them suck some of
1:16:46 them don't see see if you can make it
1:16:48 better you know having it write that
1:16:51 whole script and then realizing that
1:16:53 Luma lab's Dreamscapes text to video
1:16:56 made kind of boring
1:16:58 shots and then realizing oh I need to
1:17:00 make these all mid Journey prompts and
1:17:03 then go to Mid journey and make more
1:17:04 interesting images and now see if I can
1:17:06 turn those into interesting film shots
1:17:09 and see if I get enough of those to put
1:17:11 together it's just a
1:17:14 different it's still creative problem
1:17:17 solving it's just different problems
1:17:19 right I'm not having to learn how to use
1:17:22 [ __ ] aperture right I'm not having to
1:17:26 go out and photograph all those
1:17:28 locations I couldn't physically do it I
1:17:32 couldn't financially do it but now I
1:17:35 can that it's curated instead of
1:17:40 art oh well like so I agree listen the
1:17:45 process is more curation I think the
1:17:47 output is still
1:17:49 art the art is what I as an artist
1:17:53 choose to put in the world
1:17:56 world like I so part of let me let me
1:17:59 share something
1:18:01 here
1:18:06 uh let me move this over
1:18:10 here
1:18:12 oops let me do this do this hang on
1:18:17 people I'm figuring this [ __ ]
1:18:21 out
1:18:24 okay so so when I went to X over the
1:18:37 weekend I
1:18:40 wrote I taught myself cello this weekend
1:18:43 for the for the music to back these film
1:18:46 clips I bought out a yard sale this
1:18:47 summer for $150 I wonder who the
1:18:50 photographer was so talented sound on
1:18:53 and then you know I definitely did not
1:18:55 use chat gbt mid Journey Luma Labs sunno
1:18:58 music I promise and then I tagged the
1:19:00 person from Luma Labs
1:19:03 um for
1:19:05 me that paragraph is is as much the art
1:19:10 as the video
1:19:13 right just someone stumbling through
1:19:15 here that that sees that that doesn't
1:19:18 know
1:19:19 me might actually think that I taught
1:19:22 myself cello this weekend do I care I
1:19:25 don't [ __ ] care that's part of the
1:19:27 art
1:19:28 right so I think I think the art is what
1:19:32 what we choose
1:19:34 to put in the world as
1:19:38 art and again I go back to how I did
1:19:43 that is none of your [ __ ]
1:19:47 business you know
1:19:58 it's all I got to
1:20:00 say nobody's [ __ ]
1:20:03 business we are still the seeds of
1:20:05 inspiration and the idea spark yeah and
1:20:07 we're we're the ones that that choose
1:20:10 what we put in the
1:20:12 world we're the ones that choose what we
1:20:14 put in the world
1:20:25 I don't think I flipped my my Tik Tok
1:20:28 screen right when I just showed that
1:20:30 before sorry about
1:20:37 [Music]
1:20:44 that thoughts questions oh
1:20:49 um let's go look at by the way I didn't
1:20:52 say it earlier happy Veterans Day so
1:20:55 especially for those of you that have
1:20:57 served our country thank you for your
1:20:59 service um so happy Veterans Day and I
1:21:02 think there's
1:21:05 probably some things to go look at in
1:21:08 the AI learning lab so let
1:21:10 me do this do this do
1:21:15 this do this do
1:21:18 this do that which I didn't do before
1:21:27 M do that and then let's go over to so
1:21:33 where I'm
1:21:34 going is I'm going to the AI salon so if
1:21:39 you haven't joined the AI Salon go to
1:21:40 the salon. scroll down click on join our
1:21:43 community and that will take you to this
1:21:46 site I think it'll land you right on
1:21:48 this welcome to the salon and there's a
1:21:50 video here and we talk about our um our
1:21:54 journey to
1:21:57 literacy and play first mindfully create
1:22:00 generously lead it's a really cool
1:22:01 Community but down here in the section
1:22:05 called Community clubs is a club called
1:22:08 AI L
1:22:12 Irregulars and only feet yeah we we were
1:22:16 the the foot video I showed earlier was
1:22:18 was this thing we talked about today
1:22:20 from a a fake porn site called only feet
1:22:29 oh nice Danielle look at that that's
1:22:31 super cool that's a good that's a good
1:22:33 Veterans Day
1:22:37 image very nice very
1:22:43 nice Turtles
1:22:49 nice very
1:22:52 cute click to expand the SCP rroll
1:22:56 down love that that's super
1:23:00 cool these are great what
1:23:04 um which image generation tool did you
1:23:07 use to do these are these all
1:23:09 um
1:23:13 flux oh I like that one
1:23:27 nice beautiful
1:23:30 beautiful all right I don't know which
1:23:32 one she did these in does it say in
1:23:38 the open image in new
1:23:47 tab does it say
1:23:52 [Music]
1:23:56 there all right so let
1:24:02 me by the way if you're
1:24:05 in the AI Salon that Fade Away movie
1:24:09 that I made is in the video and
1:24:10 animation showand tell
1:24:13 Channel I think she said flux yeah that
1:24:16 I I think she's been using flux lately
1:24:18 it's flux or that other image generation
1:24:20 the open source one but I'm pretty sure
1:24:22 sure she's been using flux
1:24:25 the the image generation tools there's
1:24:27 so many of them are so good now it's
1:24:29 pretty amazing what's what's available I
1:24:32 also today was trying to work on some
1:24:34 some stuff for
1:24:40 um for work and I was using four
1:24:44 different video
1:24:47 models
1:24:52 and they're all they're all sort of good
1:24:56 they're all eh sort of
1:25:02 good nothing nothing right now is great
1:25:06 but we'll see we'll see we'll see if we
1:25:08 get anything in the next week or two
1:25:09 from from open AI there might be some
1:25:11 new stuff out maybe we get SORA but at
1:25:13 this point I kind of feel like Sora Sora
1:25:16 is playing katchup to the Halo the the
1:25:20 Halo one h a i l o u. a I think it is
1:25:26 that one's pretty
1:25:27 remarkable but they're just you know
1:25:30 they're all really expensive the uh the
1:25:32 video things it's hard to experiment
1:25:34 with them which kind of sucks anyway all
1:25:36 right I'm gonna get out of here so
1:25:38 tomorrow
1:25:40 night
1:25:43 um I don't have Brandon so so running
1:25:48 running this streamyard thing without a
1:25:50 producer is actually really hard so so
1:25:53 he's traveling tomorrow so I think what
1:25:55 I'm going to do is um we'll do a Twitter
1:26:00 spaces tomorrow night so I'll start
1:26:02 we'll start on Tik Tok and then I'll
1:26:05 shut that down or maybe I'll just leave
1:26:06 it running I don't know no no I probably
1:26:09 won't I think it'll be too confusing um
1:26:12 and I think we'll flip over to Twitter
1:26:14 spaces so so prep you know prepare to
1:26:17 hang out we can just hang out and bring
1:26:19 people up on stage and just shoot the
1:26:21 [ __ ] about AI all right so um
1:26:25 my URL if you can pop this up there
1:26:28 Brandon my URL is uh or or my uh my
1:26:33 account name on Twitter is Kyle
1:26:37 Shannon I have 20 notebooks in Notebook
1:26:40 LM right now very nice Halo is minx
1:26:42 that's
1:26:43 right minia Max is the name of their
1:26:46 model yep Mini Max seems to be the the
1:26:49 leader of the pack right now in terms of
1:26:52 quality of physics uh um all the others
1:26:56 seem to be similarly janky like like
1:26:59 where most of these models fail
1:27:01 miserably is like vehicles with wheels
1:27:03 rolling like the wheels don't roll or
1:27:06 the wheels morph into other things I
1:27:08 there's something weird about vehicles
1:27:10 with all the models but Minx is
1:27:13 decent um so we'll see um but that seems
1:27:17 pretty good all right I will never use
1:27:20 Twitter I understand that but I
1:27:26 think it's going to be important so I'm
1:27:29 experimenting there forget Sora give me
1:27:32 agents yeah no [ __ ] I'm right there with
1:27:34 you
1:27:36 Jason I will never use Twitter
1:27:40 USX that was pretty funny
1:27:47 Jason yeah I know we're in we're in
1:27:51 [ __ ] weird town right now everything
1:27:53 is weird everything is weird all right
1:27:58 let's see all right so what I would like
1:28:02 you to
1:28:04 do is um go to the salon. hang on a sec
1:28:10 let me pop this up here go to the
1:28:18 salon. wait how do I flip this uh I go
1:28:22 and I go and I go flip camera
1:28:25 bang all right go to the
1:28:28 salon. if you haven't joined and click
1:28:32 join our community and come on in go
1:28:34 over and introduce yourself and sort of
1:28:36 there's kind of a seven-step welcome
1:28:38 process there so just jump over there
1:28:39 and do
1:28:41 that all
1:28:44 right I said that right yeah we're in
1:28:47 weird
1:28:50 times Anthony bubbles I deleted it but
1:28:52 maybe for Kyle I won't I would download
1:28:54 it again oh that's sweet well I just
1:28:57 we'll we'll just
1:29:00 like I figure for the end of the year I
1:29:02 mean there's there's a couple of things
1:29:04 going on I think that there is a high
1:29:06 likelihood that
1:29:10 um that Tick Tock is about to go away I
1:29:14 I I didn't believe that um I mean I
1:29:17 didn't feel that way um prior to the
1:29:20 election but I just think uh considering
1:29:23 all the powers that be
1:29:25 that are not invested in Tik Tok um I
1:29:28 just the the the
1:29:31 capitalist in me understands that you
1:29:34 know one way to get rid of the
1:29:35 competition is to get rid of the
1:29:37 competition
1:29:39 so so I think that's got a much higher
1:29:42 likelihood of happening than it did
1:29:44 before so I'm just trying to figure out
1:29:47 how I migrate my activity to a place
1:29:50 that's going to be relatively stable so
1:29:53 I figure for the end for the rest of the
1:29:55 year I'm just going to keep
1:29:56 experimenting with with different piece
1:29:59 parts so that's that's kind of why this
1:30:01 channel has gone janky like I understand
1:30:04 it's janky and I appreciate that and
1:30:06 it's not comfortable for me and I assume
1:30:09 I assume if you've been here a lot
1:30:11 you're like Jesus where is like what's
1:30:12 going on where why are we everywhere
1:30:14 part of it's just that like like we had
1:30:17 a nice stable place and I just have this
1:30:19 sense that in the next two months it's
1:30:20 not going to be stable so so that's it
1:30:23 all right
1:30:25 um I think it we'll be fine Tik Tok is
1:30:29 not going away uh we'll see we'll see I
1:30:33 just think it's got a higher likelihood
1:30:34 than it did before uh but anyway we will
1:30:37 start on Tik Tok tomorrow okay all right
1:30:40 all right
1:30:42 everybody fantastic so thank you for
1:30:45 hanging out let
1:30:48 me flip this

1:31:00 taking off cam I'm just just whining
1:31:02 things up you didn't miss a lot tonight
1:31:04 it was a lot of me sort of
1:31:07 showing an overly detailed process that
1:31:10 I don't think worked all that well every
1:31:12 time every time I think I know I'll show
1:31:15 I'll show this really detailed thing and
1:31:17 it'll be great I think it's not great I
1:31:20 think I think this channel works better
