A year ago, open ai released chatgpt, which made the original highly professional text and image creation "at your fingertips", and the ai concept began to spread around the world. In the past few days, Open AI released the video generation model sora, which once again shocked the world.
It is understood that through text commands, sora can directly output videos up to 60 seconds long, and contain highly detailed backgrounds, complex multi-angle shots, and multiple emotional characters. This means that after text and image creation, AI technology has expanded into the field of video, which will bring unprecedented challenges to the content creation, entertainment and film and television production industries. Some people even shouted excitedly: "We really see the new industrial revolution coming. ".
ai The rapid advancement of technology means that professional art and video producers will no longer be needed in the future? The earliest AI graphic art designer in China, relying on the experience of the dark horse up master "AI Madhouse" with two AI short films that became popular all over the Internet, may be able to provide the best answer.
"ai Madhouse" himself is a senior technical art expert with 15 years of experience in film, television and games. When AI painting technology just started to "explore" a few years ago, he began to use artificial intelligence AI training models to create art. AI has been used to generate video animations such as Silk Road, Nine Sons of the Dragon, and the Myth of Crusu. Currently, more than 200 AI animated short films have been created, gaining more than 150,000 fans and over one million views on Douyin and Bilibili. Thumbs up.
At the beginning of this year, "ai Madhouse" uploaded two short videos with the theme of "Journey to the West" on station b, using AI technology to vividly present the story of the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood, the lion camel ridge, and the story from the birth of the stone monkey to the apprenticeship. The unique artistic style has won unanimous praise from netizens. The two AI "Journey to the West" video shorts have been viewed more than 2.3 million times.
As a result, "ai Madhouse" gained 27,000 fans and became the dark horse of station B at the beginning of the year. It has been reported by many media including China News Network, CCTV, and Phoenix News.
Because of the "speciality" of AI painting, many official media also specially interviewed and reported on "AI Madhouse", asking him how the video creation through AI is different from traditional art and video creation. According to "AI Madhouse", AI can significantly reduce the time for art creation, but it is not "zero threshold". If you want to create amazing works, you still need the professionalism of the creator.
Take the short film about the birth of the stone monkey in "Journey to the West" as an example. This 3 minute and 56 second animated short film would have taken at least half a year if it had to be produced entirely manually. And through AI technology, "AI Madhouse" completed it in just one week.
The entire video production process also tends to be more "creative summary" and "project management".
When creating a video, "ai Madhouse" will first use chatgpt to analyze the original text, let ai help it plan some storyboard plans, and then find the right one and carry out storyboard planning.
After planning the storyboard, "ai Madhouse" will use AI painting software to create the desired pictures. After making corrections, it will then use "picture generation video" software to animate these pictures and put them together for editing.
Whether it is storyboard planning or AI picture creation, it is full of "randomness". There will be a lot of scraps in the whole process, and "AI Madhouse" requires planning and selecting the most suitable content among the massive materials, connecting and coordinating them, and finally forming a clear and highly complete AI video. Short film.
Taking the "Journey to the West" animated short film as an example, "AI Madhouse" used AI to produce more than 3,000 pictures, and finally selected about 100 pictures. Moreover, there are still many limitations in AI-generated videos, but with the rapid advancement of technology, things that cannot be done now can be easily done one day in the future.
It is not difficult to see from the official media interview with "AI Madhouse" that compared to traditional painting, AI can create billions or even tens of billions of materials in a short period of time, giving creators more possibilities. Make your selection.However, if you want to present content that meets the aesthetic needs of the public, you still need the creativity, thinking and relevant experience of the creators themselves.
With the birth of sora, AI technology will make a further leap in the field of content creation, helping creators turn their ideas into reality at a lower cost and faster speed, bringing a richer and more diverse visual experience. "ai Madhouse" is also very optimistic about sora and looks forward to making videos with better effects through sora.
By then, AI "Journey to the West" may appear in front of us with even more amazing speed and quality.
