Runway Just Dropped Some BIG News!

[@TeddyLeppard]

Honestly, one of the most interesting things to come out recently is being able to completely relight a scene. That has real value to filmmakers.

[@curiousrefuge]

Which tool are you referring to?

[@ThisFrameDoesntExist]

​@@curiousrefugeMaybe Magnific Ai?

[@adnansalim2187]

Seriously the golden question from any upcoming creator would be this: The question is comprehensive so I’ve listed it as steps 1-I want to feed characters that are digitally made or hand drawn and scanned 2-I want to assign numbers to my characters eg 1,2,3,4- - etc 3-I want to give prompts such as “ character 1 is climbing the stairs on the side of a four storey building while character 2 is simultaneously climbing the same building on the other side with a rope and character 3 and 4 are playing cards on a room on the 3rd storey of the building. 4-once the clip is made, I want to make the next scene with the same (and more added) characters. When is such simple command to action possible ?

2028

[@DieFliegendeKatze]

Next month!

[@Vurt72]

maybe in a year or two? that we are even this far is totally incredible. This is still the first baby steps into AI movie generation, so its kind of strange to expect it to be finalized already. technology never stands still but things don't happen over night, well, sometimes, but rarely.

[@curiousrefuge]

All of the tings on your wishlist will take quite some time! Especially the numbering system.

[@chariots8x230]

16:08 I agree with the person who said that a documentary is supposed to be documenting facts, not manipulating them. Sure, you can use AI to create historical re-enactments (as long as these re-enactments clearly appear fictional, and are represented in a filmmaking style). However, they didn’t just create a historical re-enactment. They created what looked like real-life photos that were taken of that person next to other people. That is obviously a misrepresentation. Even though they told everybody that they used AI to generate these photos, I still don’t think this is the right way to use AI in a documentary. I don’t think real-life historical photos should be altered with AI, nor should AI be used to generate images that look like real-life photos of a person to be used in a documentary.

[@curiousrefuge]

We appreciate your perspective on this!

[@lotuseyesfilms]

Thank you for sharing all these information!

[@curiousrefuge]

You are so welcome!

[@renegaderaid]

Topaz is the secret sauce ❤

[@BybbyCreme]

some really cool stuff in here, esp. Holodreamer. Thank you for your effort!

[@curiousrefuge]

My pleasure!

[@BinaryFrameProductions]

Great video guys!!!

[@curiousrefuge]

Thanks for watching!

[@franziskahansel]

I'm curious how are the films of the week selected? Amazing work and congrats to all the creators! ☺

[@curiousrefuge]

Our team internally chooses based on a variety of factors :)

[@anilalaf]

Congrats @thedorbrothers for getting into AI Film of the week!

[@curiousrefuge]

Dorbrothers rock!

[@halitsanr4439]

Thank you for your efforts !!

[@curiousrefuge]

Our pleasure!

[@chrisfreilich]

5:30-6:05 (ish), you keep calling Midjourney Runway!

[@darkepicfilms]

that will be fixed in 6.2

[@curiousrefuge]

Woops! We appreciate the call out

[@AIDreamsForever]

Thanks for a great video. Started with AI-generated music a while ago with Suno, really impressed so far. Can't wait to generate videos as well, accepting it's just for fun and a bit ridiculous so far. Wondering if it's better to wait for Sora or go for Runway.

[@curiousrefuge]

Thanks for watching!

[@CreedStonegate]

Great video! I'd love to see a video about the best places to post our AI video projects to get eyeballs on them.

[@curiousrefuge]

Good idea!

[@j.d.4697]

As a musician I have to change the genre changes are amazing.

[@curiousrefuge]

So cool, right?!

[@similarvideo]

Great video!

[@curiousrefuge]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@fluid1614]

Watched the Netflix doccie before and had no idea that part had any AI. I legit thought he sold some "how to get rich" DVDs aswell. Well done, it does make it a bit sketchy though.

[@curiousrefuge]

It's certainly a conversation that needs to be had about how to AI Docs right!

[@itumelengnkabinde]

honestly a-lot of documentaries use Re-enactments, so personally dont see the difference in using ai to give life to words that were written.

[@curiousrefuge]

We agree - so long as it is called out and the audience understands!

[@fluid1614]

Midjourney seems to be dropping the ball lately. Moved to Leonardo for the time being

[@curiousrefuge]

Interesting! We like Leonardo!

[@ijayraj]

What an amazing videos,, i've just one question even if i learn ai filmmaking for fun how can i monetize it? it's a big question i have in my mind.

[@vikkiflawith]

Read the terms of service and plan details for any ai generator you intend to use for still images or image to video. In my last look around it appeared that Leonardo and Runway allowed commercial use even on their free plan, but best you check to be sure. Others do not. Haiper, for example, is a great image to video generator but you have to be subscribed to their top tier to use output commercially (ie monetize it). At this moment I can't find anything on Kling ai.

[@curiousrefuge]

We teach this in our course. However, but certainly always check with terms. Also, be very careful what the ultimate output looks like.

[@EarthDreams-tvart]

@@curiousrefuge Yes, I took it last year!

[@ijayraj]

@@EarthDreams-tvart I'm thinking to buy one too, how's your experience, on skills you learned, the benefits and anything on how to monetize it. Please share your thoughts, i think it will be interesting, Thanks.

[@giri.goyo_yt]

Dave Clark is already an AI GOAT. Does Curious Refuge offer scholarships?

[@curiousrefuge]

Dave Clark is def an AI GOAT! Feel free to email us about potential scholarship opportunities.

[@giri.goyo_yt]

@@curiousrefuge Thank you, I will do just that!

[@marklola12]

i find it crap, i did a smiliar video with my dog, the photo is great quality and i typed in more or less exactly as you did and it morphs my dog into another dog but also changes bails of hair in the field into big walking animals

[@curiousrefuge]

What was your prompt exactly?

[@FindingGod365]

I find most of the AI image to video are trash too. Ugly morphing sometimes horrifically. Sometime extra animals. Can't get simple movement at all

[@NewMarshallPlan]

Request: an AI music video course! I will immediately enroll if you would do that!

[@curiousrefuge]

We are considering it ;)

[@NewMarshallPlan]

❤❤❤ ​@curiousrefuge that would be so awesome! My band already using AI for our music video's, 2 I have created myself, 4 are created by AI video artists I met online. I definitely want to learn more so I can do more myself!

[@b2b457]

hey, sir I am so much interested in AI filming can you pls tell me some free source from where, I can learn it fully. pls, pls, pls reply!🙏🙏🙏

[@curiousrefuge]

Our course isn't free but we have a mini course that is! You can learn more by going to our website at curiousrefuge.com

[@Drugboban]

You need to increase stylization to avoid "fingers" bug in Midjourney

[@curiousrefuge]

Good tip!

[@AlquimistaALAC]

How do you do that?

[@AlquimistaALAC]

Dont you use Discord to make the images on Midjourney?

[@curiousrefuge]

You can use discord or the web version!

[@crazycrypto9454]

I think you meant midjourney not runway 6-6.1. You kept saying runway

[@curiousrefuge]

Yep you’re right. Haha

[@drsjamesserra]

Runway doesn’t reply on issues with Gen-3.

[@curiousrefuge]

Interesting we'll have to test that out ourselves!

[@shireensingh2834]

topaz is very expensive please suggest some cheaper or free alternatives

[@curiousrefuge]

I'm afraid we don't have any alternatives that come even close to the ability of Topaz.

[@rafaeldiazsanchez]

My basically-meter went to the roof during the second half of the video.

[@curiousrefuge]

Hahah sorry, we're working on it! : )

[@TheeRebel]

Bro…. That sweater jacket is fire. Where can I find it?

[@ZEROmax105]

Try to generate

[@curiousrefuge]

Hahah in the thumbnail or video ;)

[@NEURAMos]

AI video will take over KZbin over time, and their quality will continuously improve. Am I the only one who thinks this, or does someone else too?

[@curiousrefuge]

Regardless of the technology, good storytelling will always rise to the top.

[@barneymiller5488]

Midjourney 6.0 > 6.1. And it's not close. I don't get it.

[@barneymiller5488]

Type is better. That's it.

[@curiousrefuge]

We'll try out some more tests! We haven't had the same conclusion quite yet

[@jonathankolt8713]

I like you Chanel 🎉

[@curiousrefuge]

Thanks so much!

[@micbab-vg2mu]

gen 3 only as unlimited mode - other opions waste of mony you need a lot of generation to make somthing useful:)

[@Unicornidor]

Thank you.

[@CharleyTGriffin]

fr thats why i have 20 gmail accounts

[@vikkiflawith]

very true and something to remember no matter what generator you use and for what purpose.

[@curiousrefuge]

We appreciate your feedback!

[@Siroesosiren]

Very soon for open Ai is 100 years💀

[@curiousrefuge]

What do you mean?

[@johnhawkinshawkins1284]

takes me over 4 hours to generate 100 images in the Mid journ discord toy before I can even be allowed to try 6 or 6.1. When will it reach puberty?

[@curiousrefuge]

If it takes 4 hours then something may be going wrong. If you want to speed it up you can use the repeater "--r" to help.

[@JamesBray-qm8gr-q3w]

Runway does NOT let you try it. They require you to upgrad and pay!

[@leonpeeon]

Not everything in life is for free. This stuff took time and money to develop and costs money to run.

[@curiousrefuge]

Gen3 may not be available for free but you can try many other (including Gen2) for limited credits!

[@Experternas]

holding a red cup in one hand and a blue flower in another is a bad prompt, in another what..its not intuitive for a language model. in the other hand would probably be more fair to use.

[@curiousrefuge]

What would be intuitive to code?

[@Experternas]

@@curiousrefuge to code? what do you mean. Im talking about the language used. the Code if anything needs to intepret the language so "cup in one hand and flower in another" could easily be intepreted as cup in one hand and flower in a third hand. see what i mean by that. the shortcuts native english speaking people have in their natural language isnt nessesarly picked up by a strict language model. in a showcase example you should be proper or it's already dead on arrival.

[@WilliamsSamuel-lz4je]

AI is spreading so fast 😢

[@curiousrefuge]

We agree!

[@Alanx_ai]

It's all great but tired of seeing demos and sameness. Where is the groundbreaking and original content? we're starting to fall into the "everything IS the same" :)

[@vikkiflawith]

Back when I was studying graphic design, when there was no www, my teacher said, it doesn't matter what program you use to create your publication. What matters is the printer you use. I think it's the same thing here. Whatever ai platform you use is only as good as your own creativity and eye for balance, color, etc. You curate your output and work with multiple generations and experiment with prompts to find what you seek. The end result is a reflection of your own skill and creativity and interest in storytelling. AI is just a tool. I think also we should remember that films or tv shows take a long time to make, ai may attempt to remove actors, directors, producers, set designers, sound editors, and composers from the work, that means you have to be all of those things yourself. If it took, say, a year to make a single film you like, how long will it take you doing all of those things, to do the same? A 90 minute film would require 5400 seconds of high quality film, that's about 1080 x 5 seconds of video output, considering the fact that you have to 'retake' scenes multiple times, it's probably over 20,000 generations just for image, never mind dialogue and music. Each generation takes minutes to process and then you have to curate it/watch it, edit it, upscale it, etc. Still, I think it's viable to use these tools to make videos and short films, we just have to be realistic. If it gets to 'push the button and there is your film' it would lose all interest for me as a creator.

[@curiousrefuge]

It's true that storytelling will be the king no matter how great these tools get!

[@sparkplug964]

It doesn’t look like a real dog. The hair is ridiculous, there is no contrast in texture, and it looks like a poorly done Photoshop job by an amateur.

[@strangedays871]

Yeah, it's bad. Looks CGI.

[@OTB2002]

it looks fine lol, stop being a little bitch

[@curiousrefuge]

It's come a long way in just...one year!
