Great video Joey, thanks 👌🏼

Thanks! We'll need to bring LEGOs into VP in the future

@@vp-land amen! 😂😍 My end goal with my channel is to have much more animation/VFX style content. I’m super keen to see where indie VP goes for small creators like me. For now I’m using blender and after effects to the best of my novice ability 😂

Not sure why this isn't touched on but as a member of a small production team I think the most valuable use of NeRF + Gaussian splatting in the context of VP would be to create a reference that can be recreated in a software like Unreal. I think it will be a while before it is good to ship as a direct solution but the opportunity to recreate a 3D environment with a 3D sketch of the location would be invaluable.

@@tomcattermole1844 yes!! I only just learned about Gaussian splatting yesterday! I have tinkered with scanners and not been that happy with the results. I animate in blender and 3D print stuff too. Would be keen if this could save time for some VFX shots. Thanks for the link Joey, it’s added to my watch later list 👌🏼

@@brickthinking I'm guessing you might have tried Luma AI? I've been pretty unimpressed with the drag and drop solutions. You could try Nerf Studio, it's a total pain in the ass to setup but the results have been way better IMO. I'm not very tech-oriented and managed to set it up but worth have a look into if you're hoping for higher fidelity scans.

Is this guy for real? He has a company? Generative ai is not even close to production ready... Can you showcase some examples of how your company created fully functional virtual sets using a.i. exclusively or at least for the most part? Not to mention the loaded question preceding the ridiculous answer. Replacing unreal artists with some basic stock photo generation for backgrounds, truly groundbreaking stuff😮 Hyping video for investors I guess, to show how cutting edge (or should we just call it "a.i") you are.
