The project was a studio promo animated short intended to achieve Western CGI production values for the Vietnamese local market • It was fully pre-visualized and animated in 3-D then AI was used as style transfer to create the final render based on a single fully realized frame with 3d fur groomed and full geometry foliage with volumetric light in the background • This was a vast time savings because the single frame took an hour to render • I performed all production tasks • Remote work

This is the third version of this project, using the same basic imagery, but regenerating it with the latest technology to improve the visual quality • The idea is that AI is coming to save us instead of kill us • The original images were generated in 2022 with locally run Stable Diffusion • I have continued to use the original primitive generations as the style reference for the subsequent versions • Creating twin characters whenever the frame has a horizontal aspect ratio was a very common error with the early AI, but I decided to run with it and make it be a motif in the piece • I performed all production tasks
