ROLE: I used the latest generative AI tools to ideate sci-fi visual concepts for an ad campaign for the Miami Marlins Major League Baseball team, using Maya for rough previs and establishing shots, then detailed images “rendered” using AI style transfer based on mood frames which I authored by text prompting AI. Side by side comparisons of Dall-E, Stable Diffusion, Adobe Firefly, Meta Imagine, and Midjourney using the same inputs.
ROLE: I used AI text to image, AI Image to video, AI audio, and conventional image, video, audio, and VFX editing workflows
Stills: Local Stable diffusion (WebUI) , Photoshop. Video: Kling , PromeAI , Runway , Pixverse , Pika , After Effects. Sound: Suno , Elevenlabs
ROLE: Written, Directed, Art Directed, Edited by Ian Wilmoth. Video generated with Kling and Pixverse AI. Edited with After Effects.
ROLE: Written, Directed, Art Directed, Edited by Ian Wilmoth. Video generated with Kling and MinMax AI. Edited with After Effects.
NOTE: This project incorporates a traditional 3d render I made, which I attempted to animate using AI. I want to clarify that the original render was not made using AI.
