For this project, I was given the task of taking AI-generated stills and short clips and compositing them for use in the final edit. When this spot was created, these tools were completely untested for production and required a lot of modification and cleanup by hand. My responsibilities were primarily focused on the anime-style segments of the video.
There were many, many assets and shots that were only saved from the cutting room floor by clever compositing and paint-overs by myself and other artists. Working alongside pioneers in stable diffusion, this project was a huge learning experience for myself and for the team as whole. There were some things that just could not be done with AI alone, and it was up to us to figure out what it could and could not do.
