It’s been awhile since I’ve posted much about the advancements of current AI Tools, and although I’ve had some successes in utilizing many of them for projects, we’re still a long way from AI doing ALL the work for producers/content creators. I’ll share some examples from my workflows and take a peek into the near future as these tools develop and become more useful.
Like most of us, I get excited every time I see a “new development” pop up in someone’s feed that’s using a beta version of some AI tool, only to find out that they didn’t just use that software tool to achieve their final results, but rather used an alpha version along with a lot of other tools – and often used as an API in another tool or programming to get the finished look.
As most of my readers already know, I’ve been following this progression of AI tool development for a few years and I also try to implement it wherever possible to produce the results I need for my clients. The above image is from an animation I did (below in the article) that utilized both Generative AI imaging and animation, but also layers of particle effects in Adobe After Effects. So again for me, AI so far is just another tool; albeit both powerful and yet unwieldy. It’s quite the beast to be tamed!
