What's up everybody? Mid Journey Fast Hours podcast
episode 45, Rory Flynn, Drew Brucker coming fresh off the Mid
Journey video release. Last episode we went deep, deep,
deep into that one and Mid Journey video is just kind of
blowing people's minds. Pretty well received across the
board. If you haven't dove into video

(00:21):
yet and you haven't been exploring with that or you just
need a little bit of guidance, highly, highly recommend that
last episode. But yeah, man, we've had, we've
had a couple weeks here. I think we took a week off to
kind of digest this. And, and I'm, I'm curious, you
know, with video, like is there any been, has there been
anything surprising or new that's come to mind now that

(00:44):
we've had a little bit more timeto play with it?
Or is it pretty straightforward in your mind in terms of like
what can be done I? Think it's really unique man.
Like I've been finding way more uses for it than I probably
originally thought. Like I was playing with a lot of
different stuff over the last two weeks. 1 was just taking
like mood boards that I had created in not the actual like

(01:06):
feature mood boards or like actual static image boot boards
and animating them. And like some of the complexity
and the animations were like insane.
I was by pretty blown away by that.
And then also more of like the like I was doing like I'm
calling it transformative prompting because I don't know
what else to call it, which was like, take like this image

(01:26):
sounds good of something and turn it into something else,
right? Like where maybe you have like a
more abstract image. And it was like, for example,
I'll probably show this later onin the episode at some point
where it's like I had this abstract image of like a like a
skull and butterfly wings. And then I was like, turn this
into a ballerina and it just like instantly morphed it like
seamlessly. And like it took the, IT didn't

(01:47):
make it look weird, you know, like it, it's sort of like fit
with the way that the image was constructed and took it from
there. So there's been a few things
like that, you know, started playing with, you know, products
for marketing. I'm like, can I just put a
product image in here and then like turn it like, you know, if
it's a like a candle that's scented like a, you know, like
an oranges, can I turn that candle into oranges?

(02:08):
Like for these little stupid marketing assets?
So it's like, it feels like every day it's something new.
Like we know the good stuff, right?
Like we talked about this on thelast episode where it's like,
yeah, the motion's great, the coherence is good, the
creativity is good. It's like, well, where's the
again? Like, where's the end point?
Like where is it not, where is it not functioning well?

(02:28):
But I haven't really honestly, Ihaven't really found much.
The only thing I've been noticing on the downside is
sometimes, like the pacing is a little bit weird.
I don't know if you noticed that.
Yeah, yeah. Sometimes.
Like it's either like really fast when when it doesn't need
to be or tries to like do a little bit too much, which I'd
rather have that than do too little.

(02:49):
So I don't know. Have you been feeling the same
thing or you? I feel like you've been, I've
seen some good, some really interesting stuff coming out of
your page as of recent. Yeah, I mean style code stuff.
Yeah, like style code stuff. I mean, there's, I think like
with this, it, it's just there'sa there's a lot of
experimentation to be had, right?

(03:09):
It's it's like, OK, you've got mid journey images that you're
going to animate. There's all the functionality
within the high and low motion, you know, and like just kind of
testing those for what they are,then trying, you know, more the
manual approach with the coherence and adding things in
and the control there. Then there's the component of
like adding third party images in and like, how does it handle

(03:31):
this? I think, you know, there's,
there's the ability to kind of like take this into a more long
form style and connect a series of things like I haven't gone
that far because just bandwidth.I I just don't have time to do
that. But I would say in the smaller
type projects that I'm doing, like, again, pretty easy to do,

(03:53):
not overwhelming, pretty straightforward, you know, and I
think it, it, it welcomes, you know, people experienced or not
right into the fold of, of creating videos in an, in an
uncomplicated way. And so I think like those are,
those are sort of the key thingsthat still resonate with me

(04:14):
after we've kind of had this tool for a while.
I'm still loving the explore page for videos.
I, I probably haven't spent a ton of time here, but like I, I
love looking through this in thesame way that I loved looking
through the explore page early on when we first started using
mid journey. It's like really kind of like

(04:34):
filling the gas just like, oh shit, like didn't even think
about that kind of animation yet.
So it's just, there's so many images we've created
historically. Now.
How much time do we have, you know, to, to kind of like go
into each of these, like maybe different styles of images and,
you know, different stories we're trying to tell.
But I think like just in general, I love looking at this.

(04:55):
And then I've, I've loved, you know, just kind of creating, you
know, more, I would just say like more of the smaller scale
stuff. Like the abstract stuff, which
has been a little bit or the theheavily, you know, sort of
design focus stuff that just I know is not going to be great
with some of the other image or video generators, right.

(05:15):
Like I just like it's so, you know, it's weird.
I don't know if you're doing this like I've also just so
everyone knows I've topped up three times this month already.
So I just keep giving the journey money because I can't,
you know, it's like I get to theI get into an idea and once you
once you like go past the threshold, you hit the, you hit

(05:36):
like the, the extra credit threshold real quick.
So it's I've been like sort of noticing that I select images
differently for video on mid journey than I do on other tools
where I'm like. Tell me, tell me about that.
I just want to see like this one, I might not, I might not
throw into video, right? Because I'm like, I know this
isn't going to work. OK, I know, I know it's not

(05:56):
going to be able to handle it. I know it's not going to do what
I want it to do because it's that's too abstract or that's
too outrageous. But here I'm like, maybe the
weird ones are the better ones because the simple ones, it's
like I can take out anyone. It's like it's kind of like
which ones are the ones that I think only mid journey can
handle. Yeah.
Sort of select what I'm doing orwhat video I'm trying to

(06:18):
generate differently, but I don't know if I don't know if
that's a a problem that everyonehas, but that's sort of
something where I've been finding a little bit different
lately going back to my old stuff and being like, oh,
totally forgot how insane this was.
Let's try this you. Know yeah, but yeah, I think
that's a good point. Like there's one interesting
thing here too, right, like withthe like, let me go back.

(06:44):
Let me let me find maybe this one like this one.
I you know, this is not the original prompt up here, right.
And so like, you know, it's justlike the like the first one.
I might even just kind of hit auto and see what happens.
And that's that's kind of what Idid here.

(07:05):
And then by the time I got here,it was like, OK, I would need to
provide extra direction to make sure that it's going to go into
here right. So that's when I got into the
manual mode. And then same with this right.
You're not going to get that unless you prompt for that it it
is kind of interesting, though, like when you choose to extend
right 'cause it's like, OK, let me let me extend right.

(07:28):
And now like, let's just say it's this this one.
So you you know, you almost haveto like take out yeah, what you
originally had and then have like a net new prompt unless
it's again, I think it really just depends on what you're
prompting. But for for me, a lot of what
I've animated has been like moreof like a generalized prompt
because most of the time I've just done it with S ref so I'm

(07:49):
taking like that existing promptwhich is pretty short and a
little bit ambiguous and then I'm having to take that out and
then provide you know something that's much more specific.
So that part of it I guess is maybe just a little bit of
getting used to, but in general,like same, pretty much same
sentiments as I had before around a lot of this stuff, you
know? Here's the interesting thing

(08:11):
with that I've found I've had a lot more fun letting mid journey
take the initial pass at it. So like doing, you know, auto
high, auto low, seeing where it goes.
And then like, oh, that gave me an idea.
Let me take it this way. You know, like the cow, if you
didn't do anything and maybe youput, you know, motion high in
there auto problems and like thecow started like going up into

(08:32):
the the UFO without you sort of directing it.
You can then start to play with it from that point.
So to me it's just like a good jump off point.
Like let's see what Mid Journey thinks this image is going to
do. And then that's exactly what I
take with this is I ran that a bunch.
I think I ran that two or three times both on low and high auto
just to see like different interpretations of what it would

(08:52):
do with it. And then I think that's enough
to really tell me, OK, am I going to get anything that I
kind of want to get after running that a few times?
And then if not, then that wouldbe a cue for me to probably go
ahead and prompt it manually. But I, I agree, like I like to
run it auto 1st and kind of get an interpretation of what it's
picking up. And then I can, for that next 4

(09:12):
seconds, I can prompt something maybe more specific.
And the coherence on the manual stuff's been pretty good, you
know, and it's been pretty good.It's, it's not perfect, but
it's, it's been maybe better than I thought it was going to
be. I found that broad concept
prompting still works here for video.
Like I think there's this over indexing.

(09:34):
Everyone's just like has to be natural language to describe.
But like it still seems like youcan do that, like the old V5
style of prompting where just like throw some keywords in and
let it ride. I've been doing that a lot,
especially with like it's been handling mood and emotion really
well. Like if I say like this type of
mood, you know, like peace and serenity or you know, aggressive

(09:56):
or whatever, like it handles that and like under seems to
like understand emotion in some way, shape or form the way that
it does for images as well, which to me is I love that, you
know, video does that. Not going to throw shade on
anyone else. Like video does that really well
too. Can take like sort of abstract
mood and like apply it to the image aesthetic or the video

(10:18):
aesthetic. But like some of this stuff, you
know, I like, I've been liking motion low more for like shots
like this where you just want some, some character movement
right? Without like sort of losing it,
if that makes sense 'cause sometimes the motion high can be
too fast. Like you might just sort of like

(10:38):
RIP through a scene and it looks.
Like this one fucking caught me off guard 'cause this I think
was the first video animation I ran for this image and it you
just like took off with scuba fins and I was like wait.
Hold up. Yeah.
I love when I love when the generators think something's
underwater when it's not, and itjust, like, immediately throws
it into like, underwater mode like this.

(10:58):
Like, I think those are like, you know, Coral or like Anemone
or however you say it. Anemone.
Yeah. Anemone was just Finding Nemo
and then just runs with it. Oh, that's cool.
Yeah, we were doing that. Remember that summer we were.
So we were doing this event summer camp, and I was just kind
of playing around the idea of like if you had sort of like

(11:19):
camp, camp counselors, like huddling over you, like telling
you to wake up kind of thing. I was thinking there was more
like hazing, you know, like put your ass up.
That too. This is.
That's cool though. Like look at the radial blur
that it kept there. Yeah.
Even as the camera moves, like you still see the radial blur
around the ring, you know, basically around the outside of

(11:42):
their heads, right? Starting basically like at their
chin in the background. Like that's, that's super cool
that it keeps stuff like that. Like I love, you know, you know
me. I like those small little
details that make me excited. Yeah, that was like a that was a
cool one. But there were, you know, there
were a bunch of notes on video too, right.
So let's like pick this back up to on in terms of some of the

(12:06):
things that we saw earlier in interms of like what we reported
on last pod, but also some of the things that were dropped
yesterday on office hours. And there's some interesting
things here, right? Most of the office hours notes
from yesterday, so we're shooting this on Thursday are

(12:28):
around video. So start and end frame features
in dev for better control. Cool.
They talked about the looping functionality being added.
So video loops. Sweet.
Like that? Motion quality improvements
underway. So that's a long term project,
this one little bit of a bummer,but I think we can handle it
based on what they did for us with the download for social

(12:50):
thing. But video Opscaler delayed by
one month. Turbo mode coming.
This is professional Eddie videofeatures, huh?
And also I think everyone just, you know, Drew and I are going
into into this completely cold, not listening to office hours.
So we're just, we're reacting. We both, yeah, we both missed
it. This is this is interesting

(13:12):
because I was, I was looking at the notes and I was like, oh,
OK. Native HD image to video mode
ready for testing. 20 acts more expensive than standard, likely
limited to mega plans designed for professional film production
use cases. Higher quality output justified
per projects with substantial budgets.

(13:34):
So here's, here's something, here's something interesting,
right. Like on the 480P side of things.
Maybe because it has to, maybe because it's less resolution.
We're getting so much better stuff because I was talking to
going back again to, I don't know, like 20 episodes when we
had Min on here who is testing, you know, Sora, you know, I went
back to him the other day because I was trying to do

(13:55):
something on Sora and I was like, was the secret the whole
time to use 480 instead of 720 or 1080?
He goes, yeah, I thought I told you that.
I was like, what? Oh.
Interesting. Why?
Why is that from like an artifact standpoint of like
picking up? Might just be the coherence
because it's not so focused on like everything being super

(14:15):
sharp and defined and it can sort of like curve, you know,
its its efforts in a way where it focuses on the actual
coherence in the movement versuslike making it crystal clear
clarity and picking up on every single detail.
So like that's what I was havingthis discussion the other day
with someone like I, I will gladly sacrifice and utilize

(14:35):
480P if I get what I'm want or Iget like the motion or like the
effect that I'm looking for. And then I can upscale it with,
you know, Topaz, which has been great.
And I know that's. What we talked about, that's
what we talked about last week too.
So that, that was a good, that was a good point.
And also something I've been sort of like hearing across the
board from other people that that do a lot of video is

(14:55):
they're taking that into to something like Topaz and just
upscaling it there. So yeah, if you really need it,
you got it. But then, you know, you also
have the the nice option, which I don't know, they did they add
this since we talked, I think so, but it's like you can go in
here and download for social andthen this puts it into a higher

(15:17):
res just for social. So it's not getting compressed.
Yeah, there's that. And then there's that little
that little button next to the heart.
I think it does the same thing if I'm.
Download raw video. Yeah, which?
Is Oh yeah, this is down. OK, so, so now this is default
download video for social media,which before I think it was just

(15:37):
downloading it, yeah. So I've been downloading the raw
files for when I'm using in Topaz.
So I think that just it makes iteasier to edit.
I don't know what the personallydon't know what was going on
there. Sounded like people were having
some compression issues, but not.
I'm not overly technical enough to have looked into that.
And me either, yeah, me either just yeah, I don't want to have

(16:00):
to think that technically. About it.
That's too much. So you know, all that's I mean,
this is really interesting. Yeah.
'Cause if this drops and this where where did they say this
was at? They said this was ready for
testing. So if that if my Spidey mid

(16:22):
journey senses are correct, which they're often not but
unless I'm traveling then I knowthey're they go up like tenfold.
But like this to me sounds like 2 weeks. 3 weeks.
I'm really surprised to see the word professional film
production in there like right, considering the lawsuit and

(16:44):
everything and seeing like, oh, we want to get into the.
Yeah, it wasn't too long ago, was it?
Yeah, I mean, you know that Thisis why I don't know if it's just
like they have to execute on theroad map and continue to do this
while they're in litigation. But it's also sort of
interesting that this is where the direction is and also as to
when the law, the timing of the lawsuit, you know, like very,

(17:07):
very interesting now seeing thispiece as to where, you know, all
these, you know, pieces of information can start to fit
together. So you always it makes you
wonder a little bit. It does, it does.
I mean like I'm really interested to see that.
What is the professional one look like?
What does that look like 'cause that's what we're really, I

(17:28):
mean, if we're already thinking of mid journey favorably, what
does that do? 20X more expensive though.
I mean, that's like. I know, I know which that's the
that's the caveat. But they did talk about that
earlier, right? They're like, hey, look, maybe
we do two options here, right? One that is ridiculously

(17:49):
expensive, but higher, higher quality and one that is more of
a, you know, gateway for everybody to use it.
And they, they kind of talked about that in office hours, but
then they didn't, you know, they, it's crazy because then
they don't really give that caveat when they released video.
It's just like, here's our video.
And so people are judging them based on that.

(18:10):
And that's not even the higher end model.
Yeah, and the video is still great.
So that's what I'm saying is like, I feel like what the fuck
is going to happen with that? And how long away is are we?
Is that 2 weeks? Because if that's 2-3 weeks,
that's wild. There goes my bank account
again. Thanks mid journey for that.

(18:31):
That's I mean, look, the it's they said it's weird that they
said they could do it and he waslike they found it feels like
they found a happy medium where it was like we could make this
really good and it's going to bereally expensive or we could
make it more accessible. So I think the 480P and the
accessible side of it where it'sat right now, available to
everyone on every plan, right? Like that's a great entry point.

(18:54):
It's so much better than launching with like the here's
extra $120.00 a month, you know what I mean?
Quality model. So I think they did that one
right. And like you get the, it's
almost like the the PLG motion behind of it.
It's just like, hey, just get the product in people's hands
first, Yeah. And then you you know people
will justify the spend after too.

(19:16):
I I mean I'm way more likely to pay more money now that I know
how it works. Right, even though we.
Do it. We were going to do it
regardless, just 'cause, you know, this is what we do.
But I mean now without knowing what's possible, I'm like, yeah,
of course I want to push it further.
Like it's probably majority of the of the user base as well.

(19:37):
I mean that so so bro, I can't wait to see that.
Then then you got so just wrapped up video updates here.
Here was the last part of it, which you and I were just
talking about quickly before we jumped on, which is audio and
sound, right? People are asking the the
obvious questions of, Hey, can you, you, you start to add in
the capability for speech or sound effects or what have you,

(19:59):
right. Just thinking about it from like
maybe this, this VO3 standpoint,this is, this is the 5 minutes
of the call that I caught, whichwas they're considering low
quality sound effects for implementation, which sounded
like they could pull that off. I mean, relatively easy.
And and it wouldn't be this thisdrawn out thing.

(20:21):
And what they mean by that is like ambient sounds, so like
more of the passive sounds that would take place, right?
So if you've got somebody in a field that may be the wind or
you know, stream and maybe a water or they said traffic,
footsteps, things like that. And I think you said look like
the reality is things like footsteps kind of hard to match

(20:41):
up manually. So like even something like
that, even even if it is just the sound effects would go a
long way. It's sound is hard.
I mean, every, every time I try to do it, I'm just like, I end
up spending the most time because it, it, people will for,
I feel like people will forgive like some of the video or image
side of things. But like, you can't forgive bad

(21:03):
sound, like bad sound, just, it ruins the whole thing, right?
Like if it's mismatched footsteps of someone running,
like you'd, your brain immediately picks up on that as
that sucks, right? It's a, but if someone like, you
know, same video of if, like thestandard video generator thing,
if someone's running, like sometimes they do like 2 steps
with the same foot, you know, like, are the legs like sort of

(21:23):
morphed together? You sort of forgive that, right?
It's, it's, if it's really poor sound, you're like, yeah, this
ruins it. So I, I've always found the
this, the background stuff to bethe hardest, you know, to really
like match the atmospheric quality of the sound to make it
well, I think. Like to your point, like the
footsteps thing specifically because the way that I would go
about doing that if I were trying to do it manually right

(21:46):
now, because I'm not doing anything inside of like Adobe
Suite to try to match up sounds,I'm just not doing that.
I would probably just go into cap cut and see if I could find
footsteps and hopefully the cadence is aligned with the
cadence in the video. Yeah, Because otherwise,
otherwise you're going to manually have to adjust the

(22:06):
speed of the of, you know, maybethe video to line with the sound
effect or vice versa, right? Like there's some like thing
other ways that you could probably do it, but it doesn't
feel easy and it probably it doesn't feel like a perfect
match either, right. So if they were to do something
like that, and I think footstepsis the perfect example, that
would, that would be great. You know, and it, it's a good

(22:29):
bridge too, because I do think the speech thing is just going
to be harder to figure out. And that's what they sort of
alluded to here is just like no speech synthesis planned
initially. It'll it'll happen, but it's I,
I have no idea when and I have no idea how long.
I mean, there's only one really one to two tools that have

(22:49):
figured that out. So, you know, like, it's, it's
tough, but like, if you go like,if you go back to that page,
just talking about the sound, right, like that, that lion,
right. You look at that.
And then if you've never tried to create sound for a video, you
realize how much it sucks when you just do like, all right, let
me just get like a lion growling.
But the lion growling is isolated.

(23:10):
So it just sounds like a lion. It doesn't sound like, oh,
there's echoes that are bouncingoff the walls in the, you know,
in the shopping mall. You don't have like the the hum
or like the buzz from like the iridescent lights like you don't
have to as. A background you gotta layer in
sound like more than one sound. That's kind of what I'm learning
too. Like when I'm adding when I when
I've started to do more of theselittle videos with sound effects

(23:31):
is at any given time. And if, if you.
So we're gonna go off, we're gonna go off the rails on this.
But like, if you meditate, there's a, there's a mindfulness
part of meditation where it's, you're focused on the sound
around you. Yeah.
And when you focused on that, ifyou've ever done that, there's
almost always at least two or three sounds going on at any
given time. Oh, so many.

(23:51):
Layers, almost two or three, if not more, just depending on
where you're at, right? So even just now in this office
can hear the air conditioner. I can hear slight things
outside. I can hear, you know, the
plumbing system here and there. I can hear my dog walk in
footsteps, you know, faint, like, So to your point, right?
Like, yeah, you got to kind of like layer those things if

(24:13):
you're going to do it manually. It sounds weird, right?
Like you've definitely done I I know I've done it where it's
like or even like the depth thatlion might not be in the
foreground. It might be a little bit further
away, but if it sounds like. I play with the decibels, yeah.
Like there's there's respect to sound engineers, man.
Like they are awesome. And like when you get in there
and realize how much it screws up a video if you don't have it

(24:34):
done well, like like there's there's nothing to go too far
off topic here, but like if anyone has seen Dave Clark stuff
on, you know, the the shorts that he makes on X or on
LinkedIn or whatever his I always comment on my did Yeager
animation is awesome. I know you can do that, but the
sound is killer. Like I put the headphones in and
I'm just like it's all synced and it's all crisp and it's all

(24:57):
remastered. It sounds like I could put this
on my my sound bar on my TV and this would sound like it's
cinematic. This one, like I look at this
one. Yeah, this would be a perfect
thing where there are so many things going on here sound wise.
Yes, the sludge of the shoe, thewater, this you're in this city,

(25:19):
so. You've.
Got people talking, you've got cars honking, you've got there's
just so many things going on here to think about.
You might have wind or rain in that situation as well.
Like there's there's a lot of layers to to bake in there,
right? I mean, like it's until you've
tried it, you don't, you don't necessarily I guess understand

(25:39):
how crappy like one layer of sound sounds until you've
listened to it. And like that doesn't sound real
at all. But did it's, it's I'm for them
regardless. Like if they can add some of
that, like at least a layer, like I'm cool.
Like if they can match an atmospheric sound, like
depending on the depth of the character or whatnot, like that

(26:00):
would be awesome. Like that one over on the right
with the person walking in the OR in like the big hall, right,
like over on the right, like if it can match like footsteps
there where it's not sounding like it's blasting me in the
years where I know there's depthand like that's all it gave me.
I could play with the rest of it, you know, like that's if I'm
asking for anything that's sort of, I guess that's sort of what

(26:21):
I'm looking for. Yeah, that would so that means
sounds like that could be like afeels like that's a good next
step. Yeah.
You know, like that. That feels like a nice step into
it. And then you could, yeah, you
could focus on the speech later down the road, but.
I got a question for you on thison the explore page.
Let's do this in real time, likeif you click on a video.

(26:43):
Yeah. Does the smart search work the
same way with video or does it just take you to?
It's not. There's not an option here all.
Right, because I hadn't done that.
Yeah, interesting. Yeah, not an option there.
Let me see. If you were to go in, I mean,
you could still technically likeclick into the profile, right?

(27:06):
So I mean, you could see somebody's stuff here if they've
got it. Not in stealth mode,
Interesting, but kind of want this.
But I did notice this. I think if you click videos,
it's going to bounce me out of this.
Yeah, see that? So it doesn't show.
So let me let me just let's confirm this.

(27:26):
So if I click in here and I wantto see what other videos this
person's created, it's not showing me videos.
Got it. Just showing me.
Just. Images.
Images. Unless they've got stealth on
their videos, but I don't think that's the case.
I think it's just yeah, so you click videos, it bounced you
out. So yeah, no smart search on the
video. And then doesn't look like you

(27:47):
can see other videos that that creators created.
I did see something though, right here.
This was interesting. So a couple more updates here.
Office hours related user profiles coming to the website.
Cool. So I mean, technically there
already are user profiles in thesense that you have a name
associated, right? And just kind of what we were

(28:08):
looking at, like you can click into somebody's work if it's not
hidden, right? Like, so here's a like this
person's just got one thing thatshows up here, right?
They've certainly created more than one image, but that's all
they have that shows up here. But yeah, let's see.

(28:28):
But I'm, I, I, I don't know whatthat means, right?
Like from a profile's perspective, what, what does
that mean? Are are we going to be able to
see like? Might be a social.
More of like a social profile kind of thing where I can see
maybe how many images somebody'screated in total and the tokens
that they use or the styles thatthey have, right?
Like I think there is something very cool there.

(28:51):
Again, this goes back to one of those core pillars that we
talked about with mid journey community unmatched.
They they were, you know, there was this request a long time
ago. I remember this from like, man,
this must have been V5. But like people are asking
about, hey, like, are we going to build out like a social like
a profile thing? And at that time it was no, it

(29:12):
was like, no, because we don't want to turn this into a social
media sort of like feel. And I wonder if that has shifted
or if it's this is just a different interpretation of it
because that would be interesting.
Like, I think what I would want to see if I were thinking about
that is it would be cool to understand the types of images

(29:35):
maybe that people create, maybe top tokens that they use could
be interesting. Maybe even maybe there's a style
explorer tied into that, like interms of like S refs that they
like to use. I don't know, like I'm just
trying to think of like aggregated information that
would be helpful or would inspire my creative process to
like build on, right. So I wonder if.

(29:57):
It's like a portfolio, right? Like could just be like a
portfolio, like add 50 images toyour portfolio or something like
that, like that feels like that's how it might start, you
know? Oh my God.
Look at that. Look at these.
These are hilarious dogs like this.
Oh my God, these are creepy. Look at this.
Well, that's. Like my what I get out of my

(30:17):
personal my personalization code.
This is this if your personalization code had an
identity. Yes, that's it.
That's a good one. I like that it's just no person.
Do you see that one that had thenegative prompts on no person?
Which one? Where did you see that?
The one that you, the one that this.
Yeah, that. Yeah, no person.

(30:39):
Unglued photography. What is unglued photography?
I don't know. Run that though.
Oh, we got to see what that is. And let's let's do, let's I'm, I
want to, I want to do a couple things.
Let's do this. Let's do.
What unfurled tongues want what?Is this what?

(31:05):
Is this Emmervark? Because this is this is right up
our alley. Chaos 50 We don't even need to
do weird, but we could let's. Nightmare fuel.
Let's run the Oh my God. Yo I think I did run that as a
prompt recently. Nightmare fuel.
I think we did it with my personalization code.
Did we on on one of these episodes?

(31:26):
No. What was that Homestead, that
one Homesteader? Well, that was Homesteader too,
but we definitely did some. I think we did Nightmare Fuel
also. Let's let's do it.
Sorry guys, we're going off the rails here a little.
Bit. And This is why you guys watch.
Photography is right. No idea.
Unhinged. Is that what we're talking
about? Maybe.

(31:48):
Let's do Chaos 0 and 50. All right, let's see what we're
getting here. Unglued Photography.
Kind of weird. Oh boy.
All right, Unglued. OK, so here we're starting with.

(32:09):
Oh, you got your mood boards on?Oh what?
Why are they on? I didn't even have these things
on. Common problems here.
Bro Oh my God I gotta run this again.
Also, have you noticed subtle update?
I don't know if you noticed this, but if you try, let's just

(32:32):
do it live for the show. Delete the prompt real quick
you. Don't want me to run this.
No, say delete it and just push up on the keyboard because it's
been pulling my permutations in on.
No way. Yeah.
Which I was I think. There's no way.
There you go. Oh my God.
We're back. Dude, that's, that's major.

(32:56):
Yeah. If you know, you know.
Yeah, that was a huge pain. So I noticed that the other day
and I was like, oh, that's, that's nice.
Shut your mouth. Oh my God, that's amazing.
I wonder, can I run this many permutations?
Let's see, I. Think yeah, you should be good.
That might God let me. There we go.

(33:16):
Please tell me I turned off. Yeah.
OK. All right, All right, now let's
now let's get into this. Yeah.
Let's for real. For real.
Unglued photography is. I guess I could take my pro, my
personalization off too completely.
And yeah, maybe it was the no person that I mean that he also
had. Nightmare.
No person. Yeah, or.

(33:38):
Something but. But this guy prompted.
Let's see, let's do no person. What was the other thing that he
had in there? It was like Crippler or
something like that. It was, it was weird.
It was all in the prompt. But I'm going to take, I wonder
if I should I take my personalization off Facebook?

(33:58):
Yeah. All right, let's run that too.
So unglued. Yeah.
So, I mean, all these do have people.
Pretty much this one's. That's cool.
Dope, yeah. And then this one is cool.
Could be cool if this ghost is doing something.
So unglued. Interesting.

(34:20):
What's that one with the with the purple coat on?
What's going on in that image? There's like a head of flowers.
Yeah. Interesting.
Flowers, baby, what is going on here?
I. Don't know that that looks like
something for my. This is unglued.
That's what we're talking. About.
I mean, we got long leg hair matched with all kinds of crazy.

(34:41):
Yeah, that's now that my friend.That's Mid Journey's dark side
sheep always. Let's see what else we got here.
All right now. We're yeah.
So it's got, it's got a little bit of darkness to it, which
definitely what I would have expected except for this one.
But this is Chaos 50, so OK. You never know what you're going

(35:03):
to get at that 50 range. Yeah, because freckles, that's
that. That's like reminiscent of 5.2.
Right now, this one, yeah, it really is.
I like that though. I would screw with that.
You know me. This is where we at Bubble.
Wrap head. Whatever it is, what is this I

(35:25):
gotta see? Come on now.
That is one thing I have noticedthough.
What? When I've run something with
permutations, even though I should technically be able to
very subtle and very strong on top because it can keep so many

(35:46):
in queue like I'll be meeting that threshold and it still
won't let me do it. So for example, let's let's wait
till this gets to like 1718 because technically I should be
able to run this these very subtle and very strong before
this finishes. So well, maybe it maybe it did

(36:08):
let me, maybe that's just me because I've been running a lot
of those S ref permutations and then I'll run those and then I'm
I'm trying to like settle some stuff and at the same time it's
like not letting me. So I thought it might just be
the permutations, but maybe not.That's cool.
Yeah, there's some cool stuff that's cool comes up.

(36:29):
With this might be like this. This might be like one of those
cool ones to run like especiallylike maybe even with the S ref
stuff just seeing what happens. I'm I'm interested to see what
the. No, Oh my God, there.
We go. What is that?
That's why we run on glued. I'm scared, what is that?

(36:49):
All right, I see that we get into the no person stuff coming
up. Dude, that's I mean, I like that
too. That's fire.
OK, here we nightmare fuel, baby.
Let's go. Oh damn, there's some sick stuff
like stranger. Things.
This is yeah, this is creepy as fuck.
I like that happy face. Yeah.

(37:11):
It creeps me the hell out. Oh, digging that, that's cool.
Very, very hazy. Look at this.
What's the What's the haunted like?
Little Mermaid fish? There you go.
This guy. Dude, I actually like that.
See, I like that that deer or that stag.

(37:35):
You just came across that one. Like I might play with that one
as like an S wrap to see if I could like move that into like
other characters. We don't have to do that.
But it's like, that's where my mind goes with that one, like
having just like someone made oflike Stardust.
I wish I could like, I wish we could like, wish I could give
you images, for example, that I don't like 'cause I would never

(37:55):
I, I wouldn't do anything with that is my point.
But but you would. So it's like, I don't know, it
just kind of feels like a waste if no one, you know?
Yeah. This is kind of crazy.
I do like. I'd fuck with that.
Oh my goodness. Yikes.

(38:17):
Also, wait, hold on, go back a few.
Where's that really low res one,like hit hit, you know, auto
motion high on that one on the video, Like I got to see what it
does. Like these are these are the
type of things that I'm saying like I wouldn't put this into
another. I like where.
I like where, yeah, I like whereyour head's at.
But I wanted. My God, that's a good point.
I kind of want to see what what the fuck's going on with some of

(38:37):
these in motion would be crazy. Right.
It's like a cheesy 80s movie. I was just about to say that.
Yeah, yeah, like almost like Teen Wolf, but yeah, instead of
a wolf, it's this fucking thing.Scream.
Yeah, some of these, you know, like that one.
I mean, like, what is it? What is it going to do with

(38:57):
that? You know, like I would never put
that into another one because I know it's just going to be
wasted credits. But we failed to submit
undefined. It's a little bit too gory.
Damn. Are we?
Oh, we're not even in the no person yet.
We're not. Yeah, we're not even there yet.
That's why I say I've ran so many permutations.

(39:20):
OK, so we're almost there. Let's see what we got
interesting and still get to your pink and blue with your.
Personal. Profile code.
Yep, always. Always.
I almost forgot about that because I've been so I've been

(39:41):
so heavy in the S rafts. I almost forgot about my crappy
personalization. Is so used to it.
OK, so this is not now, Now we're here this, but this is
with personalization off. So now we're just looking at
unglued photography for what it is, no personalization attached,
no person. So I'm wondering what we see

(40:01):
here. OK, so this is 0, this is Chaos
50. So these are going to be a
little bit more extreme and differentiated.
Here we go into Exp 15. All right.
OK. Interesting.
Not not what I was expecting. Not what I was expecting.

(40:26):
Thought it was going to be way more.
Like, not that based. That's kind of nuts.
Like that blue color? Here we go.
All so cool. Fun stuff, you know.
All so cool. Yeah, so random.
I I, I wasn't expecting to see like this and like the leaf on

(40:46):
the rock by the river, it's like, OK, what is that?
So I wonder what it interprets unglued as just I was thinking
it was more of the horror thing,but it's not exclusively that.
And then let's get into, let's just quickly go up to nightmare
fuel here. See what we're getting with
that? It has a always has a very

(41:09):
distinguished look for for horror.
I always find for whatever reason, yeah, horrors that like
if it's that just like trophy, like if that makes sense, like
where you can sort of just like,you know, sharp teeth like.
Oh my. God, that's.
This is, Yeah. What is this?

(41:30):
That's that's the dark side. Yo, what is this?
It's not going to be. Ours.
Oh my God, dude, Oh my God. It's so creepy.
This is this is personalization off.
So I am curious now to run. But anyway, yeah, this is yeah,

(41:51):
check some video real quick. Yeah.
Let's go. Yeah, let's go.
Let's go up to the videos here. This is the ghost.
OK, We should we should put thisguy in motion.
Come on. What are we doing with that?

(42:11):
Let's see what the let's get into the I'm really curious
about the the low res stuff because sometimes it like auto
corrects it when it's like that.Sometimes like the the Super
sort of like low res stuff doesn't necessarily translate
like it'll turn into like a 3D asset.
It's the only time I've seen it sort of transform anything like
outside of its style. Oh.

(42:34):
My God. Yeah.
Those are fucking nuts. OK, here we go.
Here. We go.
So we got like a found footage, like it looks like it's like
it's submarine. Turned into a scoldy in there.
Did it? Yeah, look at that.
Interesting all. Right.

(42:54):
So this is motion high. See like sometimes it just wants
to turn into like a 3D. Like, yeah, that's one of those.
Remember we were kind of talkingabout like patterns that we're
seeing with some of this. Like this was one of them where
there's like almost like a threequarter turn.
Then there's the other one whereit almost does the full
rotation, like this one. Cool how it turns it into a

(43:19):
skull though, because that's where that's when I was like,
oh, what's oh, we could see that.
That looks like some. That's some creepy shit.
That's some bottom of the ocean stuff right there.
Yeah, that's what this looks like.
But also the fact that it's turning it into a skull like
then I would probably play with that.
It didn't run the. It didn't run the motion low.
It's too it's too gory. It's creepy as fuck.

(43:44):
It's just again, which other ones did we run here?
We ran this one. See, I'm always interested in
how it's going to, like, interpret something that's
weird. Like that?
Yeah, 'cause it's already in motion too.
Yeah, it's doing like high framerate camera stuff.

(44:09):
This one's cool. Like that's.
That's pretty wild. Wouldn't expect that, but I
might play with that. Same thing here.
What is going on there? There we go.
All right. That one's kind of, yeah, that
one, that one I get. That one's too much.

(44:34):
There's the rotation. Yeah, it's got like some
programmed motions into. It yes, yes, it's.
Like when it doesn't know what to do That's cool.
Yeah. Keeps that blue perfect like.
Yeah, that's pretty dope. Motion low.

(44:58):
Motion high. That looks so now.
That look at that one this the all these movements pretty nice.
Yeah, like everything, even the the flexing of the shoulder
muscle. Yeah, there's not, there's no
like little glitchy, there's no glitchiness in there.

(45:18):
That's a. That's a good.
Example, like you could see likeall the muscle movements.
Yeah, yeah, that's cool. This is a really good example
cuz even right? OK, so let's starting at the
beginning of this too. Look at the way this person's.
So you think this is the white of the eye?
Yeah. Or at least that's how I

(45:39):
interpreted it at 1st. And I think it it has
interpreted that. But these are like the kind of
things I see. And I'm like, I'm wondering how
it's going to pick it up. Is it going to?
And usually it does a little bitof both, but this one, it's like
it kind of tricks you, but it works.
The white eyelid. Yeah.
So it's like, OK, you know, so then you have that whole
movement, no problem there. Smooth to your point, like the

(46:01):
arm, the definitions and the arms and the shoulders.
None of this these all feel likenatural movements you would
actually make even the head evenlike the head tilt and look back
down. That stuff I have to prompt for
most of the time, you know, likethat's because it just wants to
like doesn't want to do it unless you say it on some of the
other platforms, but. Like, see, that one's not bad,

(46:23):
but you can see right here it kind of falls off because it's
like, this feels weird. Well, it did.
The white eyelid, the white eyelids on all of them.
Interesting. See about this one.
Yeah, like you need that. Rubbing of the knees right?
Like that's that's not somethingyou typically see with like.
The right and then the the rub. Now the hand movement here is

(46:45):
awesome. Yeah, it's this, it's it's this
almost like I know I'm a robot facial expression.
I don't know how what to call itbut it's like it's like this
facial expression on the image like the subject's face where it
like knows it's not real. Like, look, it's like, oops.
Oh, I'm a I'm a robot. OK, Yeah.

(47:07):
So weird. I mean, it's, it's, it's oddly,
it's oddly natural. Like there's your programmed 3D
rotation movement. Which this one's great because
sometimes what you also get is it'll swing and then it'll swing
back and it's like, yeah, just go all the way around.
Just keep going. Just keep.

(47:30):
Going also also good, let's go like I'm just going to back up
and so we can look at these quickly and that we don't have
to look at them 1 by 1. So this is motion low, OK and it
so it did a rotation on all fourof these.
Yeah, sometimes, like when it looks like these product shots,
it just like immediately goes into rotation mode.

(47:51):
So I think that the, you know, even like if you're trying to
like reverse engineer that it's like, OK, there's no background.
So it looks like it was shot in the studio.
The product is already in mid air, right?
Which those two things are very indicative of product
photography. To your point.
Right. And so it's not a coincidence
then that you're getting 4 rotations in my opinion, right?

(48:13):
There's some connective tissue there.
Same with this. All these are rotating.
It's not like the shoe's walking, you know?
But if you say that it does do that often times, you know,
like, just like mushrooms growing, you might have to
describe it a little bit. Yeah, that's the that's where
that's where it gets interestingbecause you want to see what
it's going to do first and then sort of take it from there.

(48:36):
Right. This is the weirdest.
Thing I've ever. Oh.
This really is nightmare fuel. Yes, that's it.
That's the that's the most. Oh my God these these two right
here are fucking tripping me out.
Yeah, real weird. I.
Know. I know what everyone's thinking.

(48:57):
I'm not going to say it because we're on YouTube, but I know
what. Everyone's thinking about, OK,
it wasn't just me. Yeah, it's like, yeah, that's
looking a little too this. Like this could be a fun one.
Maybe not like this exact image,but like that idea of like
something over, somebody's trapped in something, somebody's
got something, you know, like they're trying to wrestle

(49:18):
something off like that. That's kind of a cool animated
movement. Like this one here is kind of
fun. Just went all the way to the
left. You know, I feel like that would
be a perfect extend. Like that plastic wrap is the
way that it's being sort of jostled and all sort of
interacting with itself that can.

(49:41):
Moon in there yo. Oh my God, that's funny.
I ran these twice, OK. That's pretty good, that one
where the woman's face pops. Out.
Yeah, yeah. Again, like you see some of the
stuff, you're just like what? Yeah, so, I mean, there's some,

(50:01):
you know, some interesting stuff.
Yeah. Oh my God.
Yeah. Creepy.
There's a few. There's a few that I have that
are that are like kind of interesting in what it did,
which I was like kind of trying to break it, which is like
these. I had these images of like a
face that I had sort of like holes in the face, but like saw

(50:23):
through to the background, if that makes sense to see how it
was going to look. And they just took it and ran
with it and mimic the background.
I was like, this is there's so much complexity in that a lot of
the other ones would just sort of like auto fix it and be like,
oh, no, that's not what it's supposed to be.
Like. Let me make it a real face, like
a human face, not keep it the way that it is.
Actually let me let me pull it up real quick.

(50:44):
I'll show you. What I'm talking about, Yeah,
pull it. Up this one so everyone knows
what I'm actually talking about here.
Curious to see what's on this leaderboard.
Still generate multiple angle angles the same subject.
So this is what like kind of crazy that it's looking through

(51:05):
the face, right? And like seeing the background.
This one even has like depth. Speaking of Speaking of things
that you see in images that maybe aren't suitable for for
YouTube. Which one?
With the holes in the face. Oh, I was going to say I was.
Like, you know what? Am I missing something?

(51:26):
When when you know, you know. When you see it, you'll see it.
I do I see it. I just didn't I I thought it was
I thought it was something, you know, there's there's so many
random ones. I had AI had like a, you know, a
profile code that had a lot of nudes for a while for whatever
reason, because it was just like, that's just how it
generated. And I was like, I don't know why
I did that, but like this stuff too, dude.

(51:50):
Why haven't I? Dude, you know what?
I just remembered what? I haven't.
I haven't even tried animating those those human bouquet ones
yet. I should I should go back and
try those. Yeah, it's.
Like half of your probably 180,000 generations.
Yeah, I got to go. I just remember that I was like
that made me kind of think of orthe one below it did where there
was like a bunch of items. What is that one below the OR

(52:12):
what is that one with the sign Iguess?
This one. Yeah, what is this?
It's. Cool.
It just like sort of traveled. Into it.
I like that top right, that top right one.
Yeah, it's good. It's some, some of this stuff
is, is super, super fun. Like I was just playing, you
know, I try to take like these weird ones and see what it's
going to do. You know, I never sort of know

(52:33):
this feel. It feels like a stage visual or
something that would be like a concert.
This one didn't impress me too much.
You know, being candid was like,I thought it would be a little
bit cooler. That's pretty cool.
I mean, but there's, there's also a lot going on there.
I wonder have you, have you tried prompting?

(52:54):
OK, that's a perfect example. Because they're, they're like 2
basically variables that have movement or could have movement
there, right? You had that soldier or whatever
that was. And then you also had this the,
the film on the screen. So I don't know, maybe you want
both moving, let's say, or maybeyou want someone stationary.
Are you saying like, let's, let's maybe help people out

(53:17):
here? Do you need to prompt for both
of those variables, meaning having the film move and maybe
you want that soldier to stay stationary?
Maybe I haven't tried it yet because I've just sort of been
testing with like what this can do like this kind of stuff.
I just like, let it run, you know?

(53:38):
I'm like. Oh, that's, that's where I'm
saying like, I think this is deep, right?
Like it's going to take us a lotof time to kind of like go
through some of these experiments because that, that's
a good one. And I'd also be interesting,
right? Interested if you've got 2
variables like that, is it better to go about calling it
out in the prompt itself or by negative prompting and saying
like, no, no walking or you knowwhat I mean?
Like, I don't know, probably on the the former, if I had to take

(54:02):
a guess, because the latter feels like maybe that, but but
still like again, like that's a great experiment to test and try
to know how these things like can can operate together when
you've got multiple things goingon in one scene.
So like this kind of stuff to meis just wild.
Like it's just taking this mood board and then like.

(54:22):
Yeah, that's pretty cool. Yeah, that's pretty cool.
The fact that it's just taking like these section of things and
actually like doing something with it, which I'm like, all
right, that's insane. You know, like these are it's a
really like for me just to push auto prompt and get that.
I thought that was pretty awesome.
I mean like I was obsessed with these for a while.

(54:45):
This is this is how about this one?
I don't know if I have the good one here, if I can find it.
This was a for for context, thiswas a picture my mom sent me of
an image that I drew her like when I was like 7 or something.
She's there's to the coolest mom.
There's no other mom like you. And she has a wooden spoon

(55:06):
that's shooting a rainbow at A at a dragon.
And I have, you know, man, mom'sreally cool, right?
So. You drew that.
I drew that when I was really young, dude.
Can we throw, can we put, can weput some respect on that bro?
Dude, like this is how it just took that and I'm like, this is
so awesome. Imagine if you were.
Imagine if you were a kid and you had this in your hands.

(55:29):
This is what I'm saying. You're even just take your kids
drawings, throw them in here anddescribe the scene of what you
like. Dude, if you're a kid though if
you're a kid. I mean there's still something
extremely magical about just theelement of drawing something and
having it there anyway, but could but imagine just the
context switch in the medium. If you're a kid, you draw some

(55:50):
and then all of a sudden you do something like that and it's
just like, yo, these are these are novel things happening here.
I mean, that's. Yeah, it's.
That's pretty crazy. Yeah.
Like these were. I was so obsessed when I started
doing it. I'm like, this is so damn.
Cool. That's a great dude.
You have got to post that one. Yeah, that's a That has got to

(56:11):
be a post. I, this one, I, I, I realized
it. I, I forget when I did this, it
was like late night. I just wanted to like test it to
see like what it would do. I'm seeing these are all,
there's like a bunch of extends in here.
So I'm trying to find if there'sones that are a little bit more
novel. Like, yeah, there's like weird.
Like it, it went in like 1,000,000 different directions,
which I was, I was cool with. I was like, really?

(56:32):
I wonder, like I wonder with this, right?
Like it's, it's a, it's a reallycool drawing.
It's already kind of in motion, you know, is there a way to like
this is where it's like, is there a way to like really
subtly get them into where it's at right now in this frame
versus just like jumping immediately there?
Well I had the prompt here, it said we crash zoom into an

(56:55):
immersive scene. So if I take that out, it's
like. Not Oh, OK, you know.
What I mean, like I, I wanted itto sort of jump into like to
come to life. You know what I mean?
You ever seen the movie Pagemaster?
Do you remember that one from I?Don't know that one and I don't
think I've seen it. It was it was Macaulay Culkin
animated movie back in the day. It was like the basically you
went you went into the books, like the kid went into the books

(57:16):
and like in like Moby Dick and like a few other things.
But like it sort of reminded me of that where I'm like, this is
so, so much fun. Like if I had, you know, Faye
was drawing, I would definitely take it in here and do some
stuff with it. Like you could do this with your
girls if they're. They're drawing a, they're
drawing a ton of stuff right now, right?
Like I mean like this is I I have a lot of extends here so I

(57:39):
I forget which one is which, butlike that one to me was a ton of
fun. That is awesome.
I had a lot of fun with that. Some of these were really
impressive too, like the like I had that.
I was like basically asking for someone to come in and bite.
Like they whiff here, but you, Ican't remember which one it is,
you know, but some of them you see it and they're like, and you

(58:04):
definitely get it right. Like some of this one up, bite
the fingers. That one we we get it a little
bit, but it can do it. And here you get like the full
action of the. Bite.
You know what I mean? Without her actually releasing,
you get some of the crunch of the sandwich.
The lettuce moves like that stuff was pretty impressive to
me. This one, she actually gets it.

(58:25):
I'm like, what about all right? Hey, what about?
I don't know if you were planning on showing this or not,
but I saw you had. I don't maybe it was your post
today on LinkedIn, but it was the idea that you could take,
you could basically isolate a, acertain frame within that video
using Weevie. Yeah.

(58:49):
Like, so for example, like goingback to what you had there,
there was a perfect moment whereshe looked like she was really
biting into it in a very believable, realistic way.
Before then something else happened, right.
So it was almost like, OK, you know, if you wanted to take
that, isolate that exact moment rather than taking it into
another tool and, you know, cropping it out or whatever it

(59:11):
is, but. Let's see if I have.
I mean, if I can just get this one on the first shot.
No, that's not the one I'm looking for.
For was it this? One, I like those though those
like. Maybe it's the colors too.
I like the color palette on those.
This is it. All right, so let's we'll we'll
do this. We'll do this live, right?
So download this. So in, in weevie, I built

(59:35):
A-frame extractor in about two minutes, which is so useful for
this stuff. So let me see if, where is my
frame extractor, right? Basically it's just 4 nodes.
You upload a file, you extract the frame, you know, you can
play with the composition if youwant to from like a perspective
standpoint, not perspective aspect ratio standpoint and

(59:57):
upscale it. So you know, essentially.
Let's see if I have to. Do I have to delete here?
Nope. I might just have to add another
file import. So we'll upload the video,
right? Once it's uploaded, run this

(01:00:18):
thing in here, change this up. Cool, actually might have to.
Might have to redo this compositor.
So this comes in as a background, but now I can I can
basically like isolate per framewhich one I want yeah, let's say
it's here. It'll just come up here as a way
to go into now magnific if I wanted to and and run it as an

(01:00:41):
upscale. So maybe we want to get to like
there or something like that. You know, I can isolate this and
then download it, you know, run,just run this, see what happens.
So I what did this, this thing is so helpful.
It's such a simple application, but I've always, I always want
to like, Oh, I really like that portion of it.

(01:01:02):
You know what I mean? Like that?
Portion of it exactly. So I can take it and sort of run
with it. But yeah, if you guys aren't you
guys haven't been playing aroundwith Weevie.
It's awesome. So like again, you know, take
this upscale it teeth a little bit screwed up, but regardless,
super fun. And you know, there's a million
things you can build on Weevie, but there's this was the the

(01:01:23):
other one I wanted to talk aboutbecause I just found them to be
so awesome. Maybe I'll just pull up the.
Video like the colors? Like the colors on those?
These were. Is that an SRAF or no?
No, that's that's my one of the ethereal mood boards mixed with
a bunch of other stuff. But really like, I just want to

(01:01:43):
take this and see what it would do with it.
Right. So it turned it.
I I had the I did add the promptbutterfly effect.
I'm like, I don't know what the hell that's going to be.
Let's we'll see what happens, right?
And it just took this skull and turned it into like a from that
skull to like that morph into a person.
I'm like, oh, that's sick, right?
Yeah. So I'm like, oh, what else can

(01:02:04):
we do with that? And I think I went into.
Well, that could be a whole. That could be a whole thing too,
right? Where it just continues to keep
morphing into different things. Yeah, 'cause I was, I was trying
to see what I could do. This was like, all right, I
didn't like that. But then I think I went into
where maybe I'm going to see this one butterfly effect.

(01:02:25):
No, that's the same one. Those are the extends.
Maybe it's just easier for me toshow you on X so I don't have to
try to find it. That's the only problem here is
like trying to find this stuff like in between the extends and
whatnot. Like this here, like same one we
just saw. This one was crazy.
This next one really like blew my mind.

(01:02:46):
It started there, right? It started with the.
Full screen. Full screen it.
What's full screen it? So it started with the skull and
I just said go to, you know, be a ballerina dancing.
And it took the overhead perspective, which I thought was
sick. Like it just turns it into that.
This one was more of like a likea bloom, like I wanted like a
fractal bloom to see what it would do.

(01:03:08):
And it sort of. Like ran with that and this one
was just super cool. I don't even know what's going
on, but I like it. So it's interesting, right?
Like it can do this kind of stuff where that that brought a
whole new perspective to me. I'm like, oh can this can?
This well, if you and if you're using mid journey, even for I
mean like I I just think like the easiest application too, to

(01:03:30):
start using video is like more of the abstract ish gradient.
It's not a photo realistic thing.
Like there's application for the, you know, like I could
already see that one with just the bloom or whatever it is,
right? Being a background video on a
website, right? Like.
And then this is where I was playing with it a lot, which

(01:03:53):
sort of gave me the idea. Then go run it with the other
image generators, but or video generators.
But I was like, let's just put aproduct in here and see what it
does. So I wanted to morph it into
like a into a mushroom like the,you know, the drink is a
mushroom infused drink. So I was like, oh, let's play
with this and see how it can handle it.
I was like, this is damn cool. You know if you can do this,
make like ASMS asset out of this.

(01:04:16):
Or kept the kept the text in place too.
And like these, it gets really unique.
Now wait. Now just wait till it's like
wait till you could start to getthe texture changes and the
wrinkles and the folds with the text in there that's gonna be.
Oh, I did it. Some of these it doesn't like.

(01:04:36):
This oh so OK, so so that one, for example, yeah.
And you know, I had to extend ita million times, but then I ran
it, then I tried it on the othertools, which which ended up
being pretty, pretty good. Like I was like, all right,
let's let's try this with let's try this with seed dance.
Let's try it with cling and we'll try it with minimax.

(01:04:58):
So it actually did this really well.
And also if anyone's know it, it's super smooth because I
upscaled this to 4K and 120 frames a second in Astra, which
makes it look like that sort of like 3D effect right?
Where it has like that super smooth movement.
Yeah, clink that looks. On this one.
That looks. Clean, but it was so I'm, I'm

(01:05:19):
like thinking about this in terms of not just like, all
right, we can do the fun stuff. We can also have some practical
application for this as well with, you know, utilizing it in
a few different ways. But I was having a ton of fun
just like, oh, I can do these like morphs now, right, Like,
which I was not, which I was notexpecting.
And then even, you know, probably taking some other more.

(01:05:40):
I don't know if I went into someof this stuff, but yeah, we went
into some of that stuff. But like the the idea that this
is now not just like working within the image, but I can like
take it and like run somewhere else with it and like make like
a really sort of, it's creative and it's just like, there's no
other way to say it another way.It's there's no other way to say
it other than it is creative andit can take your idea and it can

(01:06:01):
run with it. So who knows what that
professional model is going to look like?
Professional model. So like as we wrap this up,
couple things, look forward to just a recap.
Professional model super interested in that user profiles
coming to website what is that mood board update launching this
week what is that what's the update what's how does that

(01:06:23):
change things You've got the audio like the the potential
like sound effect implementationin the video, the looping
functionality, the end frame feature in dev so.
Did we mention the API? Do we have to?
Oh. I don't even think we.
Mentioned that we just have to cover real quick everyone

(01:06:44):
because it it is important. And business API launch it's let
me just give people a little read along here.
So here's what we got from the notes opening applications for
business enterprise API access initial roll out to 10 to 1000
of their largest customers. So I did catch this part of the

(01:07:05):
call too, is like for the initial, let's just call it
group of 10, this is going to bevery, very, very expensive is
what David said. Then he said after that, right
when they launched the sort of like that next group where maybe
it's 100, it's still going to beexpensive.
Then when you get to sort of like this 1000 idea, it's like,

(01:07:27):
OK, it, it's going to be much more approachable, affordable.
So they're going to roll that out in phases.
But yeah, slow control to ramp up based on feedback pricing
will start OK. It does say that pricing will
start extremely expensive and gradually decrease application
form a screening question. So they're they're definitely
looking for the right testers customers with that.

(01:07:50):
Yeah, I would feel like it's going to be the the standard go
to sort of client. Who can afford it because.
I mean, you'll put it on, I think you'll have it on things
like free pick, like I'm sure free pick's interested, like,
you know, maybe weevie flora, things like that where it's like
you just have like all the toolsavailable and then.
Korea. Korea, Korea, they might see

(01:08:12):
Korea as a competitor. I don't know, you know, like
Korea Korea's kind of was like the only real competitor for
them for a while, like in terms of creativity and stuff you
could do on there before they started becoming an aggregator.
I'm sure. I'm sure they like vibe with
Korea though, in terms of like the sort of like the maybe not,
maybe I don't know, But it's interesting to watch the sort of

(01:08:34):
if you can hear the AB CS in thebackground there's but there
there's I'm curious to see like what the match is because I feel
like they'll be pretty selectiveon this.
Yeah, and the weird thing it's. Common, though it's common.
The one thing to to probably notice, you won't be able to use

(01:08:55):
mid journey the way that you think you can use mid journey
like you see. Lite version.
Cling always has, Cling has like1,000,000 features on their
website, but you go through any of the tools that have API and
it's just like generate video like that's it.
So you might not be style. Reference.
That's a great point. Permutations might not be, you
know, all the fun things that goalong with it.

(01:09:16):
Very subtle, very strong, like it's, it's all.
What makes their experience so different is that there are so
many options there. But just if anyone is looking
forward to that and thinking what it might look like, it's
probably going to have to be trimmed down because there's no
way they can have that. I think that's a great point.
Yeah. I wouldn't even think about
that. But that's that's absolutely

(01:09:36):
probably going to be the case. They're just and mid journey
especially has got so many of those little feature things and.
Parameters like I don't know I mean.
Yeah. And, you know, like even just
thinking about like the mobile experience, there's still things
on mobile that the like on mobile that you only can do on
desktop. Like the editor I think is still
the old editor on mobile still, you know, for example.

(01:10:00):
So yeah, there's there's going to be stuff like that.
I think that's a great point. Just to just to put that out
there, but. What else, man?
I mean, is there, I mean, that'sexciting stuff coming up.
I mean, I'm, I'm still super hyped about all of that.
I think I'm like the most curious just because like I feel

(01:10:21):
the other ones are a little bit more.
I mean, obviously you've got theprofessional video features.
I I think I'm definitely interested in that.
But while vague, I feel like what it's saying is it's it's
higher quality, right? Like so I'm, I'm expecting
something better than what's there.
And if it's that, then it's like, OK, I, I know what I'm
getting. But I guess what I'm most

(01:10:43):
curious about that is vague at the moment is the user profile
stuff, because that is one of those elements that community
social aspect where mid journey could capture that if they want
it. And how much of that's
intertwined, right? Do you want to build like to
your point is like, is there maybe like a portfolio thing
there or they're, you know, mosthighly used tokens that this

(01:11:06):
person uses? Like what what kind of elements
are there? Yeah, because that that to me is
a an opportunity to like also differentiate and build
community aspect. Keep the community going.
That's it like just any more things that you can do to keep
piling on top of it because it's, it's already strong even
without, you know, I don't want to say a lot of attention the

(01:11:26):
the office hours is enough attention, right?
Like that's, that's more than anyone else does.
So it's like, you know, if you're looking for places to
expand, it's definitely that thecommunity side of it.
But yeah, dude, I'm just like, what do I what the hell do you
even expect from a professional video at this point?
Like the stuff is so crazy to begin with.
That and. And is that and that one doesn't

(01:11:49):
that one doesn't come with soundthough, I mean.
Maybe I don't know, I don't know.
There there's so much, there's so many variables to video,
which is what makes it like impossible to sort of like give
any framework on it too. It's just sort of like, here's
your infinite canvas, like play with it.
You know what I mean? But I'm I'm amped.

(01:12:11):
It feels like they they got their mojo back.
There were yeah, there were somethere were some not worrying
moments of, you know, 2024 early25, but like kind of like, OK,
what we do and we're talking a lot about stuff that's coming.

(01:12:33):
We just haven't seen anything. Wow.
Now you know, they're not doing the.
I don't know if they're still operating under this like we're
shipping something every other week kind of thing.
It kind of feels like they're still are.
I mean, they've I would, if you got this mood board update
coming this week, like they say,that would be another two weeks,
right, That you got something new.
And then I don't know what the deal is with style explorer or
when you're going to get this end frame thing, but those are

(01:12:55):
sound like they're coming up. Then you've got this.
If this professional thing is testing that's past training,
testing couple weeks away, you know, so I it just kind of feels
like there's several things starting to line up here again
where you're like, OK, there's like some big drops coming.
They'll probably be while we're away, so let's just let's.

(01:13:16):
Just yeah, yeah, I need to startlike thinking about am I
traveling? I know you're traveling.
So next week, that's there. You go.
There you go. Might be then, but yeah,
hopefully it's hopefully it's new, hopefully it's good.
Hopefully they just keep on this, this, you know, rapid pace
that they're that they're they're doing right now because
it's, it's to me, it's just so. Much fun times man.

(01:13:38):
One after the next just keep us excited.
We're we're excited with video like again, anything new is like
a is like a cherry on top at this point still.
So. We'll we'll see, but you know,
we'll probably going to be just a little caveat here also next
couple weeks, a little bit crazytraveling for, you know,
conferences, things like that. Might be a little bit behind

(01:14:01):
schedule on some of these episodes.
We'll definitely try to get themup as much as we possibly can
during the next. Three, Yeah, we'll see.
We'll see what we got. I mean, we always try like we
try to, we try to adjust if we need to.
But that said, like if it's if there's no major thing happening
and that happens, it's like, OK,maybe we skipped that week.
But yeah, but in the in the interest of time, I do have to,

(01:14:24):
I do have to jump off here. So let's, let's rock'n'roll,
Yeah, let's rock'n'roll. Everyone, if you made it this
far, you know the damn deal. Like and subscribe please.
You know the deal. Come come back and find us next
week. We'll hopefully have a new
episode for you. And then if there's anything
else that that jumps out to you guys, we'd love the comments.
We read all of them. We try to respond as many as we
can. So keep those things coming as

(01:14:46):
well. And we'll catch you guys in the
next one. See ya peace.
