@superstar

I don't have AI visuals you f***ing weirdo, and the one single thing you can call AI is using my own real videos and heavily edited - the only other AI usage is UPSCALING assets and images LOL

I made this s*** in Blender and Gimp software with some sides of of Photoshop and some filtering from CapCut

The only "AI" is Come On Over that uses a pixel overlay custom on top of a REAL video of my homegirl at a dance club we were at together, I then used custom AI to CLONE her and then do a pixel art style overlay that was 30+ gens deep - I then edited it frame by frame MYSELF in to get rid of any artifacting or morphing, I color graded and filtered it, added ADDITIONAL detail like the glowing lights, the animated stars and so on - oh and I have a disclaimer in the thread and full detail on its creation about it

oh and I have a disclaimer in the thread and full detail on its creation about it months ago, page 11 of my mega thread, like how I show bts info and process images of a lot of visuals and some music in it and my other thread

🚨🚨 DISCLAIMER: The pixel art style of the visualizer is a custom AI overlay that is put over real footage of a homegirl of mine who is a club bartender that thought also thought of the visualizer concept - the AI overlaid pixel on top of the real footage took me 30ish generations to not look like s***, used directed AI to clone variations of her in the pixel art. Then I cut it down to a 5sec loop that I THEN edited frame by frame to fix any AI f*** ups and add more detail + additional art - and then I did many video effect edits such as the flickering lights, distorted CRTV scanlines, color grading, the stars (which are also animated) & whatever else. The AI generations took a few days till I was satisfied, then me doing the frame by editing and effects took me a little over a month

• Now for the others? Lets break it down:

How tf is a lyric video AI? I did the font and timing myself in Magic Video Pro X (my video software of choice) and the background is a stock visual that I THEN heavily edited and looped:

Next, this video with literally all LIVE FOOTAGE that me and a friend RECORDED on a 2000s handicam? That I then created the layout and all the coloring and edit/filtering work along with putting it next to its singles coverart for MARKETING and style - IM EVEN IN THE F***ING VIDEO

Next, you think a full on 3D animated video is AI? That I made in BLENDER, have BEHIND THE SCENES process images and test footage in my workshop thread, and models that some I literally sourced online (then edited) and models that I also CREATED MYSELF:

You got me f***ed up you little b**** ass nigga. I made all this while going in and out the hospital with my health problems regarding a brain tumor and my Pots syndrome you w**** over the course of two years going back n forth on California and Arizona while also recording the album in studios and producing it.

Upset because your old ass nigga bipolar two faced club master Proper who's stuck online all day to he point he doesn't even understand basic joke context got slapped around the other day like the b**** you and him is.

Oh and I got more receipts hold on for you AI conspiracy weirdos.

Thank you @Valentine for bringing this dweeb to my attention, and thank you @Smoky_mirror_11 for defending me when I didn't even know this s*** was still going on

not reading all that at ALL but real for Blender

f*** your hard work nigga

explaining your use of generative ai lmaooo

I don't have AI visuals
...
I then used custom AI

@op End beef itt

"30+ gens deep" nigga about to melt the ice caps

what the hell goin on

You supposed to be with me

I put that on the Jesus pieceeeee

typa song that make you wanna snort a line to feel what paak felt

Anyone on KTT versed in "Ethnomusicology"?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnomusicology

Any video or books you can recommend for the curious?

we went through the vids, now next - the artwork - for this dumbass

• 1st, Come On Over artwork

open.spotify.com/album/1Cdvz2EQ1HxWvZBLWAD9X6

I MADE THIS FULLY

here you can see in process copies and rough drafts of layout

here is the literal in process layer of me doing one side before i mirror it

these are the LITEAL youtube vids i learned to do this

youtube.com/watch?v=3PQdx3o7gJA

youtube.com/watch?v=PndZ34z5-88

youtube.com/watch?v=MHxPEKdSK_I

and this is the old version before the full final above ^

i actually think i did a s*** job on the hair LOL, hair was always weak spot from i used to DRAW as a teen - the pixels on the outside arent blended well and I think i should have done more streaks in the hair in more directions

2nd, coverart for A New Light

open.spotify.com/album/5MI0Bvf8e4tO5hrzU5BSQz

This is using old stock photos of kids running around and separate grass filed image that i then COLLAGED together and flatten as one. The SUN is a custom art design by myself that is a design motiff across the album to symbolize "the future", WOW NOW THATS EPIC

here below you can see variations, in process images and color changes, again , using my sun design:

numbers 16 and 18 is using an IRL personal photo that is layered on top of a separate design image, again using my sun motiff, that i then put into a stock image of a frame and then morphed to impose it side ways and replace the original poster from the og photo of the kids to look real in photoshop

numbers 20, 3 and the other one cut off is using a public domain NAT GEO image of kids in africa - i then mirrored the sky, colored and edited a bit one of the mirrors, again did my sun motiff and then added a lil flair like the black bar

AND THIS is the old placeholder A New Light image, again, its basically JUST my sun design with a stock image of the moon that i styled up

next, 3rd artwork for Feel What's Real

open.spotify.com/album/2YjP81IDzBRIeE6UGiP5tJ

this one isnt special, ITS ALL CLIPART LMFAOOO that i mashed together and edited then did stylized font work

from various software and online sources

next n final, 4th artwork for Identity Theft Me

open.spotify.com/album/5epimqO6kfECZ0fCwBAQjX

these are 3D models positioned and frame grabbed in BLENDER after I added effects and s*** to them LOL - its a variation from the Identity Theft animated video - i then edited it as a whole image and such and then upscaled gasps with AI - now this one was made over a year when AI upscaling was still kinda s***, so it made some things wonky in the upscaled image and added artifacting, which then i cleaned up and leaned the final art into the best i can

final, the Album's front and back coverart plus its animated version that was made 2 years ago besides the instrumental version

The birds on the front is from an art designer friend of mine with concept and feedback from me, the ring/portal in the back of it is made by me in photo shop that references the sun motif - then i added static filters, the coloring, the font etc. plus the blood dipped tail on the one on the right, again symbolism and style, and a referenced to blood dipped doves in mysticism and old religions - google "the blood of a white dove"

These are free stock bird images that i positioned around and edited. one of them have a blur effect, another one was turned more liquify-y/cartoony with Gimps change and filter tools - then of course i edited and filtered them along with some color grade matching - and there's that custom sun motif of mine AGAIN

denzelwaters.bandcamp.com/album/the-future-is-forever-instrumental-version

The Instumental version i just added its font to, changed color, added the streak for style and then blended it

the birds being animated was done by a friend of mine, the ring/portal rotating was done by me, the clouds in the back is a edited custom from FL Studios animation and visualizer plugin "ZGameVisualizer" which is ALSO where the spectrospnic visualizer for my yt tracks is made from
