We use nano banana extensively to build video storyboards, which we then turn into full motion video with a combination of img2vid models. It sounds like we're doing similar things, trying to keep images/characters/setting/style consistent across ~dozens of images (~minutes of video). You might like the product depending on what you're doing with the outputs! https://hypernatural.ai https://hypernatural.ai
- Genego 11mo agoYes we are definitely doing the same! For now I’m just familiarizing myself in this space technically and conceptually. https://edwin.genego.io/blog https://edwin.genego.io/blog
- roywiggins 11mo agoYour "Dracula" character is possibly the least vampiric Dracula I've ever seen tbh

- observationist 11mo agoI agree. Bruhcula? Something like that. He's a vampire, but also models and does stunts for Baywatch - too much color and vitality. Joan of Arc is way more pale. Maybe a little mode collapse away from pale ugliness, not quite getting to the hints of unnatural and corpse-like features of a vampire - interesting what the limitations are. You'd probably have to spend quite a lot of time zeroing in, but Google's image models are supposed to have allowed smooth traversal of those feature spaces generally.
- ineedasername 11mo agoFlux Kontext does pretty well also, for modifications. Though I’ve otherwise found the Flux models somewhat stubbornly locked into certain compositions at times that requires a control net to break where other models have been more pliable, though with other trade offs.
- Conscat 11mo agoThat looks exactly like the photos on a Spirit Halloween costume.
- beepbooptheory 11mo agoHaving a Statue of Liberty character available is for some reason so funny to me.
- somenameforme 11mo agoMakes a lot of sense for some short kid's skit teaching them about the branches of government or whatever. One could also get more creative with the Statue of Liberty and Joan of Arc.
- happymellon 11mo ago> Create me a video of Joan of Arc fighting the Statue of Liberty in the style of Shadow of the Colossus. I see where you are coming from...
- qmmmur 11mo agoIf anything, the ubiquity of AI has just revealed how many people have 0 taste. It also highlights the important role that these human-centred jobs were doing to keep these people from contributing to the surface of any artistic endeavour in "culture".
- prox 11mo agoThere is a reason people (used to) study art and train for years. Easy art is often no art because you need that effort and investment, and learning artistic context, to understand and appreciate. Which is not to say don’t be creative, I applaud all creativity, but also to be very critical of what you are doing.
- bestthrowaway 11mo agoI've been playing around with T2I/I2V generation to make some NSFW stuff of video-game characters using ComfyUI. It's pretty easy to get something decent. It's really hard to get something good. I share my creations with some close friends and some are like "that's hot!" but are too fixated on breasts to realize that the lighting or shadow is off. Other friends do call out the bad lighting. You may be like "it's just porn, why care about consistent lighting?" and the answer for me is that I'm doing all this to learn how everything works. How to fine tune weights, prompts, using IP Adapter, etc. Once I have a firm understanding of this stuff, then I will probably be able to make stuff that's actually useful to society. Unlike that coke commercial.
- sam345 11mo agoYou can do better than porn which isn't very useful to society.
- CamperBob2 11mo agoAs opposed to what you're doing at the moment, living your best life here on social media.
- tincholio 11mo agoHe looks like Dracula on LinkedIn
- nolroz 11mo agoThe website lets you type in an entire prompt, then tells you to login, then dumps your prompt and leaves you with nothing. Lame.
- scotty79 11mo agoI noticed ChatGPT and others do exactly the same once you run out of anonymous usage. Insanely annoying.
- jdhjn6hhh 11mo agoHn does that too. You've typed out a long response, oh sorry you're posting too fast. Please slow down. It's intentionally hostile and inconsiderate.
- setr 11mo agoYou don’t lose the message though, so it’s infinitely less annoying
- ta12653421 11mo agoRule #1 when typing longer texts into webforms/textboxes: ALWAYS do a CTRL+C before you click submit.
- idiotsecant 11mo agoThat's because you're in the bad user doghouse.
- insane_dreamer 11mo agoAt least on HN you can Go Back in your browser and restore the page before submission with your post in the box. But it would be _much_ better if when you hit reply, it gave you a message that you're "posting too fast" before you spend the time to write it up.
- chanux 11mo agoGot caught out by this just today. Just wanted to try out because it appeared as if I can try it out.
