More AI Video

| JVS

Since the first test, I’ve been planning the next set of tests with more detail in my own script development. There is 100+ avatars available – I chose one for general messaging.

Below, The first video was created with AI but using actual human actor references. The lip-sync is spot and and very believable. The script was crafted for a British word usage with a British accent. You can use actual actor voice of that avatar or choose another voice. The second video below (female in red hoodie holding product) was more AI driven – the lip sync seemed a bit off. Overall this is an incredible option for companies with low marketing budgets.

New products

After many months of planning, designing, printing, all three card packs are ready to help people learn more about Siri, Alexa & Google Assistant are available & ready to ship. The website is complete and the square store is up and running. I still need to get these up on Amazon and begin a social marketing strategy.

New Year, New Trajectory

| JVS

What have I been up to this year? What are the plans? And why where there so many posts reference Magic: The Gathering cards?

MAGIC CARDS: These cards were part of an art piece featuring 18 Magic cards. I ‘designed’, ‘wrote copy’ and art directed 50 cards as an experiment using AI. This included; prompt strategy, creating images and text using AI. The final piece only used 18 finalized cards. It’s customary before an art show, to post ‘teasers’ of your final entry. I posted one card per day to engage socially and promote the event. Due to my experiments with AI, I incorporated an AI sub-section under ideation focused on AI image creation.

2025: New focus on new endeavors! Job hunting has been challenging, but I’m not giving up or waiting for others to define me or my path. I’ve decided to delve in the design-product space and launch two products in 2025—one in the first quarter and the other in the second. You may have noticed a new “Products tab” in the main menu of my website. Details are limited for now, more to come as launch day approaches.

2024 Limited edition Graphic Tee – $30

I like to wear a small part of my artwork for the opening night. Sticker Mule did a great job this year with the ‘direct to garment’ custom t-shirt process. I was really happy with the results.

Above is a detail of the shirt graphic. The color is bright and detailed and the image is well-adhered to the fabric. I would definitely recommend Sticker Mule custom tee-shirt process to any organization needing fast efficient images applied to tee-shirts.
