A FEW OF THE MAGICIANS SECRETS
Majority of the backgrounds I made using a combination of Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, and DALL-E 2
Then I would cut, layer, and pan the backgrounds by hand to give an illusion of depth (Walt Disney Style)
Recently, I found an even greater tool; Another AI boon!
It’s called Leiapix Converter, and it uses light fields to manufacture a more convincing 3D effect in MP4 form: https://convert.leiapix.com/#/
Barebones currently with low res downloads, I’m hoping for one with greater customizability.
Since the AI pictures usually produced at a lower resolution, I would then filter all those assets through Topaz Gigapixel AI (pictures) or Topaz Video Upscaler (videos) to bring it to 4K quality…
The Video Upscaler also has a FPS converter too, so I could bring any footage up to 60FPS in minutes.
NOW, with the crispy footage on top of the clean backgrounds, I’d compound clip the two, and add a “Camera Shake” effect from MAXON’s UNIVERSE suite, to promote an even greater immersion.
I hope to provide MASTERFUL VIDEOS here, as well as the editing secrets for those interested.
Spent several years learning the tools, and am constantly discovering new ones!
