I don’t think selling the videos is the way, the idea is to teach folks how to make the videos and foster appreciation, reverence and connection. In a year or two they’ll be AI enabled sex bots, so this is a window. But if we learn from Elon, make cars then shut down the car…

These are epic recall episodes, happening in an instant, she could be watching herself or paused like in Roger while the scene unfolds around her. Maybe she is way slowed down or smeary. The scene can have an animated vignette, black dots crowding in and around like when one is about to pass out, 3D…

The construction of events is elegant, though there are a few bits that feel broken, like the corporation’s lawyer perjuring himself in the hearing, that’s a bit out of character. Felt like there…

This VFX breaks SOD. She’s facing the sunset, but too evenly lit and untinted by the colors of sunset for this shot to make sense. Lazy.. Plus there’s two sunsets. One she is supposedly facing and the other suggested behind her. To her right, red clouds lit from below which would only be possible if…

Dark Energy Vanguard Caves and tunnels Super famous among the cool by deciding to super tune Elegant Pulsar weekly for fun with consistent creation, longer productions every month I don’t want to be a journalist, a shaman and trickster perhaps, my little game of thrones reality show.
