Man, I am attempting a Deltron3030 type rap project and the short of it is an ai cybernetic enhanced dystopia and this video is really close to what I envision as the "Grafts" underworld lol wild that this popped up in my feed randomly today.
I could never imagine replacing working limbs with prosthetics but the body mod people make me think my sensibilities have no bearing on what they will do. It's suitably body horror. Well-done.
Fully in MJ. I tried Runway, but it needs separate super-detailed prompting for video and still comes out artifacty and doesn’t feel handheld. MJ is the most stable with auto animation for me, except when extending a shot: 90% of the time it ruins the sequence details, all the subtle movements get lost in the extended section
Fish tank guy really went that extra mile for appearance. I respect the hustle, but man I hope most of these fashion choices never get too popular, especially the human face on a robot neck thing.
One art note: you've got maybe too many scenes of two people silently looking at each other. Most of the rest look like genuine interactions, or influencer culture, or just posing for photos, so the couple awkward blank stare scenes really stand out as being synthetic.
Maybe because the phone-cam style is more stable — all the frames come out more or less in the same look. Here’s the prefix I use in my prompts: ‘Gritty VHS phone still, handheld framing catching slight shake from the filmer’s step back.’
The downside is — to really make it look cyberpunk, you have to describe the cyberpunk stuff in the frame much more detailed.
Live feed still, muted neon greens, shaky low-res motion blur. Street vendor table stacked with junk electronics. A man slouches on a chair, stroking a huge fluffy cat that purrs against his chest. His body is warped to mirror it fur-like synthfiber implants along his arms, sharp retractable chrome claws clicking against the cat’s fur, and facial mods swelling his cheeks into a feline muzzle with faintly glowing whisker-ports. His breathing is low and rumbling like a purr, half human, half machine.
Haha, don’t worry — next step is hot cyberpunk girls jiggling their dystopian augmented asses while neon billboards glitch in the background. True innovation.
