That's really interesting. Did you generate the images with AI?

Yes, the images were generated using Mid Journey and then animated using Runway. It took a few hundred runs to get both the images and the animations of them to this form.

Then I blended it all together with a video software and lined it up to the music.

Very cool. Are those apps the kind that require monthly subscriptions? I think I tried to download Midjourney once and I think there was a cost.

Sadly both of those do. Mid Journey runs in a discord server and Runway is a website.

That sucks, I found some free apps that I was playing with but these seem to be much better.

If you have some images I can animate them

Well the only thing that I have images for at the moment is a comic book that someone is illustrating for me. I have thought about making it into a motion comic. But my understanding is that artificial intelligence is still in its infancy regarding video. This Runway sounds interesting though.
