PART 1 - Basic look and feel, introduction scene.
We used Unreal Engine for quickly blocking out and establishing action and simple camera cuts to establish look, feel and cinematic vibes.
PART 2 - Use AI to assist in creating more vehicles and props.
We used Multi-modal AI for text to image, and for image to 3d model utilizing Kaedim | Generate 3D Models from 2D Images with AI (kaedim3d.com).
From there we UV unwrap, texture, and rig using Blender prepping the 3d files for Unreal Engine.
Rigging, textures, and animation by Alex Gaidachev. Concepts and AI imagery Anthony (Mn8XR) Bonnet
We composited the image with the wireframe to show-off Kaedimās beautiful geometry edge flow.
š Exciting Showcase of AI-Driven 3D Art š
Iām thrilled to share a fascinating blend of AI technologies that are revolutionizing the way we create and tell stories through digital art. In the images above, you can see a creative process where AI plays a pivotal role from start to finish.
š¼ļø Image Creation: The first images showcase three AI-generated 2D images and the resulting 3d model, each created using advanced AI technology. These models interpret our 2d images and convert them into vivid visual representations, providing a solid foundation for further creative exploration.
š 3D Transformation: Below the 2D images in the first image, you can see the corresponding 3D models. These were transformed from the 2D images using Kaedim3d, a cutting-edge web-based tool that leverages multi-modal AI. This technology allows us to convert 2D images directly into 3D models with remarkable accuracy and detail.
š§ Multi-Modal AI Integration: The process utilizes two main nodes of AI: text-to-image generation and image-to-3D model conversion. This multi-modal approach not only enhances the creative workflow but also opens up new possibilities in digital storytelling and visual development.
šØ Next Steps in Creation: We are planning to texture and animate these models for use in more Dune-inspired VFX clips in Unreal Engine, further bringing these creations to life. The rigging of these models is expertly handled by Alex Gaidachev, whose skills are instrumental in preparing these models for dynamic and realistic animation.
A huge thank you to the teams behind these AI technologies, especially Kaedim3d - Kaedim | Generate 3D Models from 2D Images with AI (kaedim3d.com) and Konstantina Psoma, for developing tools that are not just innovative but incredibly empowering for creators. These latest advancements are a game-changer for artists and developers, enabling us to bring our wildest imaginations to life with unprecedented ease and speed.
š Let's continue to push the boundaries of what's possible with AI in creative storytelling!
