Creating a Collage Animation Using AI (Dalle-2) #shorts #aiart #animation
Introduction
When it comes to creating animations, especially ones with a surreal and nostalgic feel, nothing beats the look of old magazine ads from the 1950s and 1960s. These ads, with their strange and surreal aesthetic, provide a perfect backdrop for my cut-out and scan animation projects. Today, however, I decided to take a different approach: using AI to generate images for my collage animation.
Generating Images with AI
To start, I focused on themes I love: sharks, the ocean, and outer space. These themes often pop up in my work and make for an interesting and outlandish blend when put together. Using an AI image generator, I crafted several prompts, ensuring to include "60s vintage scan magazine ads" at the end of each prompt to create that unique, retro vibe.
The Wild Results
The AI didn't disappoint. The generated images came out wild and completely in line with the aesthetic I aimed for. Each image was scanned in high quality, mimicking the texture and look of a printed old magazine ad. These AI-generated graphics effectively replaced my traditional method of cutting out images from physical magazines.
Animation Process
With the generated images in hand, I proceeded to create the animation. The process was much the same as usual: arranging the cut-outs in various scenes and bringing them to life frame by frame. The blend of AI-generated imagery and the animation technique gave an intriguing and otherworldly feel to the final output.
Conclusion
Incorporating AI into my animation process not only saved time but also opened up new avenues for creativity. I’m eager to explore more themes and see what other surprising results I can achieve with AI-generated images.
