        Here’s another generated video. I’ve been spending a lot of time in doctors’ and hospital waiting rooms lately and I can use some of the AI video generators from my smartphone. You’ve probably seen the “Flicking Channels” videos I’ve created recently. Those videos were not as popular as I expected. I had hoped they would more popular than they have been, maybe (and this is probably overly hopeful) start some conversation and cause some chuckles. The humour, I suspect, needs to be beefed up somewhat.

        To move into consistent, realistic nudity, it’s going to take a few hundred pounds per video.

        From the previous videos I’ve worked on, I know the clips need to be generated in at least FullHD. When taking the last frame of a clip and using it to start the next clip, you suffer a drop in quality. Working at the usual resolutions available currently, I can only use the end-frame-start-frame technique for 3-4 clips before the quality is too low. Obviously, I have developed a variety of techniques for working around this, but starting with much higher image quality would allow chains of clips to go to 6-8 clips instead, without resorting to other tricks.

          So, presented below is the video which I could radically improve by generating the source material in full HD (expensive), needs a LOT more clips (expensive) to iron out glitches and unwanted elements and with a better script (sorry about the terrible script. I didn’t write it in advance but created dialogue on the fly for each 5 second clip). An engine like Pollo.ai or similar could also allow full nudity, which would be vital to produce videos following our nudity theme.

          Sorry the audience scenes don’t really match (don’t bother looking for the parents, they’re not there!). Due to a shortage of credits, I had to switch over to use Qwen to create the audience scenes. Unless you specify otherwise, it biases to one skin colour. I couldn’t recreate the clips as I’d run out of credits on Qwen too by that time.

          The video below doesn’t cover the whole story, but I hope it gives a better idea of what is possible. Imagine this approach used on something like the first long-form video (with nudity, so it’s in the age-verified area).

          Blimey that’s clever, but for one awful and horrifying moment I thought the geezer on stage was Ed Sheeran.

          I was just thinking, another thing I’ve learned is not to have smoke in the background of any video.

            It looks like the “Like” addon is seriously messing up the forum layout now…

                The likes haven’t changed for me, in firefox.

                    If I get time over the next couple of days, I might rework the audience clips (If the relevant AIs are in the mood to be helpful, of course!).

                      I’ve just checked. Firefox and Edge both give the same messed-up layout as Chrome for me. I don’t use Firefox much as it’s SO painfully slow (I know there’s something wrong with it, but several updates later – and a reinstall – and it’s still mega slow). I mostly use Edge and Chrome.

                        Just rewatched the video. Lots of room for improvement and I still cringe at the dialogue (will do better next time) but every time I come back to this, I think about the possibilities with this tech. Keeping things consistent is the biggest issue, but I’ve learnt ways to mostly keep that under control. With careful planning, all sorts of things are possible. I’m wondering about going back to the webcam video I did before and doing it again with speech.

                        I’m not getting any idea of how much interest there is in this. I realise it’s not for everyone but I’m considering creating a separate section of the site (so those not interested can just ignore it as it won’t be in the forums etc.).

                        Each time I’ve posted one of the videos on social media, it’s caused a spike in traffic here, so that’s useful.
