ThroughoutthisAIgenerativeartmodule,Ihavegainedabetterunderstanding ofvariousAItoolsandhoweachtooldiffersfromtheothersthrough experimentation.Formyfinalvideo,IselectedDreamStudio,poweredby StableDiffusion,becauseIbelieveitsstylealignsmorewiththeminimalist, machine-likeaestheticIaimfor.WhileIattemptedtouseMidjourneyto generatesomefinalimagesbyreferencingthosefromDreamStudio,the resultsdidnotmeetmyexpectations.AlthoughMidjourneyisgoodatupscaling imagestohighresolutions,itaddedtoomuchextradetailinmycase. Consequently,IdecidedtomanuallymergeandediteachimageinPhotoshop tomaintainacoherentandconsistentstyle.
OnekeychallengeIfacedwastimemanagement.Ispentconsiderabletime renderingthesameimagerepeatedlyuntilachievingthedesiredoutcome.I realizedthatwhileAItoolsarestilldeveloping,it'sunrealistictoexpectthemto produceexactlywhatIenvision.Therefore,Ilearnedtoacceptthebestresult withinthetimeconstraintsandproceedwitheditingthevideos.
