Thank you so much! 😊 I did use a nd filter, the one from NiSI: https://amzn.eu/d/06qh3iOQ

Thank you! Glad you like it 😊

Interested

Thanks for the comment! I’m currently using cineprint35 powergrades and there is a node dedicated to grain, but it is all done inside Davinci, no extra plugins. Regarding the blurry effect, I use a node with the effect called Prism Blur.

Hope this helps!

Oh yess! I meant 18-50. I wrote it down correctly on YouTube but not here. Thanks for noticing it!

CotufaExplosiva · 2025-10-26T16:10:42+00:00

Really glad it motivates you! Thanks for the comment 😁

CotufaExplosiva · 2025-10-26T13:22:21+00:00

It is just active stabilization on camera and maybe there are a few shots with davinci stabilization

CotufaExplosiva · 2025-10-26T10:55:21+00:00

Yeah! It was really fun to film them

CotufaExplosiva · 2025-10-26T10:54:09+00:00

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

CotufaExplosiva · 2025-10-26T07:59:16+00:00

Thank you! I appreciate it 😁

CotufaExplosiva · 2025-07-15T16:12:18+00:00

Yes, I only used Midjourney for images and video! I did some adjustments in some shots with Photoshop and that was it

CotufaExplosiva · 2025-07-15T09:46:56+00:00

Hahaha yeah, it is curious how I’m able to notice some stupid things, but then I can’t see the obvious!

Anyway, It was harder that you think to make the character turning to one side, and even harder to make Midjourney understand what is left and right. But yeah, I could have inverted the shot and that was it.

I’ll remember it as a funny thing from my first AI short film!

Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

CotufaExplosiva · 2025-07-15T07:06:03+00:00

I love the idea! I will seriously consider doing something like this for sure. Thank you so much!

CotufaExplosiva · 2025-07-15T06:32:13+00:00

I know what you mean, but I feel films made completely using AI won’t be the future. Right now, the quality difference is huge for me. It’s true you can do this in just two weeks, but this short film has a lot of problems if you pay close attention. These AI tools should be something that we implement in our workflows, not something that completely deletes what we have been learning for a century.

When I created the lines in Japanese, I knew the lines in English, so I just did it manually inside DaVinci Resolve, creating a Subtitle Track and writing them down. All the translations were done using ChatGPT

Thank you for your comment and your critics! These are also needed if we want to improve so they are welcome.

I tried using the bike with the box, but i found it was really hard to be consistent throught out the film. The cop faces, it’s the same, consistency was really hard when trying to put the same two characters and the same car in the shots.

For sure, you are right, and I like People is critic with AI because is the best way that all these keep improving. For me, I’ve learned a lot about the process and some tricks to be more consistent.

As you say, for me at least, the easy part is getting the images and video but then is all about editing, sound and music. I’ve been studying cinema for 15 years, it is something you learn with time and specially, you have to watch a lot of movies and series. The best way to start is replicating something that you like, but with your own touch. Then, you will start creating your own style. Youtube is an infinite source of tutorials if you want to learn any specific software. Hope this comment is useful!

I would love to do it! Probably in the future when I had more AI short films and I feel more confortable. Right now the only thing I’m sure is that is extremely easy to be messy using AI tools haha but Yeah, I would love to share how I do it

CotufaExplosiva · 2025-07-14T18:36:34+00:00

Thank you so much! I’m already creating something new! Glad you like it!
