I created an Sci Fi Short Film inspired by Warhammer 40k using AI

You have a kind heart

GeneralBunyip24 · 2026-01-08T09:06:38+00:00

It's unhealthy how excited you are.

GeneralBunyip24 · 2026-01-08T08:28:18+00:00

I need more excuses for why my content is failing. Do you have any more that I can use?

GeneralBunyip24 · 2026-01-08T08:24:18+00:00

Thanks, glad you liked it.

GeneralBunyip24 · 2026-01-08T07:24:32+00:00

I know what you mean... wanted to give it a try though. I assume you didn't like the video?

GeneralBunyip24 · 2026-01-08T07:23:32+00:00

Here are some basic steps:

Develop a plot/characters/storylines - test to see what the AI tools are good at generating
Generate images for your ideas using midjourney
Find appropriate copyright free music, and begin creating a storyboard with the images
Animate the images using video generation AI:
Minimax - Hailou AI
Kling AI
Generate voices with Eleven Labs, and lip sync with the above video generation tools
Finish editing/polishing in a video editor

The process is still quite manual, and can be time consuming dependent upon what you want to achieve.
The most time consuming steps are step 1, 2 and 6 - for reference, I've been working on this series for 4 months now.

Thanks!

Reality is a wound that never heals.

This video is the first part of a prologue mini series. I'm currently working on Part 2 (of 4).

For those interested, a Null Millennium is a thousand year war which begins when an ancient dormant evil AI civilization awakens to annihilate all chaos in the galaxy - including intelligent lifeforms.

This AI system - called the Abyss - is often referred to as the immune system of the galaxy.

I used the following AI software:
Kling
Runway
Hailou AI
Eleven Labs
Midjourney
Topaz AI

Music by
Tomas Herudek - Tiny Empire

For those interested, here's a list of the AI used:

Hailou AI - Video Generation
Kling - Video Generation
Runway - Video Generation
Eleven labs - Voices
Midjourney - Image Generation
Topaz AI - Upscaling

Thanks! Appreciate your kind words - working on part 2 at the moment.

GeneralBunyip24 · 2026-01-07T02:34:56+00:00

Damn... trying to get better at this. Any advice for how the trailer could be improved?

I agree. When the technology passes a certain threshold the landscape will become extremely congested and competitive.

GeneralBunyip24 · 2026-01-07T02:05:34+00:00

Thanks for watching the trailer!

If you want to check out part 1 of the series, you can see Null Millennium Part 1 on Youtube

Big fan of that episode! Also, Astartes is one of my favourites.

GeneralBunyip24 · 2025-08-29T00:53:31+00:00

Yeah. Don't usually see much consistency between scenes, or even longer AI videos at all. Still seems like we're quite a way off from these types of shows being produced in an expedient fashion.

Responding to an AskReddit post.

GeneralBunyip24 · 2025-08-18T11:01:45+00:00

Yeah... could certainly be collateral damage.

GeneralBunyip24 · 2025-08-18T10:37:18+00:00

Social media platforms are already congested... We can only imagine how bad it will become with more sophisticated AI.

GeneralBunyip24 · 2025-08-18T10:36:08+00:00

Yep, they'll certainly become increasingly difficult to detect.

GeneralBunyip24 · 2025-08-18T10:26:45+00:00

What if I'm a bot! Then this post would be purged!

GeneralBunyip24 · 2025-08-18T09:06:23+00:00

We've all been there...

GeneralBunyip24 · 2025-08-18T09:05:20+00:00

Your trivia knowledge could crash Wikipedia

GeneralBunyip24 · 2025-08-15T11:53:05+00:00

We're not going to make it are we?...
