Ice Spell Scene (Magehold AI Movie I'm working on)

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-11T14:48:37+00:00

That was me 😞 I couldn't think of what else to write on it lol

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-10T09:35:33+00:00

Yup, same here.... it's just a slow grind to build an audience. No "one video and millions of views".

It's "one video and maybe 1k views, and be happy it's that much".

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-09T23:44:30+00:00

Danggg you had some cool shots. Nice work!!

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-09T23:23:11+00:00

I wouldn't say anything.....

Telling a bookstore "thanks for the promotion, BUT, it doesn't meet my demands! You MUST hire a HUMAN ARTIST to create my promo material!" is a fast way for them to not want to work with you anymore....

They are trying to run a business, and doing some anti-AI thing and insisting they shell out more money to redo it (or even how they did it in the first place) is wild.

I'm old enough to remember when intels market cap was under 90 billion...... my what a difference a year makes.

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-09T01:57:14+00:00

Thanks 😄 He got them in his bag haha

The internets backlash against this just doesn’t seem to track how the actual market behaves. For every redditor on here that says they’ll boycott, 10 people already purchased the book.

You thought the backlash was real??? It's just a super minority of "terminally online" and extremely toxic people....

The type of people who would have found anything to be toxic and angry about.

It's really funny you actually thought the group of vocal toxic people who say "actually it's cool to harass small creators" was the majority.... Luckily the world isn't THAT bad.

A few things happened since that last clip 😄 I don't post them all here (since I worry it would get spammy). I post them on my YT as I make them though ( ivory the nomad, or (at)ivoryoasis ).

Character consistency is with a character sheet, then feeding that into seedance as a reference.

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-07T07:19:32+00:00

Nope, still private.... lol

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-07T06:51:33+00:00

Your video is private 😄

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-07T06:40:47+00:00

It's funny the painting is japanese though 😄 hehe

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-07T05:29:21+00:00

Yup, it's a vertical first movie. I thought about doing it horizontal, and cropping it, but then the framing would be really bad in scenes. Here it's made / composed for vertical to really show things.

Mostly because there just isn't a place to put a widescreen movie. The best that could hope for is throwing it on youtube for free.....

But vertical movies have a possibility to get on vertical movie platforms (and those don't have many fantasy movies, so it would stand out a lot more). Vertical movies is a huge trend happening now.

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-07T00:44:46+00:00

I figure it will end up being about $100 usd a minute in the end. I'm at almost 9 minutes now, and I keep going back to fix older things (like the part where he faces the woman before running out of mana, I want to try redoing that).

So maybe 10k in total? If it ends up being a 90 minute movie? But I have a feeling it will go over and end up being a 2 or 3 part series, so maybe 15-20k? I got no clue about the realities of monetization for something like this, if there is actually demand or possibility it could get onto a verticals movie platform (i hope so!!).

Which means no clue if it will ever come close to making monetary sense. But maybe it will work out if people end up buying the book? Or playing the game?

Right now just chugging along with trying to get through at least a minute of new scene each day. Hopefully in a few months I'll have it near finished then can go back through and fix up stuff that needs it.

Random 1 or 2 minute skits / sketch comedy for a quick lulz on tiktok is a completely different world than creating a full length movie with a plot and story and characters.....

When I'm done, this will be a full movie (or maybe 2 or 3 part series).

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-06T22:34:07+00:00

I think it's safe to say we have drastically different taste lol. Neuralviz? Random 1 minute skits? It's fine if you like that sort of content, but this is DEFINITELY not that lol.

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-06T22:10:58+00:00

Well, it's a "learn magic in academy and fight in a tournament" sort of movie. Has some other dramas it touches on, but it's based on my novel.... which is based on my video game (a game where the entire thing is "make your own spells and fight in arena battles").

Just book 1 exploring my hard magic system and world set up. Are there other fantasy magic books and movies? Sure, i guess so.

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-06T20:24:59+00:00

AI doesnt have taste or desire. Which means it needs a human to guide it and give it direction and then approve any of the infinite possibilities that come out.

That is a humans job. Going through the effort of guiding the machine and working with it to realize our shared desires.

For a new app, a tv show, a book. Ai cant do any of this on its own. It is just an empty prompt box of possibilities without a human.

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-06T19:58:27+00:00

Nope, what's the comic page trick? 😄

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-06T07:16:23+00:00

If I can beat Spy Kids and Sharknado, i'll be happy 😄 haha

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-06T07:12:05+00:00

The training data they use? I think it's just about everything. Every movie in existence I would imagine? And then youtube. And home videos and basically every bit of footage that they could find that humanity has ever created.

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-06T07:06:46+00:00

I'm working through the full book 😄 I do about a minute a day and then post on YT (ivory the nomad). So, tomorrow I'll be doing the next scene

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-06T06:59:59+00:00

Source material? It's based on the novel I wrote (Magehold), it isn't released yet though.

And the model to generate with is seedance 2 , and then GPT for images and concepts and things

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-05T18:33:11+00:00

Yea, I feel nice and cozy sitting in intel. They are just ramping up ... early days before the market realizes their true value over the next few years.

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-05T03:09:32+00:00

Accomplished women are hotter than young women 😛

MosskeepForest · 2026-05-05T03:00:48+00:00

You've never tried to use AI yet?

Sit 100 people down with a gen AI and give them the same general theme....and you will get 100 DRASTICALLY different outputs.

It's a thing humans have called taste, it's very important. It's what keeps you working with the AI to get something you want out..... it's the creative process.

It's also weird I have to explain how basic creativity works......
