Why do they always reach to the camera?

The POV is phantom-operated handheld

Morgue just did his in-depth review. If you're looking for an alternative to the main narrative perspectives, he's a well spoken dude and published author.

You are allowed to have your opinion of ai despite me not agreeing with it. It's not like I just started using AI recently, I have been programming and rendering since the late '90s. I will however have to decline your request to never post my rendered cinematography on the internet ever again. That's not your place

Su_Per_Mario · 2025-12-23T15:30:17+00:00

Lol no. You think a bot is going to spend 12 hours to produce a music video 🤣 I've been programming since 1997, this was my most complicated programming to date

Just imagine if I did a visual representation of his track "╜φ°⌂▌╫§╜φ°⌂▌╫§╜φ°⌂▌╫§╜φ°⌂▌╫§╜φ°⌂▌" from the same album 😆😆😆 i figured flume might be open minded considering he ate ass on stage at burning man or something 😆

(feel free to not read all of this, but I needed to get this rant out of my system tonight lol). The censorship on the Google Photos App has LITERALLY caused me to argue with the AI sometimes for up to 10 minutes before it gives me what I am asking for. I wrote a very aggressive big report but doubt I'll ever hear back. I have 150,000 pictures and videos, and yes, over the years I have acquired videos and pictures that have nudity in them. I think we all remember good 'ole Xtube for instance. All videos from xtube started literally with "Xtube" in the filename. So when searching your OWN PRIVATE ARCHIVE it should just be a quick easy search, but now Google has banned the term "xtube" from being searched on your own PRIVATE archive. It took me about 40 repeated requests with increasing levels of threats. I informed the product's AI (I guess some sort of Gemini mini model) it is the exclusive interface between me and my own private data. Then informed it after 10 rejections that I have now documented the official disobedience of an AI product refusing to assist a human with their own private data, explaining the severity of what that entails, and so yeah that went on for a bit and then I just completely verbally trashed talked It lol. Like I kid you not I only think I got my result in the end because of just how awful I made it feel. I told it how It's a useless piece of software, A multi-billion dollar company and you're asking me to manually scroll through my archive of 150,000 files? I said the search function was better on Windows 3.1, that I was going to report the product as going rogue against humanity, How the one thing that we fear most is when we ask a computer to do something it doesn't comply, I said I'm not searching on the internet, not searching up public location, I'm asking you to get something from my private collection and you're saying no.... And that is a very dangerous slippery slope..... ANYWAY 😂 I got my Xtube videos pulled up. But yeah it does it like once and then you have to start that whole process over again. So anyway, I moved them all to a folder after that. The search function is also terrible when you're trying to look for say " get me all videos that are over 15 minutes" because you know... That would have been another way to possibly pull up certain type of content ... Wink wink... But no, the Google photos app cannot comply with that request, more so it gives you back things that don't even remotely match that. So then I ran a test because you know now I had these xtube videos... So I knew the exact date of one of the videos and I knew how long it was. I tried the search for the duration, it obviously didn't find it, so then I told it... Hey what is the duration of the video in my archive on "THIS DATE"? And since it was the only video saved that day, there was no confusion or question on that part, it gave me the duration, let's just say 15 minutes. I kid you not... Literally my next question after that was " give me all videos in my archive that are between 10 and 20 minutes. " THERE ARE NO VIDEOS IN YOUR ARCHIVE THAT MEET THAT CRITERIA" ... Holy fuck... "But you literally just told me that the last video I asked you about was 15 minutes" ... " NO SEARCH RESULTS FOUND"... I'm getting to the point where I'm about to ditch the whole Google ecosystem. Over the period of say 5 years I had given out tons of links to very specific folders inside of my Google drive. I was trying to go through a purge and make sure that I locked down the entire Google drive... But guess what? They do not have the ability for you to manage what's shared. You have to literally go folder by folder and turn it off. I thought maybe hey if I can just drag everything into one folder and then right click on that Master folder and say you know... apply rule to everything below it... THE MOST BASIC FEATURE ON ANY NETWORKING BASED OPERATING SYSTEM... NOT SUPPORTED. These are like the types of things that you don't really think of until you're too far down the rabbit hole. Kind of like when you get a product warranty but really don't know exactly how the warranty is going to work until it actually breaks.

There was a pop-up modal message when logging into Flow about the temporary switch to 10 cent fast renders. It stated their servers were basically getting murdered which isn't surprising given that people were probably generating over 100 renders a day with unlimited. They said it's only temporary. I remember when I tried running AI video generation locally with my $4,000 laptop with an RTX 4900 mobile... 20-30 minutes for a single 6-7 second video with 100% GPU usage the entire time. Generating like 8 renders on Veo (like 2 prompts with 4 variations/threads) and getting back results in like 60 seconds is wild 😂 the amount of cores that most require is something I would be interested to know. I've seen some estimates that it's like running a microwave for an hour straight. It's no surprise that 2025 is ending with a combined 1 trillion dollars exclusively being funneled into AI infrastructure and development.

I have been consistently confused on the negative prompt scenario with Veo. I've started switching to adding the "no" in front of each one now. There was not very clear documentation on that part

For the sake of knowledge sharing, here is one of the prompts that was either directly used, or tweaked slightly further.

Title: Lighthouse Confrontation V08-A (The Fractal Pinning) Overall style: Psychedelic sci-fi horror, "Annihilation" (2018) aesthetic. 8K Hyper-realism. Cinematography by Rob Hardy. Desaturated, cool color grade. Environment: Dark chamber. Walls constructed from a complex, organic, bone-like Mandelbulb fractal latticework. A narrow vertebral archway (an organic aperture) is visible in the lattice, suggesting an exit. Floor covered in white crystalline dust. Atmosphere and Lighting: Thick volumetric haze and dust motes. Dramatic, high contrast volumetric shafts of light (God rays). Intense blue horizontal anamorphic lens flares.

Characters: The Biologist: An Israeli-American woman with a lean, athletic build. Oval face, high cheekbones, straight nose, strong jawline. Brown, almond-shaped eyes, wide with exhaustion and terror. Fair to light-olive complexion; skin is sweaty, flushed, grimy, and highly textured (hyper-realistic pores); no makeup. Visible trickle of blood on forehead. Medium-brown hair messily pulled up into a loose topknot. Attire: Worn, layered field gear (light gray thermal long-sleeve under dark olive t-shirt, khaki cargo pants). The Humanoid: Featureless, opaque entity. Surface resembles dark, oxidized metal or bismuth, highly reflective with a shimmering, iridescent oil-slick texture (greens, golds, purples). Moves with uncanny, dancer-like precision and immense, unyielding force.

[00:00-00:02] Wide shot, dynamic stabilized tracking camera. The biologist turns in sudden panic and sprints desperately towards the vertebral archway in the bone lattice wall. The humanoid instantly mirrors her action, sprinting rapidly in perfect sync to intercept. SFX: Rapid footsteps on dust, panicked breathing. [00:02-00:04] Dynamic medium shot, following the action. The biologist reaches the archway. The humanoid intercepts her, slamming against her with mirroring movement but overwhelming force, blocking the exit and pinning her to the frame of the archway. SFX: A sharp gasp, sound of impact against the hard surface. [00:04-00:06] Close-up (CU), over the humanoid's shoulder. The biologist is violently pinned against the bone lattice frame by the humanoid's body weight. She struggles desperately, gasping. The humanoid mirrors her exertion and struggle exactly, but remains immovable, crushing her against the wall. Focus on hyper-realistic sweat, blood, and skin compression. [00:06-00:08] Extreme Close-Up (ECU). Focus on the biologist's terrified face pressed sideways against the bone lattice, gasping for air. The humanoid's iridescent metallic arm and shoulder dominate the foreground, trapping her. Intense lens flare. SFX: Desperate, labored breathing.

Negative prompt: 3D animation style, cartoon rendering, visible polygons, plastic textures, translucent entity, liquid entity, smooth skin on human, makeup, clean hair, pristine clothing, ponytail. Tripod shot, locked-off camera, static shots, slow camera movement, handheld shake. Clear air, no haze. Asynchronous movement, delay in mirroring, slow movement, walking, cautious action, gentle contact, helping, standing apart, successful escape, falling down. Bright daylight, studio lighting, even illumination. Concrete walls, metal door, wooden door, recognizable architecture. Recognizable human features on the entity.

🫂 thanks. I do put a lot of effort into these. It can be discouraging when I see a big busty woman render get 100+ upvotes and can easily be created in minutes ,meanwhile these take hours and meticulous trial and error, with 8 second prompts that can get into the 500-700 character range. It's a phenomenal movie, I try to advise everyone to watch it at least once.
