Connecting shots, B-roll., this Seedance will be amazing. This is from perspective of a long time insider in Hollywood.
The neutering of the models is real and sad for Seedance. The best guys to watch are the traditional film makers that are integrating it into their workflow. Just like writing, images, and music, you still need the artistic eye to distinguish good from bad and provide decent prompts.
They've already demonstrated their ability to produce without AI, and then they are supercharged WITH AI.
I have a family member that is going to start a Master´s in graphic design next semester... I have tried to convince them that it is a waste of time. Companies with massive marketing departments are going to be a thing of the past soon. I honestly cannot believe how good Seadance 2.0 is. What the hell is it going to be doing in another 6 months...
Graphic design is WAY more than just slapping together (however beautifully) product pix and some text. The various types of color-blindness must be taken into account. Multiple levels of product size must be accounted for: how many self-designed book covers have you seen that look amazing -- or just fine -- in a large version, yet are illegible on a small screen or print version in the back of a magazine?
All these graphic production (and other) AIs may be astonishing at production; but if the 'designer' doesn't know anything about the human eye and brain, and their reactions to good, bad, and indifferent design, then 'prompting' by rank amateur designers may well be a continuation of low-level AI-slop.
Think of the brilliant and astonishing books and writing and music and graphics Vox Day is producing. Could Claude Athos write such books on 'his' own? Can any AI create musical or art masterpieces without the talented musical (human) designer starting the shepherding the process?
Think of Michelangelo designing the Pieta or the David. Could his students, who did some of the chipping of rock under his direction, have created such masterpieces? Their work under the Master... was a Master's degree in graphic design... AND production. Don't confuse the creator with the production tools?
All well and good, but there is literally no need beyond idiotic corporate credentialism (i.e. gatekeeping) to invest the kind of time/money that a master's degree requires anymore.
True -- IF a person is willing to do the reading and studying on his or her own! Agree completely on credentialism, but you hafta know what you hafta know!
Such as NOT knowing anything about web conventions -- so putting things anywhere on the page and frustrating your customers. (Usetah be:) Everyone "knows" that clicking on the logo in the top left of a webpage takes you to the home page. And Search is somewhere near the top on the right-hand side.
Most people don't KNOW they know it , but they do ("web conventions"). And they get frustrated when some hot-cool-new designer decides to show off by doing brand-new-cool placements -- so anyone at the page has the hunt around to FIND the home page link.
Super old book on web (and other design) conventions called "Don't Make Me Think!"
