Twitter, as always, were furious when they saw Anime Rock Paper Scissors. But at the end of the day, Corridor Crew still had to hire artist to make their own anime style and not reliant on Vampire Hunter D datasets. Most of the time the AI only provides somewhat the "anime style rotoscoping", but the artistic directions are still human made.

The funniest part is, they got the Bancroft Brothers (Tom & Tony Bancroft, they worked on Disney films like Mulan, Lilo & Stitch, etc.) & they loved their work. Twitter's garbage opinions on it are actively shut down by 2 actual professional legends.

There's actually a video reaction from an old school animator for Disney, who worked on some of the old renaissance era animation. He talked about how there was a very similar fear going on around when Digital media was blossoming and Photoshop was threatening to take everyone's jobs just like how AI is perceived to do the same today. He actually fully embraces the advent of AI and is excited for it's future application. He also very wisely points out the very obvious fact. You cannot stop progress. And it is best to look forward to what can be built with the new tools made available. And yup, they trained it on Vampire Hunter D.

What's the name of that reaction? I'd like to watch it. Also, they used Vampire Hunter D only for the first episode, for the second one they hired an artist to fill a new dataset.

"The creator dealt us the same hand of cards; I just played mine better." "I will not share the crown." "You will never wear it!" Just a few minutes in, and we're already getting hit with badass lines.

No one can survive the "got 'em" hand!... 👌😂🤣

okay in phillips defense , the heir to the throne was already decided before the father died , remember , at 8:23 , philip said "HE challenged me" not "I challenged him" the father was trying to get phillip out of the picture so jules could get the crown

The thing about corridor crew is they can capture the feel of anime even without those AI filter, the race car or the fidget spinner one are really good without feeling cringe.

The opening for the sequel is original and I hope a full version gets released at some point.

On the first one they did use Vampire Hunter D to train the AI, but on the second one they paid an artist to create art references to train the AI because of the controversy of using the other art, not something they had made. That's why it looks a bit different. The actually tried to use AI and not steal someone else art. You should really watch the behind the scenes.

Not just cause of the controversy, the first was more of a proof of concept. I'm sure they would've progressed to using a real artist anyways. The first one was definitely still "transformative" no matter what. Still, I'm definitely not a fan of the aspect of using someone else's art for training :/

Possibly a JoJoVerse we didn't know about. 😂 Jokes aside, how they did the story is what really sold it to me. 😂

The positive response from legendary animators was only validation I trust not the twitter mob

Yup, the backgrounds are made in UE.

The style of Vampire Hunter D, yes. I, too, recognised it immediately even though it's been like 20 years since I watched it. The lovely nostalgia

I think it's hyped that you're doing both of them in the same video, feels more like a complete package

10:50 Yeah Stable Diffusion can do that rather easily. I myself have the model for it and it is surprizingly stable. It is rather fun to see how characters would look in that time period.

I'm excited for episode 3

I watched a video with an anime artist reacting to both part and he prefeared the 1st one because that one was anime designe. Which is a fair criticisum since the artist that they hired is a traditional cartoon artist and not an anime artist. It doesn't make things bad it's just an interesting thing that stood out to me as well.

Uuh, i did not expect seeing something from corridor crew up here, but i welcome it.

We could get a sequel to Ralph bakshis 70s lord of the rings with this tech

I think Corridor got too much hate for this. Ultimately they just wanted to do a fun experimental project. I liked that when an old Disney animator reacted to this video he was very appreciative of the fact that they really just wanted to do something cool and even admitted that if they had kind of tech back in the day they would 100% use it for their movies.

​@@Kaimax61the amount of time and effort they put in is way more than just making an AI rotoscope characters. They easily could've just acted out every scene and essentially apply an AI filter on it but they didn't, they actually used a lot of creative and impactful effects. As a small vfx studio to make an anime in the traditional way with the shots they wanted to get would've taken countless hours and money, the whole reason they wanted to create was a tool for smaller creators to use and express their ideas.

​@@Kaimax61 You know it doesn't help when people (who usually aren't even animators or artists in the first place) go around and gaslight actual artists from using software that happens to have AI implementations. It's even worse when said people don't actually understand how some of the software works such as Cascadeur, which while is AI assisted it doesn't completely remove the animators job since the animator is still working on posing, adjusting and timing. (The AI just removes the need for inbetweening/graph adjusting since it's all physics based animation). As an animator myself, I'll be the first to tell you that AI is here to stay. Automation happened to the automotive industry, food industry, arms industry and logistics. It was bound to happen to the creative arts sooner or later.

@@FrostbiteDigitalI used Cascadeur for a biut. It is very neet altough needs a lot of fine tuning when you are not trying to go with a regular human model.

And while a lot of extra ddons were creaqted to hel with the creation process it still has a lot of limitation.

The potential for adaptive storytelling and such that AI of this variety interests me greatly for what it could do for crafting video game worlds. Like, imagine Cyberpunk 2077 but with an entire city interior. That'd be awesome imo.

Not really, AI is just a part of the work flow.

this anime is actually ai generated

The whole Corridor Crew's AI cartoon thing is funny to me. In effect they figured out a way to automate rotoscoping. Kind of neat, but not exactly as revolutionary as they might think. As an example, Joel Haver has a video about how he animates his own videos and it's the same core idea - automated rotoscoping. The only meaningful difference is the specifics of the technology used to achieve this goal. Joel uses Ebsynth, a program which breaks down an image painted over a keyframe and tries to assemble the rest of the shots around that. This method gives Joel a lot of control when it comes to deciding what the final product looks like, but it also demands much more work from him and VERY prone to failure. Corridor Crew use generative AI to effectively generate every frame of the video based on the footage they make. This method gives them much less control over the final product, requires them to actually invest in better props and costumes, but also is significantly less demanding when it comes to artist labor. People treat them like they are the devil, but in reality they are just morons that think they invented the wheel after making one out of copper.

With this method this animation style might be viable. Because from what I remember it did not last long simply because of the time it took to draw every frame over an actor.. But I might be wrong since my knowledge on rotoscoping is surface level.

Hey dude, just wanted to say that the only reason they were able to make this was dude to stolen animation data using softwares that steal people’s art. AI “art” and AI in general is hurting a lot of people and taking jobs away. And while their fellow VFX artists are fighting for fair pay, they are contributing to the problem.

the first video they made, the AI was fed vampire hunter d pictures but they were very explicit and open that they did this and only did it because it was meant to be a proof of concept of what the tools could do. In the second episode they paid an artist to create his own unique art style based around these characters. I understand the concern that AI can "take artists jobs" but at the same time AI is nothing without the creative vision and intention behind it. What they are trying to do is make a process that's more accessible to smaller creators who want to make cartoons but don't have the time to draw every single frame.

Someone recently created an entire film on their own using blender without any stolen data. And a 14 year old did a whole animation sequence in Across the Spider Verse. There is no excuse for being lazy. Anyone can do it. Calling yourself an AI “artist” or AI “animator” is the same as calling yourself a chef because you microwaved pre cooked meals.
