This is my 1st submission to the "2nd Annual AI Horror Film Competition" organized by #CuriousRefuge ending October 21st at Midnight PST.
This AI video is a homage to the old-school Halloween tales I watched on TV when I was young. But now with the magic of AI, I hope to bring back a bit of that nostalgia with my own modern twist.
The poem was generated using #CoPilot GPT4, with some alterations to rhyme smoother which was later fed into #Suno to generate the scary male speaking voice and some of the background sounds. Thank goodness to the recent Suno "Replace Section" feature to help alter a line so that it rhymed better. Did stem separation with #StemRoller app, in order to enhance the vocals more in the final edit.
All the individual images are generated using #Glif app with #Flux 1.1, then animated using #Kling image to video. Then upscale it to 4K with #TopazVideoAI.
Title design was entirely created using #Glif app with #Flux 1.1 then animated in #AdobeAfterEffects using a #MotionArray template.
Everything was edited in #CapCut, where I added some more sound effects (using #ElevenLabs) and stock effects, transitions, filters, color-grades, tracking, compositing in that app. Voilà!
