I have continued to experiment with LUMA AI with some extremely mixed results.
If you have never tried it you can do text to vieo or image to video. I have mostly been trying image to video as I want to control the direction and keep things a bit within my style. It has been rather challenging as quite often it's a gamble wether or not it will actually animate an image, or just do a little zoom in / out (which is a waste of credits!)
This one however did turn out pretty cool:
This will be part of an artwork I am currently composing...

here's a good example where I was trying different prompts to make this ghost float but it just kept zooming:
it's interesting and all but it's just not at all what I was asking for :)
More on LUMA, they made an update today which seems like it adds some cool functionality but a lot of it seems broken and refuses to animate any images for me and just spits out a still image. I am in the discord trying to get help but so far not so good :( Hopefully I will be able to get it working again, I'm curious if anyone here is using it and having the same problems, if so pls let me know!

Could you share the prompt with all of us? I thought it was quite interesting and creative.
Sure, I generated the initial still image in Leonardo and I'd have to check to be 100% sure but I think I wrote, a strange creature, black and white, minimalism . I then animated it using luma as a second step and used editing software afterwards to adjust the contrast and levels a bit 👌
Although it's not what you specifically wanted it turned out great, especially the first one. As for the second one, it would have been great if it floated, I'm sure you'll find someone who knows how to... I wish I could help you with this. But still the results are very good!🤗
AI is definitely very hit or miss and sometimes you just have to keep rolling the dice and changing a few words to try to get what you want. At least for luma anyways, there are so many different softwares and models and some are probably better than others!
It is true and the more attempts, the more variants can arise and the more interesting they can be.
Hi,@juliakponsford ACTIVE
You must ask the AI for what you want, is the trick I have learned.
The ghost flies slowly in the room
Use slowly because the AI sometimes makes very rough movements.
Regarding video generators
Kling AI and runway ai, their paid versions, are the best.-
thanks for the tip, I have tried so many things LOL
The image of the long-legged bird is actually beautiful if I must say, it looks "alien" enough to me 😊
Yessss a very nice alien bird 👽
Super Good!
Always so creative!
Keep trying with the ghost... and if you don't succeed I'm going to float it myself! I'll give him a fright... hahaha.... 😁
I did get another one to float using the exact same wording but it won't work for this one funny enough 🤷
Some things cannot be forced. He doesn't want to and that's it! Simple.
😂🤣
