Small delay and thoughts on AI clips?
🕑 Added 2025-02-02 15:54:59 +0000 UTC Hey all! Firstly I just want to let you guys know that the Swishy comic editor SwishStream has caught the sick, so the Got ya Girl drop has been delayed, but we are aiming to do a double drop of it and the next Splintered Cells drop together in a few days instead 😊Feel free to wish them a little comment for a speedy recovery! 🧡💜 Speaking of Splintered Cells, I've been tossing up the idea of using AI generation to bolster the comics for a while now, especially after seeing other TG/TF creators experimenting with it like TroubleTRO (who if you don't know has some fantastic FtF shifting comics out there if you haven't checked them out!) The main reason I haven't really tried it yet is essentially for the moral reasons I'm sure you guys have heard a million times over when AI "art" is discussed.In terms of complete "text to picture/video" generation, I have no real interest in that and there's a million people already doing that for shifting and possession content, so I'll stick to my comics. However what I have examples of here is some test of one of the shapeshifting sequences that dropped last week for Splintered Cells 3, trying out the 'frame to frame' type generation.I'm much more comfortable with THIS kind of generation personally because it's based on MY art that I made rather than using someone else's, but it's still a grey area because of the argument of how training data is acquired for this kind of thing. So I want to ask YOU guys... what do you think about this? How do you feel about this sort of content alongside the comics? And I want to be VERY clear with these next points as I'm sure you're wondering: -This is NOT to replace the shifting sequences that are currently in the comics, this is alongside it. The comics will still feature the swishy edited versions you all know and love! -I only aim to possibly include one of these per drop max, could be some shifting like this, could be part of a possession sequence, could be just a nice shot that I like and add some motion to for funzies, could be nothing at all in a drop cos I just wasn't feeling it. -This ISN'T replacing my animation projects either, that is still on the go! The animation project just reached another speed hump that I need time to work out that I just haven't had yet and I'm hoping to look at real soon since the holiday season is now over 😊 My last point would be that the only downside/hurdle I currently have is I can't include these in the PDFs as these are vid clips or gifs, so they might just have to be placed beside the PDF reader on the website (downloadable) that you then select and view separately?... If anyone has a better idea on how to incorporate them, let me know! Let me know what you guys think of all this! Much love, Nexy xx
