Bitarazzi Short Film: Imperfect Awesomeness🌱

I want to give you spoilers but you must watch it first. Here's basically what happened.

Firstly, this project was for fun.

  • The lyrics where generated by Claude first with a prompt including what we were after.
  • The music was generated by Suno after telling it we wanted something that sounded like "Paparazzi" by Lady Gaga, shortly after coining the term "bitarazzi"
  • The videos and images were generated by Gemini and I ended up developing a character, or two.

I found myself creating a story with meaning in the video, that related to my own life as I pieced it together in 10 second spurts (3 ten second videos per day on Gemini free tier, don't mess up or you have to wait!)

AI is not all evil or bad. To me, I see it as a creative outlet. It's fun. Sure (Spoiler alert!!!!!) she might be plugging the ethernet cord in upside down, but the idea is generally communicated in a decent way.

I completed this in the mornings as I had time over the course of a few weeks. I could refine it forever, but I think it's cool how fast you can buzz along with a creative project/prototype/idea with AI. So cool. They didn't have this when I was a teenager!

I did actual human editing in adobe premier to string it together in a way that semi made sense! Hope you like the bitarazzi debut, haha!

Thank you @trickell for your help and inspiration! <3

Dear Anna, 🍿📽️

Thank you so much for sharing your inspiring journey with the "Bitarazzi" short film! 📽️🍿

I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how truly creative and brilliant your work is. Your success in seamlessly blending AI tools (like Claude, Suno, and Gemini) with your own essential human touch in Adobe Premiere is remarkable.

Your philosophy of "Imperfect Awesomeness" is not only refreshing but also deeply empowering for independent creators. It beautifully proves that technology is at its best when it serves human creativity, not replaces it.

Wishing you continued success, joy, and many more awesome creative projects ahead! Keep shining and inspiring us. 🎉🎬

With sincere appreciation,
😁🍿📽️🧊🌊🗻🎀

This is great! Lip sync would take it to the next level — the animation/voice mismatch is the one thing that breaks immersion in the section where the character sings.
