You can now make AI video that's "filmed" in a real location 🤯 Like this Stormtrooper's fundraising vlog that tours @a16z's SF office - and looks just like the real thing! It's easy to put AI characters in your own office, home, or vacation spot. How to do it 👇
This uses Veo 3 image-to-video. Easy way: upload a frame of your location. Prompt the character(s) you want to add, the direction of their movement, and what you want them to do or say. My prompt for this: "stormtrooper youtuber walks from the right into the frame past the chairs. he then pauses, turns back to the camera, and whispers 'It's time!' " (I cropped the beginning for time reasons)
To make it more complex, you can play around with framing. Use the "fast jump/cut" prompt (from @MartinNebelong) to take a different angle on a scene from a single image. I'm so impressed by how it inferred what a selfie from someone on the couch would look like. Prompt: fast jump / cut from frame 1. pov selfie-style vlog of a male stormtrooper youtuber sitting in one the couch in frame 1. he says "false alarm, I got here early. I'm researching the investor I'm going to meet with. I think her name is Justine?"
