Dave Clark’s Post

My latest work for Secret Level comes in the form of an epic surreal AI music video for Jagwar Twin. Check it out below!

Excited to announce I have officially begun pre-production on the first pilot installment of my AI Sci-Fi mini-film series based on my trailer “RE-IN” that I premiered a few months back. With where the tools are at it seemed like it was time to get the ball rolling. We are moving from “concept” to “content” extremely fast and I believe we are almost at the edge. Here is the announcement teaser for my AI series. The plan is to start with the first part of the story and see how it is received. I will be releasing them first hopefully on www.escape.ai and my YouTube with some behind the scenes content as well. John Gaeta Nem Perez Heiner Lippman Stay tuned. #neocinema #GreenlightYourself #Rein #aifilm #GenAI #aiart #generativeAI #scifi #filmmaking

Back home in Cali so here’s my first test with LivePortrait, using Hugging Face in combo with Runway Gen 3. I present "The Crash." Pretty cool tool for giving a bit more emotion to AI characters. I used my webcam to do the lipsync myself. That way I could move the eyes, and use facial expressions that translated to the AI image. BTS snippet at the end. Cheers. #Liveportrait #GenAI #Aivideo #gen3alpha #filmmaking

"Metamorph" A short experimental film by Dave Clark. Where do we go after... Created with Runway Gen 3 Alpha Text-to-Video. #GenAI #GenerativeAI #Experimentalfilm #aifilm

Does anyone else remember this Kids Variety Show growing up? Yeah probably not. That’s because this was created with Runway Gen 3 following a nightmare I had. The music was created by Udio and lyrics written by me and Claude AI. The future is indeed scary… and fun. Buckle up. #generativeAI #aivideo #runwaygen3

My last day here in Bucheon, South Korea, and reflecting on the amazing experience of being able to give children some advice on the future of filmmaking and AI. The look on their faces as they began to imagine any world they wanted was inspiring. As someone who grew up in education systems that didn’t provide much equipment and opportunity in the film and art space, I remember how challenging it was to pursue my passions. Wanting to be a filmmaker with no access to camera equipment was disheartening. I know there is a lot of controversy out there still regarding how this technology will effect all industries, but I think if you stop for just one second, and not only think about how it impacts us today, but instead how it might impact our children’s generation in a positive light I think it can only further the conversation. -Love
