Because of lack of resources, I’ve taken to “producing” my sketch ideas with AI. This is not a recommended solution. See that logo? AI generated. And yet I had to run it through photoshop to really get it right. Oh, and I just notice the exclamation point at the beginning is the wrong way for Spanish. There were a couple of things I already had to tweak, besides.
Now, as for Cake Hoarders, I'm starting to get the hang of it. I picked this material because it is a series of cuts to different people, so I avoid the stress of trying to keep the people looking the same from scene to scene. Based on budget, I had to bounce between creating "talking avatars" and "talking pictures." The first is a video of a person talking and motioning. The second is a very Clutch Cargo effect of lips moving on a picture.
The sketch was written for radio, but I actually switched some dialogue to simple visual reactions (the line "whoops" becomes simply a face-palm). And one verbal gag (about reusing material) I turned into a visual gag by actually reusing clips over and over. Subtle? Maybe. But jumping between different AI sites does create different levels of image quality. Still trying to figure out which site is giving me what I need. Some sites are incredibly stupid and not paying attention to me at all!
In the end, I think it comes off well. The writing is there, so I hope that carries the audience through.
