This is my final animation for which I used Luma, being the best at keeping the 2D characters and backgrounds, and not turning them into a 3D hybrid like other AI models, which eventually don't even look like my original characters. It also does parallax and fills the missing parts very well, and does not add weird and random stuff in the video. Unfortunately, Luma doesn't have lip-sync. So I used something else, not completely satisfied, but for now, it works. This is my first animation with this type of complexity, so there is room for learning and improving.

Took a long time, but now it's done, I am thinking of adding a bit more polishing to it because the artstyle jumps around between shots, and I am looking for ways to have the style consistent. But at least I finished something

You might remember the little clip I filmed with my grandkids and shared back in early December. I said I’d try turning it into a cartoon… and I finally did. Here it is!

Ok - I am sooooo excited. Just saw the new update on Vidu Q3 Available on Galaxy! So if you use Galaxy, you can now do Sakuga This is the prompt I used: "Epic explosive sword fight, intense camera moves, explosive moves, anime, sakuga style, intense." If you use Galaxy, try using my image, or the one by @Rina Waithera , or one of your own, and go to: 1. AI Video Generator 2. Select Image to Video 3. Click on the model, and search for "Vidu", and select Vidu Q3 4. Use a prompt that asks for intense sakuga style animation This is the prompt I used: "Epic explosive sword fight, intense camera moves, explosive moves, anime, sakuga style, intense." NOTE: It is relatively "expensive", it costs around 1.28M Credits for 8 sec in Galaxy ($1.28 USD) And directly in Vidu.com it appears to be a tiny bit cheaper... at $1.13 USD for 8 sec animation.
