My first crack at midjourney is proving to be amazing and frustrating but I believe this course will give me the knowledge to control and hopefully master image gen. What I'm experiencing so far is that it's essential to create a series of scenes that are consistent and this is where I expect nano banana will help me craft a series of shots to then take into video.
I've set myself a 10 seconds social brief titled The rat race where I will be editing a fast paced promo vid for Nike for practice. I'm honestly so pleased to experience the struggle in getting the right shots and video as it confirms that you still need to use creative skills and experience to get decent content. I had a conversation with a creative the other week whilst in London who said at the moment we are going through what he calls a race to the bottom, with non creatives using AI to put out below par creative and there are big brands doing this. He said this this was initially concerning but now believes it gives more opportunity for considered and well edited, crafted creative to stand out and I love that take. AI gives us so many opportunities but the phrase 'nothing worth doing is easy' still applies to those who don't want to join the race to the bottom
Here's my journey so far. Along way to go, including manual editing and motion graphics but I'm feeling inspired. Thanks for putting this course together Cameron I can't wait to see where it goes.
