“You made nothing” is cope. We write the script, storyboard the shots, design every prop, every set, the costumes, the hair & makeup, light the shots, block the actors, operate the camera, add SPFX & VFX. Prompting is a microcosm. This is simply a new tool for animated film.

I’m a 42 year old former filmmaker. I made this in 3 days with $39 in credits because it was fun to channel the creativity I had in my 20s It entailed writing, directing, cinematography, art direction, SPFX, editing & sound design The kids will rock our world with these tools❤️

Added some shots to "Rainbow Sun" (my Flux workflow); a music video clip I'll be uploading to AI MVS - OCME #1-upload - musicvideoshow.ai. I haven't had a lot of time to push content since the summer, but hopefully in early '26 I'll finally get some full length music vids wrapped up! Song made in Udio.

For filmmakers struggling w/ views: Our first post hit 50K views on X then flatlined Shadowbanned Here's what we learned: PART 1: Even if you censor your video, you MUST change the first 10 seconds X matches content via hash. Same hash = same ban. No exceptions PART 2:
