Our newest AI film solved some of the hardest challenges in AI filmmaking.
From natural handheld camera movement to realistic firelight and detailed snow textures.
ANERNEQ, our new 20-minute Arctic drama, is now open source.
Every prompt and asset is public.
What if AI could help bring the golden age of 2D animation back to cinemas?
I brought this incredible pencil test by legendary Disney animator #MiltKahl for Pinocchio to life using AI.
There’s something really special about seeing these rough drawings come alive with a 3D look. And I think that’s where AI could become genuinely useful for animation: letting animators focus more on acting, timing, and motion instead of polishing every tiny detail, like the eyes or nose, as you can see in the rough pencil test used here.
AI won’t replace 2D animation. It could help bring it back to the big screen (or Netflix).

I don’t like it when people say:
“[Insert industry] is cooked.”
But when you can do things like this with animation, it’s hard not to wonder if the animation industry really is cooked.
I took an unfinished animation test by the legendary and incredibly talented James Baxter

BLENDER MCP + KIMI K3 JUST DID THIS
Top is a basic gray-shaded scene inside Blender. Bottom is the final cinematic result.
> same car
> same driver
> same camera path
> completely different level of realism and motion
Kimi K3 controlled the scene through Blender MCP.
The gap between simple 3D and final shot keeps getting shorter.

this morning I taught the 3D team at my agency how I make my videos
we worked together on a new video in a 3D CGI style, and it reminded me how much I love that render
character made on Midjourney and animated with @runwayml
Bro… el ingeniero que CREÓ Claude Code soltó un video de 28 minutos y me voló la cabeza
Olvídate de los prompts genéricos que todo el mundo copia y pega
Este tipo te enseña exactamente cómo sacar el 300% de Claude: archivos CLAUDE.md, memoria permanente, sesiones paralelas y trucos de prompting que nadie te cuenta
Pagué cursos de 300 dólares que no llegan ni a la mitad de lo que él explica en los primeros 10 minutos
Y lo mejor: es gratis
No importa si estás empezando o si ya programas todo el día…
después de ver esto vas a usar la IA de una forma que ni sabías que existía
Guárdalo. Vas a volver mil veces 🔖
I'm still convinced that you can get a better acting performance with AI by generating dialogue first and generating the video to sync with the audio.
As audio generation is so much cheaper you're also able to validate the performance for a few cents before using credits for the video.
Midjourney 8.2 -> SeeDream 5.0 -> SeedAudio 1.0 -> SeeDance 2.0
wow.. AI agents can do 4K VFX for you now
connect Kling MCP to OpenClaw or Hermes, the agent controls your computer to key green screen, replace bg, swap actors, add VFX by itself
here’s how to install and use it:
NVIDIA just dropped another revolution in AI animation — real-time and open source.
It's called ARDY. You type what the character should do — and it just does it. While moving. Change the text mid-walk, click a waypoint, add keyframes — it re-plans instantly. No baking, no waiting.
And this time they dropped EVERYTHING at once: code, weights, working demo. Fully ready to run locally.
I tested it. Honestly — shock. Feels like Kimodo × MotionBricks: that amount of control (text + constraints + trajectories), but live. And it fits in 20–24GB of VRAM.
I didn't expect animation to move this fast — I thought 3D would get solved first. It's robotics pushing it: the same model drives their humanoid robots.

AI ile iyi video yapanların bir sırrı var ve KİMSE BUNU KONUŞMUYOR! Birçoğunu gözlemledim ve hepsinde aynı şey var.
Adamların sırrı çekim terimlerini çok detaylı şekilde bilmeleri kankam. Çoğunun çekim geçmişi var zaten. Aşağıda paylaşacağım ücretsiz sitede bu konuda her şeyi öğreneceksiniz;
Çekim açıları, kamera hareketleri her şeyin çok basit anlatımını yapmışlar ve örnek promptunu koymuşlar:

I didn't think I'd ever say this...
But I think video editing just changed forever
and so does the rules of marketing 🤯
The video on the left is raw
The one on the right is edited almost entirely by AI
No hidden prompts No secret workflow
I just gave it the footage and let it cook
[Comment- TOOL if you wanna try it out]
The bottleneck isn't going to be editing anymore
It's going to be knowing what deserves to be edited
i.e Storytelling--- but more on that later
(time to brush up those skills)
But I genuinely didn't think I'd say this so soon...
But I think AI just changed video editing forever, yes forever
The info the model is "gemini omni flash"
I rest my case, what do you think?

Seedance 2.0 prompts 👇
Raw found footage style, amateur handheld smartphone video recording a real intense battle between superhuman fighters, heavy natural camera shake and jitter from the operator's unsteady hands and movement, low-fi consumer camera quality with visible grain, compression artifacts, motion blur during fast pans, single continuous uncut take with no edits or cuts, paparazzi-style close but cautious recording in broad daylight on an open rocky terrain with dust and scattered debris, natural lighting, realistic reactions from the camera as it follows the chaotic action.
[IMAGE REFERENCES]
No external references. Maintain perfect visual consistency for both fighters' exact appearance, hair, body type, clothing and proportions throughout the entire 15-second continuous clip.
[TIMELINE SECOND BY SECOND]
0-3s: [Continuous Shaky Handheld] The shaky phone captures a bald fighter with a third eye on his forehead, white headband and green gi facing a tall athletic woman with long black hair in a high ponytail and red battle armor. They circle each other. The woman dashes in with fast kicks. The bald fighter blocks and counters with precise palm strikes. The camera shakes with every exchange.
3-6s: The bald fighter fires a bright triangular energy blast from his forehead. The woman dodges at the last second and the blast explodes against the ground. She immediately counters with a spinning kick to his side. The handheld footage shakes hard from the explosion and the operator moves quickly to stay with the action.
6-9s: The woman grabs the bald fighter's arm and throws him over her shoulder. He flips and lands on his feet, then fires a rapid volley of energy blasts from both hands. The woman weaves between them with incredible agility. The camera pans and tilts constantly with heavy natural shake and motion blur.
9-12s: The bald fighter charges and they clash in close combat again. The woman lands a powerful knee to his stomach and follows with an elbow to the back of his head. The shaky camera moves in closer, the operator clearly excited and breathing hard.
12-15s: The bald fighter staggers but recovers and fires one final powerful blast. The woman crosses her arms and blocks it, the energy pushing her back several meters and kicking up dust. The continuous footage keeps rolling as the dust settles and both fighters catch their breath, the camera still shaking naturally.
[STYLE & QUALITY BOOSTERS]
Raw consumer found footage aesthetic, heavy handheld instability and micro-shakes, natural motion blur from camera movement, realistic lens flare and slight overexposure on energy flashes, coherent superhuman physics and impacts visible through dust and debris, amateur recording feel with no stabilization, no text, no overlays, no watermarks, continuous single shot, documentary raw video style.
Handheld camera motion for Seedance 2.0
I hate blender so I stage it on my iphone.
You stage the scene (open source link below) and can walk around it and capture real camera movement in 3D space, then Seedance populates the scene.
Handheld camera motion and realistic shake is hard to describe or prompt to AI. The iphone’s ARKit is super precise with motion tracking and you can record complex scenes as a one man studio.
Here is the AI filmmaking workflow:
1. Set up blocking in the 3D space
2. Record camera motion
3. Generate a starting image with location and characters
4. Feed image and video to Seedance
This was a fun build with claude code. Happy if others want to build on it.
Seedance 2.0 is insane.
Blender previs is having a moment in AI filmmaking for a reason.
I wanted to see how far I could push the workflow beyond a simple camera move in an ambush scene.
The workflow:
1. Make a start image in Midjourney
2. Block it out in Blender, animate
We just open-sourced 3DREAL !
A new render-to-real IC-LoRA for LTX-2.3 from fal: turn any 3D / CG / game render into high 3d render, photorealistic, film-quality video, keeping your exact composition and camera move using the first frame.
