匚尺丨ㄒㄒ乇尺乙 -- An animated short created with AI

To celebrate the release anniversary of OpenAI's Dall.E, we are proud to introduce CRITTERZ, the first animated short film utilizing the generative AI power of Dall.E to design ALL the visuals -- every character, every background... basically the entire critterz world! These images were then handed to a talented team of Emmy award-winning animators in order to bring it all to LIFE!
The short was produced by Native Foreign, in collaboration with OpenAI.

You absolutely should remake this with Sora

[@jimheid9027]

So great to see this in widescreen form! *applause*

[@sent1s173]

This will be the starting point in the history of AI cartoons/movies!😮

[@uauou]

And then handrawing makes a comeback

[@char_art]

looser

[@hili72]

Next step: screenwriting and voicing by AI.

[@KimAlban]

Omg this is incredible!!!! Great work 😭

[@karenmaher2354]

This is a lot of fun to watch, I hope Blue gets an Oscar - it was excellently executed Bravo! Thanks for making my day!

[@trip_s1mulat0r]

Albert's seemingly winning the run for president of the forest lmfao

[@iamrobbechoi]

Awesome work.

[@natalka_hanaha]

1:37 Is that Rebecca from Cyberpunk? 🤣

[@CrispyBlackCat]

this character awesome i like it

[@ConsumReporter]

Thank you so much for sharing not only this wonderful story but showing how you created it. I sure hope AI creates an AI Oscar's category because you're going to win hands down.

[@nikolette4337]

Good job.

[@shouweihu8068]

I’m good

[@mrredfairy1]

Amazing!!!!.

[@larrymoremckenzie3029]

Could be a great help to save a lot of dissapearing Native American langauges!!!!! making storys and lessons.

[@sbsuccessfactor]

Loved this! V cute! :-)

[@MagicOfBarca]

So good

[@MrAlejo58]

Atmospheric, beautiful, but the impression is that the characters make a minimum of movements. Most likely, we who make cartoons with more familiar methods will not be replaced soon. I remember how there were many stories that the computer will replace the animators. But somehow, without animators, the computer cannot animate.

[@Critterz-TV]

Agree... the limitations of the current technology meant for simplified action & settings (i.e. mostly conversation whilst sitting).

[@MattSmith8591]

So even AI is woke? No thanx!

[@jPup_]

Imagine being this sensitive about a cartoon 😂

[@OptimusTOM]

Where do we get the merch and paraphernalia?!

[@cnelson3788]

We need those lunchboxes!

[@High-Tech-Geek]

Great effort, but call me when the animations and lip syncing are created by AI, the script is entirely written by AI and the voices and scoring are 100% AI generated. Better AI can also generate 3D models. Let's travel through those spaces rather than just using parallax effects on flat AI generated images. This represents where we were about 2 years ago.

[@ChadicusVonRadicus]

Thanks downer Dan

[@High-Tech-Geek]

@@ChadicusVonRadicus this just wasn't impressive. Good luck getting another image of any of those creatures. Why do you think every creature is only shown in exactly one image?

[@serloinz]

all those things you mentioned can currently be done via AI ..it's just some are not really there just yet like the quality of the music but the rest are pretty close if not 100%. but i agree about this seaming a little old already

[@High-Tech-Geek]

@@serloinz Yes. That was my point. This project is an example that ignores all the current innovations. But, perhaps I'm being too harsh. It does seem rare to see real world completed projects that use AI as the primary means of creation. Most examples we see are just that; stand alone demo examples (Corridor Crew's anime short that uses some AI comes to mind as another completed project). So kudos to the crafters here for finishing a project and providing a fleshed out example.

[@Clarity-808]

Yeah, nobody’s calling you
