This is fantastic, very down to earth, no BS, love it
Big thanks!
Amazing work. By incorporating 3D tools like blender, the possibilities are endless. For example you can create an hdri using the same photo and have amazing lighting fast.
Yes, you are right. That's how it will be.
i cant believe your content is for free . you are amazing man .God bless you
I appreciate that! Well I do have a member section with a lot of hidden videos...
The golden mirror/reflector brought so much to the scene.
Yes it did!
Thank you for another Real & AI photo merge episode~
Thanks 😃
Great!!!
grazie mille
this is actually insane, i am sure you gonna be even better at it over time
👍🏽
Amazing shots here even on simple subjects. Thanks for doing a demo on this one! This just brings another level on diffusion models and shows that you can use certain arts alongside AIs and use them as tools for improvement. I'll try this out on other image AIs, been on Bluewillow for a while now.
Yes, go for it. It's fun!
This is really a great shot, congratulation!
I might have preferred to see something like a surreal sea at night, deep blue/turquoise, with golden trees or fish to match the label.
But I love the details on the lighting.
Believe in or not, we generated a dark sea blueish background but for some reason we picked this background because we got the light a bit better.
I have a silly question. With AI can you upload your own image and build on it or do you use the generated image and combine it with your own to create. Thanks
Not on Midjourney you can't, maybe on other AI tools
SD + controlnet. But anyway there is a problem with shadows and lights 😢
Photoshop, generative fill
Many Thanks!
You're welcome!
Instantly recognized Karol's innitial photo of the bottle from facebook/instagram. Nice to see the human behind the work!
As for the final result: this time, I prefer the non-AI version. It's beautiful! The AI background looks too "cartoony" for my personal taste. The brightest rock formation has a bulky shape that my eyes don't like and the overall texture is off. It almost looks like a B-movie prop crafted out of foam.
The forest one from the last video worked much much better, imho
Couldn't agree more! That background was a bad and very fast spontaneous generated background... will be better next time 😁
@@botvidsson Also, you've said this before, too: we'll look at this in 2 years and roll our eyes at what we thought were the best results ^^
Exactly!
Cool! Kind of has a lighthouse feel! If we weren't looking for faults with the ai background, I think it wins. Adds context.
Ah, haven't thought about the lighthouse! Cool. Yes I agree, the idea with the background is great.
Awesome work! Karol seems like a nice guy too :D Loving this midjourney stuff. Except I'd LOVE to see something that is IMPOSSIBLE to do in real life using midjourney. Like actually get creative with it. Perhaps a bottle in lava flowing down a volcano ( okay not impossible but bloody hard!) Bottle falling from skyscraper looking down. ( not impossible but highly illegal.) Or something back in time either viking/roman times perhaps.
Thanks man. Yes, that's a great idea. Let's see what time will give. 😁
Karol looks like a cast from Vikings
Indeed!! 😁
Thanks guys from London
ok
I prefer the classic version here, the main subject looks more beautiful and sophisticated. This AI art is heavy and the blur too fake.
I agree!
Yep Thats working
👍🏽
FYI. Lightroom has Live View
@@noelcastley-wright5757 Yes, I know.
@@botvidsson I have both Capture One and Lightworks, depending on what I am doing. Are you still preferring Capture One?
Capture One is the best when it comes to tethered photography. I prefer Lightroom to edit RAW photos.
@@botvidsson Thanks. I stopped using Capture One because I too found the editing better and quicker in LRC. The masking power of LR sped up the workflow. For Tethered, Capture One was always the better option. The one process I still think is stronger in Capture One is the skin tone and skin texture controls for beauty. But I have found plugins for LRC that work really well… Do you have any recommendations for Lightroom Plugins? Do you use any? Good idea for a video if you do 🙂
Also this dudes calling AI a fad, saying "shame on you" and asking for copyright are better ignored, this is a new tool full of potencial
Thanks man!
I think the question regarding whether you have copyright to the image you created is valid, though!
@@RomanSkateboarding This is just a test
@@filipet.4551 What is just a test? AI is here to stay and depending on the program and the way you use it (commercially) it already is a bit tricky when it comes to copyright issues
I think @Filipe T. meant that the photo tutorial is just a test. Regarding the copyright it is a bit complicated. For the moment you can't copyright AI's if you don't change the image in a way that the AI part is not the main part of the "art piece". In this case I consider the work around photographing the bottle will by far be the main "art piece" and the AI part is secondary. So I will stick out my nose and say that I can copyright this image. A court has to decide if I'm right or wrong, it's on case by case basis.
Martin, vad är det för för papper? jag använder vanligt skisspapper.
Det är exakt denna: www.cameranu.nl/nl/p673065/savage-trans-lum-152-x-549cm-mediumweight
@@botvidsson tack snälla
Is such a work protected by copyright?
Hard to say. Depends.
Didn’t you guys missed to light the bottle on top of the neck. It kind of disappeared in the background
Do you mean on the left side or?
@@botvidsson yes
In my world there's no need to bash light all around every product. Then there's a risk of over-lighting the product and that would not fit, especially for the AI background image.
This what people are saying, AIs cannot easily replace artists. Yes, you could easily produce AI images, but to be abe to actually produce something from scratch and even post-processing is not something that can be easily produced by a machine. Diffusion models such as Bluewillow is fun and have a lot of uses but I don't see it as an artist.
true
I've been saying this from the start, I work as a retoucher and other retouchers ask me whether i'm worried about AI. I always say no as we will be getting so much work from this. I cannot wait to see how firefly is when it integrated inside photoshop as well.
It's is about giving creatives extra tools to make even better work, like digital cameras didn't stop people making a living using film. It's good to have options.
Hello Martin..
thank You for the great job you do..
Aren’t you not worried about what this AI will change all the image making rules in the market in the short medium term?..
Don’t you think is gonna be the end of illustration and photography professions?..
Not immediately, but let’s imagine in one year time or two..
Everyone will be able to make any image themselves.. This technology is going further month by month.. with new and powerful features..
Soon also product photography will be heavily affected by this..
Am I too pessimistic?..
Unfortunately I think you are right. I really wonder what will happen to photography like we do. A lot will change for sure, many types of product photography jobs will disappear. That’s why I want to start exploring and learn so I’m “in” when the new AI image era will come.
@@botvidsson Thank you Martin.. I appreciate your opinion.. I'm also exploring Mid-jorney and experimenting with it.. Some incredible results are already possible.. something that only one year ago we could just be dreaming.. The thing is that it seems to me that sooner or later (not much later I'm afraid) most of the potential buyers and clients will be producing their images themselves.. no matter how we will be into this system.. Of course there will be some space left in the coming months for good professionals because many people are not able to add what we can.. but it's just a matter of time and AI will be doing it all.. I'm very optimistic by nature Martin.. but here I can't manage to be so.. I really hope to be wrong.. It's like a pandemia.. after the human Covid.. we just were missing the artificial intelligence one.. I apologize with all the friends who will read this.. I don't want to add worries to people.. But I needed to talk with Martin which is for me the most clever photographer on UA-cam and his opinion means a lot.. We will keep fighting anyway... Good luck to all of us.. 🙂
@@botvidsson this is the correct mind set to have!
👍🏽
Love the photography but man, I am sure burned out on everything being about A.I. lately.
Understandable. But this is just the beginning I'm afraid 😎
Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of too.
You'd have to be worried being a camera manufacturer (among other things)
Ai will be able to make whatever you want just with text.
Cameras will only be used for capturing raw real world data i suspect.
哈哈哈哈 你的说话风格很有意思 那种 节奏感 ～ 哈哈哈
😁
I am old school this mid journey stuff is a fad like last years NFT fad.
AI in general I doubt is a fad.
a fad..really? Sorry, that's a really bad take, it shows that you don't really understand Ai or NFT's.
@@seansk82 AI isn’t going anywhere but crappy drawings of monkeys (NFT’s) are worthless and done! 😂 Yes NFT tech has other applications but people who bought into the hype last year, bought a JPEG and lost all their money made a big mistake!
shame on you
What?
@@botvidsson being an ai "art" apologist
I can understand why you may not be as enthusiastic about AI art as I am, but I believe that it presents a fascinating and innovative opportunity for artistic expression. AI art allows for the creation of art that was previously impossible, and it challenges traditional notions of what art can be. Instead of feeling ashamed, I'm proud to be an AI art apologist and to support this exciting field of creativity.
I started following that @AllAboutAI channel also. Maybe good prompting is the future of photography?
Might be so
only that is not photography. Good prompting might be the future of... advertisement, for example. Different things.
