What Happens If You Drink The Grimace Shake?

Purple Man Thing!

Heyooo, how's it going guys? I wanted to share this short animation I made in blender that I also combine with A.i. again. The previous animation I made, wasn't really up to par I don't think. I'm kinda still experimenting combining animations with A.i. Finding the balance between the 2 is a bit strange.

I ended up using the new Runway Gen 2 program and I gotta say, the updated version of the program is pretty cool but also a bit scary. You don't have to use a video for the A.i. to reference it. This time you just type in a prompt and it spits out the video for you. Kinda crazy if you ask me. Obviously, again, it's not perfect because with this version of the program sometimes there's no movement in the videos when it generates it and also it gets the prompts wrong, sometimes. Overall it came up with some grotesque imagery (lol).

I do my normal animation as usual, but I would like to point out that I mounted the camera on the character's head. I think this is the 3rd time I've done something like this. Maybe, in the future I'll do more first person animations, hmmm I don't know, we'll have to see. 😉 The models I got are from SketchFab. Here's the Grimace Model, the Male Model, and the Alleyway Model. These are well made models, and as you can see the image above, the models have bones in them already. It definitely sped up the animation process. 😊
