SUN DAY

A young girl wins a lottery that grants her the exclusive access to a rooftop view of the sun atop a giant building thousands of stories high. The event only happens once every 7 years on her planet, and she is locked in a room on the day of the event. Using the knowledge shared by her father, a maintenance worker, she must navigate the inner workings of the building to escape the room and race against the clock to the rooftop to see the sun.

This film was produced by TCL Studios, created by a talented team and enhanced by artificial intelligence. "Sund Day" is one of five films launched in 2024 for the TCL streaming app. In this project, I've worked as creative creator and lead compositor, utilizing tools such as Nuke, Runway, Magnific, and ComfyUI.

ELLA

Runway + Midjourney + ComfyUI + Flux + Topaz

In a futuristic Rio de Janeiro, Ella, a young Black woman, navigates a world where reality is no longer absolute. In a city transformed by advanced technology, virtual environments seamlessly blend with the real world, making it impossible for her to discern what is genuine. Haunted by fragmented memories and vivid simulations, Ella questions her identity, her past, and the nature of the world she inhabits.

As she seeks to uncover the truth, she faces an escalating conflict between her perception and the forces manipulating reality, leading her to the ultimate revelation: is freedom found in escaping the illusion, or embracing it? "Ella" explores themes of identity, reality, and the future of technology, set against the vibrant yet dystopian backdrop of a futuristic Rio.

This film was produced with AI using Runway + Midjourney + Flux + ComfyUI + Topaz.

CINEMATOGRAPHY AI

Recently, I have been studying and getting closer to AI video generation techniques. These images and videos were developed using ComfyUI, Flux, and Runway Gen3.

"I believe that AI is a tool that supports creativity. I always strive to incorporate my perspective both in the initial prompts and in the post-production of the images. The combination of generative techniques and traditional art gives me infinite possibilities, expanding the ways of creating."

ANOMALIA

Anomalia is a cryptoart collection sold as NFTs. It is one of the first cryptoart collections created by a Brazilian, with limited editions that sold out on OpenSea.

"I generated these digital illustrations by hand using an AI-generated image as a reference. This collection was created during the early stages of my training to generate images. My main aim was to practice digital painting techniques and create a variety of unique faces. However, an interruption during the process resulted in the creation of some unexpected and unusual images."

"An anomaly is the result of a poorly designed experiment, an incorrectly calibrated instrument or a variable that has not been considered." - Pedro Calabrez

XQECE

I was invited by BRIFW (Brazilian Immersive Fashion Week) to develop a fashion show that would be presented at the event. I used AI to help me design the clothing pieces and the overall concept of the project.

"The project is named XQECE and showcases the future of fashion in a futuristic Rio de Janeiro with contemporary characteristics. The most challenging part was translating the concepts generated by AI into clothing using the software Marvelous Designer."

EXPERIMENTATIONS

Here, I use AI as a reference for illustration studies.
It's not a study of similarity, but rather of drawing techniques, and just for fun ;)
