Frankenstein 2078 Ai Generated Trailer
Frankenstein Cyberpunk: Creating the Monster with AI ️
Hey! Today I want to tell you how I brought a cyberpunk Frankenstein trailer to life using mainly artificial intelligence (AI) tools. After you watch it you can read all the process to create this insane sci-fi trailer.
In a dystopian future where technology reigns supreme and humanity’s boundaries are stretched beyond recognition, Frankenstein 2078 brings a cyberpunk twist to the classic tale of Frankenstein.
In a futuristic London, Dr. Victor Frankenstein, a scientist obsessed with immortality, creates a synthetic being using AI and cybernetics. As factions clash in a dystopian city, a cyborg seeks revenge. The lines blur between creator and creation, exploring themes of identity and morality in a high-stakes showdown.
Here’s the workflow:
The Idea:
I’m a fan of the Frankenstein story and always wanted to imagine it in a cyberpunk universe. With this idea in mind, I used OpenAI ChatGPT to help me create a script for a trailer without voice overs, just with a few lines of dialogue.
Script and Images:
After having the initial script, I gave the story a boost to make the storytelling cooler and more engaging. Then, I used ChatGPT again to give me ideas for images for the trailer. I adjusted the suggestions to make everything more cohesive and creative.
Creating the imagery:
To generate the images in Midjourney , I needed to create detailed descriptions of each scene. Once again, ChatGPT gave me a hand, but I had to get my hands dirty to define camera angles, language and visual inspirations, all so that the images would match each other and to create a impactful storytelling.
Bringing Images to Life:
Runway Gen 2 was the tool I used to bring the images to life. It wasn’t exactly easy, but I managed to make the movements more fluid and realistic. I made several adjustments and changed some images that didn’t look good, always thinking about the impact of the narrative.
Voice and Emotion:
The hardest part was creating the dialogues. Elevenlabs is my go-to tool. Giving emotion to the characters’ voices is a challenge and the result is not always perfect.
Editing and Post:
In Adobe Premiere, I put all the pieces together, adjusted the pace, added music and sound effects from Envato Elements and finalized with some post-production details, such as camera movements, lighting effects and credits.
Thoughts:
AI tools are still in their infancy in terms of movement options, (waiting for SORA) but even so the final result of the trailer made me happy. I was able to achieve the impact I wanted and was satisfied with the final work.
AI Experience:
I have been working with artificial intelligence tools for over a year, always testing new possibilities and seeking to bring projects like this to life. This trailer is an example of the potential of AI for visual content creation.
