🎨 Introduction to AI Morphed Animation with Artbreeder

This paragraph introduces the viewer to the process of creating an AI morphed animation using the website artbreeder.com. It instructs the user to create a free account and provides a brief preview of the website. The paragraph highlights that all images are generated using artificial neural network technology. The tutorial will use the original user interface of Artbreeder by selecting the 'old version' from the menu, although it mentions that the latest interface is equally user-friendly. The paragraph also references a previous animation created by the speaker using six images and shows the final animation after it was generated. The speaker then proceeds to guide the viewer on how to create their own animation by pressing the 'create' button or selecting 'splicer' on the newer interface.

🖼️ Creating and Customizing Your Animation

In this paragraph, the speaker elaborates on the steps to create a personalized AI morphed animation. The user is instructed to select 'portraits or video' and then 'portrait' on the newer version of the interface. An example from the breeder is shown, and the user is guided to select 'animate' and 'create a new portrait animation'. The process of adding images for the animation is detailed, explaining how to use the plus button to add the first image and then subsequent images, with the option to use as many different images as desired. The example uses five images. The paragraph further explains how to adjust the splice options, such as setting a two-second transition between each image, which can be modified for slower or faster transitions. The choice of transition type is also discussed, with the example using a linear transition for smoothness. Additionally, the speaker describes the option to set the frames per second, using 60 frames per second in the example for a smoother animation. The video's length in seconds and the total number of frames required are displayed on the screen. The paragraph concludes with instructions on how to generate the animation, which the system processes and notifies the user via email when ready. The user is then directed to the 'video downloads' section to find their animation and how to download it by pressing the three vertical dots at the bottom right corner.

Keywords

💡AI morphed animation

AI morphed animation refers to a visual effect created by using artificial intelligence to generate smooth transitions between a series of images or frames, typically portraits, to simulate the appearance of one image morphing into another. In the context of the video, this technique is utilized to create dynamic animations by blending multiple user-submitted images through an AI platform called Artbreeder.com.

💡Artbreeder.com

Artbreeder.com is an online platform that employs artificial neural network technology to facilitate the creation of unique images and animations. Users can generate new artwork by blending and morphing existing images through the site's AI tools. The video script provides a tutorial on how to use this platform to create an AI morphed animation.

💡Artificial neural network technology

Artificial neural network technology is a type of machine learning that is inspired by the human brain's neural networks. It involves the use of algorithms to recognize underlying relationships in a set of data through a process that mimics the way the brain operates. In the video, this technology is used by Artbreeder.com to create seamless transitions between images in an animation.

💡Interface

In computing, an interface refers to the point of interaction between a user and a computer system, often consisting of visual elements that allow for navigation and manipulation of the system's functions. The video script mentions the original user interface of Artbreeder's platform, indicating that the user can choose between an older and a newer version for their convenience.

💡Splice options

Splice options refer to the settings and parameters that control how images or videos are combined or transitioned from one to another. In the context of the video, splice options include the duration of each transition, the type of transition effect, and the frames per second, which collectively determine the smoothness and style of the animation.

💡Portrait animation

A portrait animation is a type of animated content where the primary subject is a portrait or a series of portraits that are manipulated to create the illusion of movement or transformation. In the video, the process of creating a portrait animation is detailed, involving the use of AI to morph between different portraits.

💡Transition type

Transition type refers to the specific method or effect used to move from one image or scene to another in a video or animation. Different transition types can create varied visual effects, influencing the pace and mood of the animation. In the video, the user can choose between different transition types, such as linear, to achieve their desired animation style.

💡Frames per second (FPS)

Frames per second (FPS) is a measurement used in video technology and animation that indicates the number of individual frames that are displayed per second in a video or animation. A higher FPS generally results in smoother motion, while a lower FPS may cause the animation to appear choppy or less fluid. In the context of the video, adjusting the FPS is one of the splice options available to the user to control the smoothness of the animation.

💡Generate button

The generate button is a user interface element that, when clicked, initiates the process of creating or producing the desired output based on the user's input and selected options. In the video, this button is used to start the creation of the AI morphed animation after the user has set up all the necessary parameters.

💡Video downloads

Video downloads refer to the process of obtaining the final video file created by the platform after the animation has been generated. This typically involves locating the video within the platform's interface and selecting an option to save the file to the user's device. In the context of the video, this is the step where the user retrieves their completed AI morphed animation.

💡Download

Download refers to the action of transferring a file or piece of data from a remote server, such as a website, to a local device, like a computer or smartphone. In the video tutorial, downloading is the final step where the user saves their created AI morphed animation to their device.
