www.youtube.com Video from : www.youtube.com


The graphics were processed (nearly all) with ofnuts 'interleave layers' script. I load a frame into Gimp from the middle of a sequence, duplicate it and then paint the bottom layer a single color. Then I set the Mode of the top layer (the frame) to Difference. From there I adjust color curves and Hue Chroma until the frame starts to look cool. Then I delete the video frame and multiply the color frame to the same number as the video stream frames.

I end-up with 2 Gimp work canvases with the same number of frames and then I interleave them with the video stream on top and set to 'Difference' :)

The audio is AI which I modified with Audacity. I own the audio because I had to buy a license to generate it.

I really enjoyed watching your video and seeing what you've accomplished with GIMP.

It's always a pleasure to see the creativity and thought that go into projects like this.
I particularly enjoyed seeing how you put GIMP's capabilities to use to achieve the final effect.

Very nicely done!
:clap

@Tas - absolutely blxxdy brilliant; one of the best things I have ever seen on GC. To use our Aussie vernacular ... ripper mate. As for the music I thought we were listening to Jimi Hendrix.

Tas_mania, excellent work. I like a lot and you have taken care about the whole the video.
Images, music but the video pace to enjoy all details, too. :clap :tyspin

Don’t be afraid to start over. It’s a new chance to rebuild what you want.

Thanks for some nice comments here, omg I'm glad you enjoyed it :) I went on an AI music learning trip :)

rod, Aussies and Americans have a lot in common.
The swamp rock thing I discovered on Utube but I think it's an invented genre. We will probable see a lot more of this kind of thing.

Wallace usually comments on my Utube videos > thanks Wallace.

Issabella I like your comment, it was slowed-down because I keyframed by degrees rather than zooming into it. I try to make a canvass of infinite size and move around inside it so if I put the 'camera' somewhere and move it up 360 degrees I should arrive back at the same view point.

Any videos with any AI content on Utube must be flagged as AI. I think this is because they don't want AI to sample AI material which will cause AI to become non-human :)

Meant to comment on this when I got home yesterday evening but forgot (saw it at work). Fantastic result, Tas. Psychedelic for sure. Now you need to share your stash of Psilocybin with us. lol

:)

Glad you commented Lyle - I was a bit harsh on you when some of the cast of Star Trek passed away :( You did good impressions of them and were probably experiencing some grief. I can be a culture warrior without a cause :)

That is lol. I used to read The Teachings of Don Juan but after seeing what happened to Castaneda's followers I think it was a literary hoax. Spoiler alert. [They died in the desert] :roll:
