Curse of the Pharaoh: A short AI video
A question for those who plan to watch :
Can you guess who my collaborator is just by listening to the music?
Credits at the end for those who play along.
Thanks for watching.

I should have guessed.. but I didn’t. Very good work. The track (or vice versa) works perfectly.
Awesome!
It would be cool if you could add a kill, or some kind of attack (swing sword?) when these undead skeleton pharaoh characters finally catch up to whoever it is that they’re chasing. Right now, they’re catching up and then they stop and look at each other like “what’s up?”
With that said, I love where this technology is going, but at the same time, I also love the AI videos you were making say.. a year ago. (With all the morphing shapes and scenes).
I guessed it! But it wasn’t easy. At first i thought it was Svetlofska until i heard the guitars. Nice work. Too scary and disturbing your AI videos. The music yeah up after the dissonant slidey stuff
Very good.
Great work on the video and , yes, I guessed @Paulieworld (the soundtrack worked very well too!)
@LinearLineman , @Edward_Alexander , @Blipsford_Baubie , @id_23 , @AlterEgo_UK Thank you all!
I had a very clear idea of what I wanted to make with this video after hearing Paul's track. There's still a high degree of randomness involved in image and video generation but the tools are finally reaching a place where you can nudge the outputs closer to the narrative you want. Vidu is one of the younger services but they are very attentive to feedback and active on their Discord server. I expect things will only get better with time. For now I'm trying to push the tools as hard as I can to see what works.
I did want to have a bit more sword fighting / battle scenes than the short clip right before our thief rides away on his camel as Edward suggests, but unfortunately that isn't an action that seems to work well yet. Strange, considering that seems like an action there would be ample footage of for training AI.
I suppose with Lionsgate signing a deal with Runway and James Cameron joining Stability AI film and video generation will be seeing much more attention in the near future.
Thanks again for watching.
That is really interesting news about James Cameron joining Stability AI. Thanks, hadn’t seen that yet.
On their board of directors.

From the article
Stability AI believes that Cameron’s addition to its board is a “significant step forward” in the company’s “mission to transform visual media.” The company further added: “Cameron’s artist-centric perspective, paired with his business and technical acumen, will support Stability AI in continuing to unlock new opportunities to empower creators to tell stories in ways once unimaginable.”
Cameron joins other newly-appointed board members, including Dana Settle, co-founder and managing partner of Greycroft; Colin Bryant, COO and general partner of Coatue Management; and Sean Parker, former president of Facebook, who serves as executive chairman.
The financial terms of Cameron’s deal with Stability AI have not been revealed. Typically, board members are compensated with retainer fees and stock options, in addition to other perks.
Prem Akkaraju, the CEO of Stability AI, is the previous CEO of Weta Digital, the lead visual effects studio for Cameron’s Avatar franchise. Akkaraju said in a statement:
James Cameron lives in the future and waits for the rest of us to catch up; Stability AI’s mission is to transform visual media for the next century by giving creators a full stack AI pipeline to bring their ideas to life. We have an unmatched advantage to achieve this goal with a technological and creative visionary like James at the highest levels of our company. This is not only a monumental statement for Stability AI, but the AI industry overall. The next frontier in visual media will be forged by a true fusion of artist and technology, and Stability AI is leading the charge.
Cameron, who also runs the production company Lightstorm, added:
I’ve spent my career seeking out emerging technologies that push the very boundaries of what’s possible, all in the service of telling incredible stories. I was at the forefront of cgi over three decades ago, and I’ve stayed on the cutting edge since. Now, the intersection of generative AI and cgi image creation is the next wave. The convergence of these two totally different engines of creation will unlock new ways for artists to tell stories in ways we could have never imagined. Stability AI is poised to lead this transformation. I’m delighted to collaborate with Sean [Parker], Prem [Akkaraju], and the Stability AI team as they shape the future of all visual media.
He’s on the right track AND he’ll be able to make billion dollar (looking) productions on a budget with the help of AI.
It must be the mad Arab Abdul Alhazred, torn apart at noon in the marketplace by unseen beings. According to HPL, anyway…
I definitely need to brush up on my Lovecraft. There are some models on Civitai.com that would make for an interesting video but I would need to do a little research to make it right. It's been forever since I read The Call of Cthulhu and At the Mountains of Madness. Thanks for watching and putting more ideas in my head😀
Nice work, @MadeofWax and @Paulieworld. The stuff you are doing is really neat. I am enjoying these collaborations
Thank you @myapologies
These collaborations are really enjoyable for me as well. Working with Paul and the other folks I've worked with has been a great experience. Getting to work with excellent music and getting to know the people behind it a little bit better has been such a good time. I'm glad you are enjoying it too 😀
@MadeofWax : “Of [Al Hazred’s] final death or disappearance (738 C.E.) many terrible and conflicting things are told. He is said by Ibn Khallikan (13th century biographer) to have been seized by an invisible monster in broad daylight and devoured horribly before a large number of fright-frozen witnesses. Of his madness many things are told. He claimed to have seen fabulous Irem, or City of Pillars, and to have found beneath the ruins of a certain nameless desert town the shocking annals and secrets of a race older than mankind. He was only an indifferent Moslem, worshipping unknown entities whom he called Yog-Sothoth and Cthulhu.” - H.P. Lovecraft, History of the Necronomicon.
This turned out great! I like your concept much better.
Love the irony of a track called Frostbite having a video set in the desert… another great collab !
Paul and I thought about that too😁. Typically when I listen to creations if a track doesn't have a video I'll close my eyes and imagine something that could go with it. Sometimes the title will influence my thoughts, sometimes not.
This track immediately took me to old Egypt. Right or wrong, it's what came to mind. Thank you for watching and listening and for the comments!
