Mayflower1a.mp4 -
This project explores the intersection of history and generative AI. By utilizing advanced video synthesis, I’ve attempted to visualize the turbulent journey of the Mayflower in a way that static history books cannot capture. 🚀 Technical Breakdown Generated using Runway Gen-2 via the AI Video API .
The goal was to move away from "clean" CGI. I wanted the grit, the spray of the salt water, and the looming uncertainty of the open sea. The slight AI artifacts actually lend a dreamlike, memory-focused quality to the footage, bridging the gap between historical record and modern imagination. 📍 Realistic mast sway and rigging tension. Dynamic lighting transitions through coastal mist. Authentic wood textures rendered via diffusion models. mayflower1a.mp4
This version ( 1a ) focuses on lighting consistency and the "painterly" aesthetic of the Atlantic horizon. 🎨 Artistic Vision This project explores the intersection of history and
