R<\/span><\/b>ecently, I’ve been exploring how to create a 2D animation workflow that allows me to animate with my own art and characters, while incorporating generative AI into the process to do the ‘heavy lifting’ (basically all the traditionally time consuming stuff like the animation itself).<\/p>\n

If you’ve seen my previous post,\u00a0Reallusion’s Cartoon Animator Versus PixVerse Image to Video and Lip Sync AI – Battle of the Talking Head Avatars<\/a>, you may have noticed I used green screen (a.k.a. Chroma keying) with my AI output.<\/p>\n

This was something I did because, if you want to animate a particularly long scene, especially with lip sync, you need to string a number of generations together. This is easier to do with characters if they don’t have any background in the generation – which may not stay as consistent as the character across generations.<\/p>\n

To cut a long story short, YouTube, today, randomly served up a video, Digital Diary : Reviving Animation with AI, Transforming 3D into 2D Cartoon Art<\/a>, to me by animation channel Latent Space<\/a>, who is primarily a 3D animator and digital artist but recently started experimenting with 2D AI animation.<\/p>\n

That particular video was more about using AI to turn 3D characters into a specific 2D art style and is well worth watching for context but it was Part 2, embeded below, that really caught my attention.<\/p>\n

Not only will you see a really professionally created cartoon, right at the start, you’ll also see the AI incorporated workflow that I was leaning towards, but Latent Space has actually put into practice, as a proof of concept. Watch the video then read my notes below.<\/p>\n
