Foundation, Concept, and Inspiration.

The Genesis Generation.
I was exploring different concepts and ideas in Midjourney that inspire me and I randomly got a really incredible image that was a catalyst for this entire project.
At the time I thought how cool would it be to build a world using this image as a reference and style frame?
Fast forward to October everything clicked and it all made sense.
This was the beginning of Claire's World.

Image Description from Genesis.
Feeding Midjourney the zoomed out level 1 image to retrieve prompts to be used to generate variations.

Variations #1
The multiple variations of the background were the most important as I knew that I wanted to have them animated together in some way.
Many variations of this image were made, and then subsequently used to make an animated Backdrop using GEN-2 by Runway.

Upscaled variation #3
This image was special, because one of the heads were breaking the plane.
This image was eventually used to make an animated theatrical backdrop.

Background Variation #1
Photoshop "select subject" and "generative fill" used to remove the woman from the original image.

Background Variation #2

Background Variation #3
Photoshop "select subject" and "generative fill" used to remove the woman from the original image.

Background Variation #4

Background Variation #5

AI Animated Variations (combined)
GEN-2 By Runway was used to create the final animation using 4 variations of the backgrounds.

Feeding Midjourney a isolated background
Woman removed, and image cut out, I fed this into Midjourney to further iterate the idea and create prompts for me to create more world assets.

Mind-Mapping
Assets, references, and ideas were mind-mapped. This helped narrow down the idea to begin arranging the 3D world.
