Remember Odds Against Tomorrow? It appears Harry Belafonte and Robert Ryan didn't perish after all in the explosive end of the movie but return to Hudson, unchanged by time, to encounter something new and disturbing in this short video created by Mark Allen and Tate Cozzo (a.k.a. The Rivertown Collective).
You can watch it here.
Tate Cozza deserves most of the credit here. He’s the one who created the AI, fed the actors voices and images from the film into the program, finagled with it all.
ReplyDeleteThe original idea was a longer and more expansive video where Harry Belafonte and Robert Ryan return to a modern-day Hudson in 2026 and all kinds of wacky things happen. We had a sort of loose script. But the constraints of AI would have turned that into a massive project that would have used several thousand metric tons of cooling water LOL! AI animation is a strangely fun and unsettling medium.
Thanks for highlighting Carole!
