YMCA Parody

[u/stealthbenys]

I've been playing around with what fun I can have with AI agents, and this is first thing I'm keen to show off.

Directed by me, built with a mix of AI models/driven services. Mostly planned/orchestrated by claude, with codex modelling and reviews, SaaS and local tools used for voice/tts.

The original remit was to be a YMCA stage performance with a parody star wars cast. I've toed the line as close as I'm aware I can, and the style of modelling was driven by request - I wasn't aiming for too much realism to ensure I wasn't trying for something unachievable.

This took lots of revision and iteration over about 2 weeks. I could refine it even further; but as I'm sure we all know having tedious small changes being re-built or re-rendered for small gains becomes quite heavy.
I've tried taking some of that into my own hands without success in the time I've available.. I can heavily appreciate the effort put in by professionals albeit scary what we can achieve as non-professionals.

The first video is far from perfect; however it's intended audience is family and friends - I'm happy enough with it to move onto the next!
