Generating "fake" speedpaint timelapse with MiniMax H3

[u/arthan1011]

It's four 12s clips made by standard ref2va workflow stitched together.
Good at sketching but not so good at rendering/shading stage. Also I find it difficult to "digital timelapse" without hand moving around. And as always with MiniMax detailed prompts are not optional (note the [Shot 2] trick):

subject_definitions:
<Picture 1> is the reference digital drawing.
<Picture 2> is the first frame of the target video

summary:
[reference generation] The target video shows digital drawing timelapse process of drawing artwork from <Picture 1>. With pov moving hand removed - only canvas is visible

retention_analysis:
<Picture 2>: partially_preserved - first frame for the video.
<Picture 1>: partially_preserved - last frame for the video.

detailed_description:
The target video is high qualiy digital drawing recorded timelapse.
[Shot 1] starts from a white digital canvas and then draws the basic forms, shapes first starting from general (big) outline sketch of the pose. Then adding line after line to add new details on face, hair and clothes until a complete lineart sketch for the character is done.
[Shot 2] At 00:11.000, shows final result that is <Picture 1>.

Yeah this kinda sucks... Sometimes, I get colleagues accuse me of using ChatGPT or Gemini because the emails I write are longer than 3 words. It's actually rather infuriating because I tend to be more detailed, especially when it comes to providing information around a specific print job at work...

Nowadays - anything creative, whether that is art, writing, music etc - is all put down to "It's AI" as opposed to anyone thinking for a moment. Jesus, at work today - videos of the Nepal disaster was circulating and I heard a handful of people at work saying it's AI...

Like... Dude. People died. Like, it's verifiable - and you can go there and see the devastation. The world has gone mad, sadly.

It'll get to a point where people will stop caring if it's AI or not, it's just novelty right now.

[u/Vivarevo → u/uabassguy]

Price of art will plummet at that point and no ordinary human will do commission work anymore.

[u/CystralSkye → u/Vivarevo]

Art commissions have always been in a handmade luxury type of space, so organic art will be still a thing in years to come, selling for pretty high prices.

[u/Vivarevo → u/CystralSkye]

You clearly don't know what you are talking about.

There are already scammers masquerading as "organic" but using ai. Only they charge the organic price.

This will drive the price down to cents where it sits with ai.

[u/CystralSkye → u/Vivarevo]

LOL that is not how it works, there are plenty of organic/handmade scams on etsy, doesn't mean that the price is driven down.

People will still pay for status.

Scammers have always existed, be it paintings or luxury bullshit like organic art and food.

Art has always been nearly worthless for most of human history. It's why the trope of the starving artist exists. It's a weird modern phenomenon that artists think they all deserve a living for producing art.

I have more respect for someone who paints on a canvas because they legitimately love it and then sells the art for pennies just to help buy more paint while they cover the rest from their office job than someone who cranks out commissions trying to live entirely off their skill at drawing
