AI Music Videos
We created a series of AI music videos for the debut tracks by our longtime sound designer Simon Pyke (AKA Freefarm) and singer James Buttery (formerly of Darkstar).
Our atmospheric, typographic videos visualise the lyrics and respond to the theme, textures and sound of each track.
To generate the visual, we developed a custom system that combines traditional animation techniques with modern, generative AI. We challenged ourselves to create novel, generative images with a sense of surprise that also maintained a certain degree of legibility as typography.
