Today we’re sharing an early video keyframing prototype that treats creative exploration like a search process of all latent artistic possibilities. One which allows you to simultaneously navigate this vast space with both precise control as well as serendipitous nonlinear discovery.

(1/8)Image Graph Structure: A Window in Latent Space

The Graph structure is the foundation of the prototype. Images are represented as nodes, serving as waypoints in the model's latent space. These nodes can be connected to other nodes to create an edge; a video that transitions from the first frame to the last frame across latent space and time.

Gen-3 Alpha can simulate liquids such as water, paint, oil, honey and molten glass. All with realistic viscosity, physics-based interactivity and caustics.

(1/7) Prompt: A dynamic motion shot of ethereal underwater caustics dancing across a sandy seabed. Shimmering patterns of light ripple and flow, creating intricate lace-like projections on the ocean floor. The camera slowly pans, following the mesmerizing play of refracted sunlight as it filters through unseen waves above. Tiny particles suspended in the water catch the light, adding depth and dimension to the scene. The caustics shift and morph, their intensity waxing and waning as if affected by gentle currents.
