    The fact the sole use of ai makes Cinemaphilemblr go into a schizo cope frenzy gives me high hopes for more ai produced content

      OP here, I didn't think to check the archive for a thread like this. I just saw something cool and thought I'd share it. I didn't know about the AI controversy, I just thought the animation was passionate and soulful. It's rare to see an fan animation of a established franchise that doesn't have some gorey, nihilistic, or edgy jokes, I was just genuinely surprised it was played straight as if it was an authentic Scooby Doo episode I'd watch on boomerang as a child. Plus I'm somewhat excited to see someone else using the stop motion style blender animation techniques that Worthikids did in Captain Yojima.

      So the guy used AI voices, huh? What would be the problem if this individual had the talent to replicate those voices on his own without the need for AI?

      Why can't Cinemaphile grasp AI art and AI voices are different issues? I agree that AI art is slop, it looks like utter shit and generally should never be used beyond a 1 hour jerk off session. AI art is garbage and does not (and should not) replace the process of art or learning to draw.

      AI voices are another matter. If you want a good cartoon character impression you probably won't be able to do it yourself just by practice alone, and the only other option is paying someone. And I just can't bring myself to agree that expressing yourself artistically should be paywalled (art prooompters have no excuses, there's free art programs and there's no way they don't already have a pen, pencil and paper lying around).

      Like, look at this kid's video. It's fricking stopmotion. He's done the animation frame by frame himself, he's not just some lazy pajeet who doesn't want to put any work in and doesn't give a shit about art. I don't understand anons seeing him as this lazy, art-hating monster for not paying someone else in order to complete his passion project.

      What's sad is this situation could've been wholesome. Grey could have just offered to voice Daphne in the short, everyone would have been happy.

      the good part about the AI controversy with this video and Grey DeLisle acting like a sperg is that legitimately good people in the internet VA community reached out with resources like forums where there'd be people willing to do a fun fan project like this for free or super cheap and he's gotten some people to help redub the videoand remove the AI voices

      but on the topic of the short itself, it's really cool, the whole Rankin-Bass inspired animation is neat and it legitmiately feels like something that could have come out in the 70s with the original show.

    Well apparently it works if you delete everything about the Zoomer horror except for a villain's name and maybe a location. Change him to a tiger and you'd call the rest of this FNAF easter eggs, not really a rip off.

    I mean, its genuinely good, unique artstyle that meshes perfectly with the time frame of the original Scooby Doo show that makes it feel like a special that could've happened back then, but lets face it, it's only good because the only FNAF part is a name.

      Because it’s a Scooby Doo parody that happens to be in a FNAF setting.

      You could easily do the reverse, tonally and structure wise make it FNAF with the security guard role just so happening to be the Scooby gang.

      Also, I feel like the OP short would have felt better if it was 20 minutes. Give time for a few more clues pointing to Afton, a red herring or two pointing tk the guard and Henry, more time to explore the location(despite being labeled Freddy’s it’s clearly only got the two Fredbears robots), more FNAF references.

    Why can't Cinemaphile grasp AI art and AI voices are different issues? I agree that AI art is slop, it looks like utter shit and generally should never be used beyond a 1 hour jerk off session. AI art is garbage and does not (and should not) replace the process of art or learning to draw.

    AI voices are another matter. If you want a good cartoon character impression you probably won't be able to do it yourself just by practice alone, and the only other option is paying someone. And I just can't bring myself to agree that expressing yourself artistically should be paywalled (art prooompters have no excuses, there's free art programs and there's no way they don't already have a pen, pencil and paper lying around).

This obviously took a shitload more work than it had any right to just to make everyone look like they walked off Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer, but it's CGI.

        So since you can mimic stop motion in blnder, does that mean we can get more films like Coraline? It always impressive when people go the extra mile to emulate a style and try to capture both the writing and time of an animation style. I wish people were more focused on that over the voice shit but grey had to make it a big mess.

          >So since you can mimic stop motion in blnder, does that mean we can get more films like Coraline?
          Yes. In fact, this was a problem with Corpse Bride, they used CGI to help out filling inframes but it stopped looking like Stop Motion and just looked like regular old CGI. Emulation of Clay puppets, specifically, is one of the easier ones due to their plasticy look. Obviously the hard part, and what was probably the biggest hurdle for this short, is art style. Sure, you can try to copy Coraline, but unless you really watched it, something's going to feel off or missing. Like in the Scooby short, you notice that occasionally their mouths do odd side shifts? Probably not, because it was a thing Cornelius did in Rudolf or Santa did in his two shorts(Not Ruduolph)

          The tech to make a Coraline style film is there,has been for decades, with Blender even, but unless you actually have a passion for making it have a look and feel of something unique, it's just going to end up looking like regular low budget CGI.

        So since you can mimic stop motion in blnder, does that mean we can get more films like Coraline? It always impressive when people go the extra mile to emulate a style and try to capture both the writing and time of an animation style. I wish people were more focused on that over the voice shit but grey had to make it a big mess.

        This. Can't wait until the dude finishes the updated version with actual VAs so people can shut up about the AI voices already, because this is impressive stuff otherwise.

      It would be hypocritical of me or any other artist/animator to be against only AI art. AI voice is still taking the work of a VA, proomters would say the same excuse you did for AI voice about not being able to do it themselves so no harm done. Morals aside, using AI voices trained without actors or their estates consent is violating right of publicity laws. That is pretty clear cut, even if copyright violations for AI art is still being decided in the courts.

        Which is weird when you realize that neither of these properties have gore or sex. FNAF's goriest moment is that you can kind of see a rotted skeleton if you squint realllllly hard at a gap in a suit in one of the later entries, and Cawthon being devout means there's not even a mention of sex. Obviously, same goes for Scooby Doo before this decade.

        It's fricking bizarre how trained we are to expect that "Parody" just means this shit and now it's seeped into the actual fricking franchise.

          Burntrap was extremely visible and there wouldn't really be a reason to bring up sex in fnaf. Technically the other gorey moment is the audio when you move through where the technicians are hung since it implies they might have been scooped. Honestly, fnaf use of 8 bit for the gore and some kills is pretty cool.

      Since he said the voice clips were sourced from the original, the only living voices that got emulated is Frank Welker, who hasn't chimed in on this. And Nicole Jaffe, who also hasn't said anything on it The model for Daphne's two lines would've been Heather North, who voiced Daphne from 1970 to 1997, and who also came back in 2003. That's 30 years of voice clips to work with across a half dozen shows, and they would've been consistent. She didn't voice her opinion because she ded

        According to the credits, it's an AI of Grey DeLisle, who I'm pretty sure has been very vocal about her disapproval of this.
        The problem with AI is that everyone seems to have a very strong opinion about it, they either love it or hate it, except when it comes to meme song covers or stuff like presidents playing Minecraft or Joe Rogan discussing Bionicle.
        It seems like most people are either fine with or don't care about AI when it's used for jokey shitposts like that, but when it's used for more "legitimate" stuff like shows, movies, and a very impressive Scooby/FNAF crossover short, people get upset.
        I think the haters need to understand this isn't some big corporation trying to replace VAs, this is just some kid who didn't think enough about the reaction using AI voices would get.
        I really wish he had the foresight to know doing something like this would've come with backlash, I don't think he did anything wrong, but this could've definitely been avoided by making some questions to the VA community, I'm sure he could've gotten a bunch of volunteers.

        AI voices are essentially automatic voice splicing. The idea you should use rudimentary technology just because advancement is bad is baffling.
        >Stop using Photoshop. All those brushes that automatically let you paint curves, shapes and patterns that before you had to manually draw are soulless. Retvrn to ms pvint.
        That's not to say manual voice splicing is bad, it's still very impressive even now, just like someone creating a beautiful painting in MS Paint is impressive. But all AI voices do is take out hours of meticulous, tedious work, it makes life easier for people who actually want to sit down and create stuff. It feels like people getting mad about the "barrier to entry being lowered" are annoyed about a secret club getting infiltrated that they're not even a part of in the first place, because if you did work with this stuff, you'd be able to appreciate the tool or at least understand why it exists even if you didn't want to use it yourself.

      There is no proof the animation or writing isn't AI generated too, which both most likely are considering the creator is an AIgay

      in case you hadn't noticed, Cinemaphile is being raided by AIgays right now. So yes, it's mostly trolling. Mostly. Cinemaphile also isn't particularly known for having deep insight on shit, either.

      Unless I missed it I haven’t seen anyone shitting on the animation. It’s the use of AI voices that’s the big issue.

        There's a couple people in the thread accusing the animation of being AI generated under the assumption that the creator using AI voices means the script and animation was AI generated as well. There's pretty much no proof of it but eh.

      All he had to do was pay a voice actor. They literally work for peanuts, especially if they're building up their portfolio. Am I supposed to feel sorry for this autistic moron for involving cancerous technology and surprise pikachuing when it goes bad?

        You realize that this guy is probably an art student and probably can't even afford the peanuts.

    Very cool he could reproduce the style and influences someone else already realized, but with IP slop now and AI voices so everyone can culture war about it.

    Get back to me when they make something with actual originality in it.

          >I checked out when he said "work". Why should I have to work for the life that I "deserve"? That makes no sense. I hate speeches like this too because it makes people believe that everyone in the world is destined for good life if they just work hard enough for it. That's just not how life is

        >The irony of people using porn as a digital coping mechanism only for those same people to seek help from a fabricated AI voice of a person who never said or meant anything that it was scripted to say. We truly are in a world beyond anything real anymore, especially love.

    It's really cool, has the same charm of a Scooby-Doo episode while looking like something straight out of a Rankin/Bass production.
