So ofc it's just a small part of the future of storytelling.. but you know how the algorithm likes when posts make you go: "That's not right!" ;-)
To elaborate on my claim:
I think we'll see more and more workflows and tools that focus on allowing us to quickly and intuitively build out 3d scenes that we then tell our stories in. We'll tell these stories using traditional film-techniques enhanced with AI. Workflows that let's you take existing footage and change camera angles, settings, lighting.
Using generative AI in combination with painting, sculpting, voice directing, acting out scenes, we'll be able to build upon material we already have, or create entirely new content.
Our 3d tools will focus less on the technical side of building scenes, and more on the painterly sensation, the flow-state of creating freely. Shaders, effects, simulation, all of that will be mainly done behind the scenes by AI. You'll uses your creative skills to build, while the AI applies consistent texture, style, lighting etc, all based on your creative input.
Need a car to drive into the scene in a certain way? Pick up your coffee cup from the table, hold it in front of the camera and tell the AI assistant that this is now the car. Move the cup in the way you imagine the car moving into the scene, and see the car move. Need a small dust cloud to form as the car turns? Paint directly on top of the scene and see that turn into a realistic dust cloud from the wheels of the car. Need to have a new building in the background? Upload that picture you took of an interesting building the other day and see that merged into the scene.
Most of us will be able to tell stories through moving pictures and images through text/voice prompts alone. But those of us with strong artistic skills and creative minds, will be able to take the material to the next level. Combined with the tools and workflows we allready use, we can imbue the stories with just as much originality and soul as we've always done when presented with new ways to work.

1) People can collect whatever they like. There’s no rules.
2) Experimenting is how we grow. Disclosing medium is standard.
3) The hate for AI makes it hard for new collaborators to disclose. I struggled with this at first.
4) If you use AI you’re a pioneer—be proud of it.

Personal Thoughts:
(not for everyone, feel free to skip)
For the longest time, I struggled with my identity.
A Palestinian kid born inside Israel. Like…wtf.
Many of my friends refuse to this day to say the word “Israel” and call themselves “Palestinian” only.
But since I was 12, that did not make sense to me.
So I decided to mix the two and become a “Palestinian-Israeli”
I thought this term reflected who I was.
Palestinian first. Israeli second.
But after recent events, I started to think.
And think.
And think.
And then my thoughts turned to anger.
I realized that if Israel were to be “invaded” like that again, we would not be safe. To a terrorist invading Israel, all citizens are targets.
900 Israelis died so far. More than 40 of them are Arabs. Killed by other Arabs. And even 2 Thai people died too.
And I do not want to live under a Palestinian government.
Which means I only have one home, even if I’m not Jewish:
Israel.
That’s where all my family lives. That’s where I grew up. That’s the country I want to see continue to exist so I can exist.
Palestine should exist too as an independent state. And I hope to see the country thrive and become less extreme and more prosperous. I love Palestine and have invested in Palestine.
But it’s not my home.
So from today forward,
I view myself as an “Israeli-Palestinian”.
Israeli first.
Palestinian second.
Sometimes it takes a shock like this to see so clearly.

Don’t tell artists how their art should be made.
Don’t tell artists how their art should be shared.
Don’t tell artists what their art should mean.
No commissions. Mind your business.

I've just realised why some people are hating on #opepen.
This past week has changed the narrative on nft's. @jackbutcher has shown you don't need to own an nft or even an expensive one to become a part of something cool.
This removes some boundaries.

I own around 70+ ReMemes & you hit the nail on the head with the Patron description.
Early on I made a joke I that wanted to buy every maxi a
burger or drink by 2030.
Buying ReMemes became my
way of expressing gratitude while supporting the community I cherish most.

I have no idea when, where, or how this bear market is going to end.
Nobody knows wtf is gonna happen (and anyone that pretends to, is not someone worth listening to).
All we can do is make educated guesses and use the power of probabilistic thinking to position ourselves as best we can for a variety of different outcomes.
What does this mean for <<insert NFT project here>>?
No idea. Most projects are going to zero. Some will survive, and some will thrive. We’ll probably see a whole host of new NFT projects pop up and many of those will also go to zero, but some will survive, and some will thrive.
So goes the cycle, so goes life.
On the balance, I think there are still tremendous opportunities to make tremendous wealth in the crypto + NFT space.
There is also TREMENDOUS risk, and tremendous capacity for people to lose everything and more.
The smartest thing you can do, in my humble opinion, is to take a balanced approach.
Have a strategy and stick to it.
Whatever your strategy is, make sure you account for black swan events / doomsday scenarios.
This generally means having a reasonable stockpile of cash / stable coins. What a ‘reasonable’ stockpile is will depend on your life situation and risk tolerance.
A 22 year old with a secure job, living at home, with zero dependents can be infinitely more risky than someone in their 40s who is “full time crypto” with a mortgage and family to support.

In 2018 I left.
In 2021 I returned and had massive regret at leaving.
In 2022, I will not leave.
I will be here in 2023, and in 2024, and in 2025.
What you decide to do is up to you, but I would highly encourage that you at least keep one eye on this wild and wacky world that is web3 so that you don’t come back in a few years and wish you never left.
