Hand Of God is a holy story. The idea started with the song—Hand Of God, by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, and Warren Ellis. Moved by the song, our team decided to try something new. We've played with A.I. before, but it never as more than experiments. After some planning, a day of filming, and sleepless nights of stylizing, we made our first A.I. project in 7 days.
We used A.I. to stylize and manipulate the face, as well as other tools to interpolate painted frames. The filming took place in Mission Trails, San Diego on a well-timed stormy day. This whirlwind project introduced us to the technology that led to our process.
