After almost a year of DAZStudio abstinence (with one or twenty-two exceptions ), I guess the rendering bug has bitten me again.

Somehow, I always found myself drawn back to the PC and DAZStudio.



The trigger was this track in the video, which I made with Suno, and it immediately sparked some ideas. At first, I just wanted to create simple still images, but that felt kind of lame. I didn't dare try animation because I'm just not good at it. Then I tried using AI, but quickly realized that it didn't produce the desired result either. For one thing, you practically have to write half a novel to get the AI ​​to do what you want, and for another, my characters' faces change so drastically that you can't even recognize them. So, I had to go back to DAZStudio. But I'm not an animator; I lack the understanding of proper timing for movements and such. Therefore, many of the short sequences look rather 'blocky' and 'jerky'. But whatever, I still think it looks better than still images.

Workflow: DAZStudio4.24 -> Iray -> Affinity Photo 2 -> DaVinci Resolve Studio20 / Suno
