We’re continuing to slowly expand Sora testing to more creatives (digital VFX pioneers, architects, choreographers, engineering artists, and creative entrepreneurs) to help us understand the model’s capabilities and limitations, shaping the next phase of research to create increasingly safe AI systems over time. While access is still extremely limited while safety testing is underway, we wanted to celebrate these artists’ work with their reflections on how they use Sora in their process. (The underlying visuals were generated solely with Sora without any VFX, but artists added sound and edited using traditional filmmaking software.)
Danielle Baskin (@djbaskin) is a product designer, situation designer, visual artist, and founder of @entermoonlight a virtual platform for Tarot. In this project, she used Sora to generate video interpretations of a classic major arcana Tarot deck that you can try on their website. “Working with Sora feels a lot like making things inside a dream,” she shared. “The results are otherworldly, unexpected, and they often bend the rules of physics, but that’s the beauty! Each video becomes a poetic, evocative part of a grander story, but doesn’t quite exist. It’s a glimpse into what-if.”
“I’m excited about Sora, not simply as a visual prototyping tool, but as a creative instigator. For me, it feels more like visiting a surrealist museum than pulling out a sketchbook.”
