“Sora is at its most powerful when the interactive process feels almost like working alongside another human. The creations are incredible because of its ability to fill in details and craft uncanny visuals that blur the line between reality and illusion. It makes you question: What is real?!
What excites me the most is the ‘human-ness’ of the characters, particularly their facial expressions and the emotions they convey. There is immense potential for these visuals to forge strong emotional connections, making it an incredibly powerful communication tool. I also learn from the way Sora interprets prompts—the more I engage with it, the more I learn. I love that I am constantly learning while creating!
In this film Auntie bought some eggs from a mysterious vendor at the market, driven by food cravings intensified by the full moon’s energy. To her surprise, mini aunties hatched from the eggs, throwing big Auntie’s life into delightful chaos. Suddenly, with a squad of tiny assistants by her side, every aspect of Auntie’s life was meticulously taken care of. But one day, just as mysteriously as they had arrived, the mini aunties departed, and the egg stall vanished from the market. ”
