Gentle Piano Song (Somewhere Deep in the Sea by Jessica Yip) + AI video with a Gumiho theme

Подробнее о видео

Shapeshifter is my second video showcasing my experiments with creating AI video in different styles (using Kaiber AI). This video is on the theme of fox spirits (called ‘Huli Jing’ in Chinese and ‘Gumiho’ in Korean).
After creating the original AI-generated videos in Kaiber, I used Premiere Pro to edit them (e.g., changing the speed, reversing some clips, smoothing out the AI animation, doing some color matching between different clips, etc. )

The gentle piano song is by Jessica Yip and is the 38th song in my free background music series. We recorded it a few years ago, and it can be used for free in your videos for non-commercial projects (as well as in monetized YouTube videos) as long as you credit the artist. (Somewhere Deep in the Sea: Music composed and performed by Jessica Yip). You can download the song and find out more information on my website:

I had been working on using those video clips to accompany a fast rock song, but I couldn’t quite make that song work in the mix, so I used an older song with a totally different mood.

For inspiration, I used different styles in the prompts such as: CLAMP (for the colorful manga-style young women), Gustav Klimt (for a couple of the portraits and for the evolving ‘woodblock’ fox masks), Junji Ito (for the fierce-looking fox at the end—there were a few more interesting clips inspired by that artist that I had been rock version, but were too terrifying for this piano version) and Paul Klee for the patchwork style near the end. I also worked with some of Kaiber’s ‘house styles’. For more information about Kaiber AI (e.g., the things it does well and its limitations, you can refer to the article I wrote about producing the first video in the series:

The next AI video will be on the theme of ‘chrysalis’.
