  Book Cover: Bumble Learns To Fly

Inspiration

After years of poorly illustrating our children's books and with all the new AI tools we wanted to breathe new life into our old stories. Not just create new artwork for the books, but to bring them to life utilizing all the great new tools at our disposal.

How we built it

Using Leonardo AI to come up with a "look" and create all our characters and sets. Once I created all that I could start animating.

Challenges we ran into

Lipsync is still a huge issue, especially with non human characters. Because our characters are Bee's, they have wings. I had to find and use the best AI video model that would help make natural wing movements. Using VEO 3 helped solve some of these issues.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

The fact that just two people, working together, could put together something for everyone to enjoy for years to come. We don't have a huge budget or a large team. AI helps us get what we need to accomplish our goals.

What we learned

I learned that I can't just use one AI model. Learning different models and knowing their strengths and weaknesses helps speed up the process by getting accurate renders.

Being flexible on the story line and staying fluid. Sometimes a shot doesn't work out the way you want it to.

What's next for Bumble Learns To Fly

Sharing it with the world. Now that I have all the sets and characters built, I can continue the story in the future.
