OBSESSION

OBSESSION — Project Story

Inspiration

“Obsession” began as a challenge: make the most unhinged pink relationship music video ever.
I explored themes of heartbreak, delusion, denial, unhealthy attachment, and the comedic chaos of “losing your mind” over love.
Aesthetic influences include Y2K pink pop culture, K-pop teasers, chaotic fancam energy, and surreal AI-driven storytelling.

What it does

A short AI-powered music video following a girl spiraling into emotional intensity after a breakup.
It expresses:

• heartbreak
  
• denial
  
• obsession
  
• revenge fantasy
  
• fame illusions
  
• emotional confusion
  

The character creates a city-wide spectacle chasing her ex — whether he actually cheated or she imagined it.

How we built it

Built entirely on OpenArt.

Image Generation:

• Gemini
  
• Seedream
  

Video Generation:

• Kling
  
• Hailuo
  

Editing:

• CapCut (sequencing, timing, transitions, color matching)

Workflow: Figma MoodBoard → Storyline → generate images → animate scenes → OpenART LipSync → refine → assemble → sync with audio.

Challenges we ran into

• face consistency
  
• reversed or unnatural AI movement
  
• matching lighting and color between models
  
• short deadline
  
• balancing emotional tone (funny, chaotic, relatable)
  
• maintaining a cohesive pink aesthetic
  

Accomplishments that we're proud of

• created a full music video in one night
  
• maintained a consistent character identity
  
• developed a strong pink cinematic style
  
• integrated multiple AI video tools
  
• built a narrative completely from scratch
  
• defined a unique aesthetic: pink unhinged relationship energy

What we learned

• how to direct AI with highly detailed prompts
  
• how to fix reversed or awkward motion in editing
  
• how to unify lighting and colors across scenes
  
• how emotional storytelling can thrive in AI workflows
  
• the value of iteration (many versions per scene)

What's next for OBSESSION

• extend into a longer short-film style MV
  
• build deeper character lore
  
• sequels: “Closure (Maybe)”
  
• create a tutorial explaining the full OpenArt workflow
• experiment with lip-sync and AI voice more
• explore darker or funnier continuation arcs
