BREAK ME OPEN
"Break Me Open is a song about being broken open by love, about people’s pain and inner monsters being unveiled and intertwined in raw and unbridled passion. This is the metaphor we’re exploring in this video." -- Sam i
While parts of the video were shot practically the entire thing was mapped over by AI to create the final product. The artistry and process of creating a photo-realistic entirely AI video full with VFX and data set mapping has never been done before and we are excited to be able to share it with everyone."
"We shot the entire video looking like a shitty 80’s B horror movie. Then we created several models of each of the characters, creatures, and backgrounds which we mapped onto picture using an already obsolete software. These technologies move so fast! The biggest challenge was creating a consistency." -- Sam i
