The Crow de Glenn Marshall (GB)

In this animation, artificial intelligence is used to transform a dancer into a crow.

Based on a live action short film, AI is used to transform each video frame into a painting using text to image synthesis. A derelict building becomes a desolate landscape, and a dancer becomes a human crow figure.

The result is a haunting and compelling piece that follows the crow through its brief dance in a landscape of post-apocalyptic barrenness, to its inevitable demise.
