Seedance 2.0 on OpenArt AI

​

Prompt:

Main subject: young Korean woman, early 20s, natural everyday appearance, faded charcoal-grey sleeveless crop top, loose high-waisted light-wash jeans, black canvas sneakers, black cord necklace, black wavy hair in a messy side ponytail with wispy bangs. Realistic skin texture, minimal makeup, warm and approachable personality. Maintain consistent identity, clothing, hairstyle, and appearance throughout the entire video.

Location: Authentic Korean residential neighborhood during a calm late morning. Narrow concrete alleys, low-rise homes, small terraces, potted plants, laundry lines, bicycles, utility poles, overhead wires, mature trees casting moving shadows, quiet residential atmosphere. No stores, advertisements, cafés, crowds, or commercial activity.

Visual Style: Ultra-realistic documentary realism. Genuine candid behavior. Natural body language. Unscripted slice-of-life feeling. Strong environmental authenticity. Rich real-world details and believable human motion.

Camera Style: Early-2000s consumer DV camcorder aesthetic. Friend casually recording everyday moments. Heavy handheld shake, imperfect framing, frequent autofocus hunting, lens breathing, exposure pumping when moving between sun and shade, occasional motion blur, subtle rolling shutter, mild digital compression artifacts, faded colors, soft contrast, slight sensor noise. No stabilization. No cinematic camera moves. No modern color grading.

00:00–00:02

Outside a small house entrance. She sits on a low concrete wall adjusting her ponytail with both hands raised. A light breeze moves loose strands of hair. She smiles naturally while the camera struggles to hold focus.

00:02–00:04

The camera follows her into a narrow alley lined with potted plants and concrete walls. She notices a stray cat approaching and crouches down. Framing drifts off-center as the operator tries to keep up.

00:04–00:06

She gently pets and feeds the cat. Autofocus repeatedly shifts between her face and the animal. Morning sunlight flickers through leaves overhead.

00:06–00:08

Small front yard beside her house. She hangs laundry on a clothesline while fabrics sway in the breeze. Exposure changes as clouds briefly pass overhead.

00:08–00:10

On a quiet terrace with a ceramic coffee cup. She sits comfortably watching the neighborhood, occasionally brushing hair behind her ear. Loose handheld side angle with natural camera drift.

00:10–00:12

Close side profile. Someone off-camera greets her. She turns, raises her hand, smiles warmly, and casually says, “Annyeong.” The camera catches the moment slightly late.

00:12–00:15

Walking slowly down a tree-lined residential lane holding her coffee cup. She notices the camera, gives a small genuine smile, then looks away and continues walking. Recording cuts abruptly to black mid-motion as if the camcorder was switched off.

Audio: Natural ambient sound only — morning birds, distant motorcycles, light wind, leaves rustling, faint neighborhood chatter, cat sounds, footsteps on concrete, fabric moving on clotheslines, subtle residential ambience. No music. No sound design. No narration.

Goal: Authentic Korean neighborhood life captured like a forgotten home video from the early 2000s — candid, imperfect, realistic, warm, and deeply believable.

Google is investing $75 million in A24, tied to their AI deal and not a capital raise.

Google DeepMind announced a research partnership with a focus on building new creative tools shaped by the artists who'll use them.

The timing isn't a coincidence: Demis Hassabis takes the stage at Cannes Lions this Wednesday (24 June) for a fireside chat on "The Future of Creativity," covering DeepMind's collaborations across film, games & music.

DeepMind is now reportedly struggling to compete with Anthropic and OpenAI while 3.5 Pro is not the step change they'd need to be competitive

Post by a notable but not infallible AI Twitter poster, take with a grain of salt (but we'll know later this month): https://x.com/synthwavedd/status/2068000857757741251

I get the feeling that 3.5 Pro will be very fun to play around with for creative one shots and abysmal for agentic coding. I get that they are prioritizing world models over agentic coding and RSI but still, this is crazy that they're still struggling to catch up after looking set to take a clear lead multiple times now. I find it hard to believe for the same reason there's a consensus here they will win the AI race: they're f'in Google. No one comes close to having that amount of data or infrastructure or free cash flow.

Just now, Senior technical Anthropic staff are in Washington to meet with White House officials and try to fix a dispute that has taken the company's top models offline, a source close to the company tells Axios.

Anthropic is mobilizing quickly to make amends with the Trump administration, after safety concerns resulted in sweeping export controls on its most powerful models, Mythos and Fable.

Driving the news: Anthropic technical staff have held virtual meetings with White House officials since the administration's initial outreach on Friday, according to the source.

Sources from both sides say they are eager to resolve the issue. This is a developing story.
