AUDIOVISUAL

I developed an end-to-end workflow combining multiple AI models with Adobe's creative suite to produce extended, cohesive audiovisual art that transcends the fragmented nature of current generative tools. This process demonstrates AI as a profound augmentation and force multiplier for creative expression.

“Sonic Hypercube” demonstrates a pure generative workflow: taking images from DALL-E, animating them with Firefly, and stitching them together with a soundtrack in Premiere to create a singular audiovisual experience.

“Living Ink” extends the workflow to animate original vector art from Illustrator with both Firefly and Pika before synthesizing in Premiere.

“HarmoNex Radio” focuses on generating/animating hyper-detailed visuals in Firefly with Leonardo AI image upscaling and intentional audio syncing in Premiere. See nxs.design for more content on this artistic theme and exploration.

Strategic Multi-Platform Generation

Initial Assets: Create consistent visual foundation using Adobe Firefly, supplemented by DALL-E, Pika, and Leonardo AI for specific aesthetic qualities

Prompt Engineering: Developed "prompt families" with standardized elements to maintain visual coherence across generations

Cross-Tool Curation: Strategic selection based on each platform's strengths for specific visual elements

Sequential Frame Matching

Created technique for generating sequential 5-second clips with matching start/end frames

  • Beginning frame of each new clip visually matches ending frame of previous clip

  • Precise prompt engineering to maintain scene elements while allowing progressive evolution

  • Documented patterns for reliable frame matching across scene transitions

  • Created library of transition prompts that bridge different visual environments

Photoshop Enhancement Pipeline

  • Neural filter color grading across generations for visual continuity

  • Generative fill to expand images and connect scenes

  • Creation of composite transition bridges between stylistically different sequences

Premiere Pro Advanced Assembly

Seamless Transitions:

  • Frame-matched clips allow for nearly invisible cuts between generations

  • Morph-cuts for spicy visual transitions

  • Subtle speed ramping at clip boundaries for natural motion flow and sonic alignment

Music Integration:

  • Selected clips with rhythmic potential for synchronization

  • Mapped key visual transitions to musical beats and phrases

  • Used audio waveforms to time clip transitions

Results

  • Production of extended cohesive videos from dozens of 5-second generative clips

  • Seamless visual flow that conceals the fragmented nature of individual generations

  • Stage-quality output with synchronized audio-visual experience

  • Replicable production methodology for future projects

Forward Vision

This exploration reveals opportunities for tool evolution including sequence-aware generation, standardized cross-tool integration, and enhanced temporal control between generative segments.

The workflow demonstrates how thoughtful human direction can orchestrate multiple AI tools into a cohesive creative expression that exceeds the capabilities of any single generative system while maintaining artistic vision.
