ArtCraft

ArtCraft is the IDE for interactive AI image and video creation. We turn prompting into crafting, so your ideas become a form of tangible expression and computing. This is Adobe Photoshop for everyone, and we're giving away the source code!

Show, Don't Tell: Advanced Crafting Features

Text-to-image is great, but artists need control. It's important to know what your image will look like before you generate it, and it's vitally important to achieve consistency and repeatability.

FeatureDemo + Explanation
Image to LocationVideo Placing virtual actors into physical environments establishes single-location consistency. You can film multiple shots within a room without having things disappear.
3D Image CompositingVideo Use images (backdrops, foreground elements, props, etc.) in scenes with depth and blend them naturally together. Just a couple of images usually leads to great compositions.
2D Image CompositingVideo Use images, background removal, layers, and simple drawing tools to precisely compose a scene.
Image to 3D MeshVideo It's almost impossible to lay out complicated objects or block complicated scenes; turning images into 3D helps position elements exactingly and intentionally.
Character PosingVideo You can dynamically pose your characters to achieve the precise character, scene, and camera blocking before calling "action".
Scene Blocking w/ Kit BashingVideo Use 3D asset kits to precisely block out your scene: get the correct angles, object positions, and rich depth layering you can't with text prompting.
Character Identity TransferVideo Use mannequins as simple 3D ControlNets for posing any character.
Background RemovalVideo Remove backgrounds from images to make them useful in 2D or 3D compositing. They can be props, layers, or backdrops.
Mixed Asset CraftingVideo You can use image cutouts, worlds, and simple 3D meshes all together to precisely and intentionally lay out your scenes.

Note: all of the above videos were generated for free with Grok Video; the cost to build this README was negligible.
