AERO: the record
The making-of of AERO: the story and the prompts for every tool. Credits: directed by anabology; production by Claude.
How it was made
The making-of: the spark, the song, the look, the brief, the Vista desktop coded as THE PC, her takes and the lip sync, the sound layer, v1, the notes on it and v2, the first 1:20 rebuilt in Blender and in and out of the screen, the new ending, the final shot by shot, what worked and what didn't, and the numbers.
PromptsMidjourney and GPT Image
Every Midjourney prompt, all seven batches, and every GPT Image 2.5 instruction: the first looks, the first-person story frames, her in the look, the storyboard, the plates, wallpapers and window pictures, the drop's world, her face put into Midjourney's worlds, the 2008 stills, the game screens and the wallpaper that replaced Midjourney's, and what each pick became.
PromptsSeedance and Midjourney video
Every video take in production order: Seedance 2.5 on Higgsfield's API and on Replicate (her takes, the world's, the moving 2008 places and game screens, v3's coast, maglev and Wii takes, the new ending) and the loops of Midjourney's video model, with their inputs, prompts, outcomes and prices, and which reached the final cut.
PromptsSuno
The song's record: the lyric drafts and their scores, the seven Suno rounds and their styles in words, the take, the song measured, the new ending, and the lyric as sung with its times.
