Coming soon to a theater near you, the TV show you've all been waiting for: a look into the lives of some of today's most famous (and infamous) Praetorians.
These legends of the age of Conclave Arcana all have a story to tell.
What hides behind Jicarilla's sweet smile? Is Craniax, who carefully curates his villainous image, as quick as they say he is? And why won't he let others rest? Is the Inept Healer truly inept? How does Blazebeard drink ale? Or maybe all he drinks are flaming cocktails? What is Hodlor holding, really? Does Yaba's Pickle have feelings? Why won't Oridum put on a goddamn vest? Is Dar a manchild? What is Kaylia CEO of? Where is the Cavewise Wayfinder's pet Giraffe? Will any of these secrets ever be revealed?
Only if this trailer goes gangbusters will these secrets ever be revealed!
To create this video, I used Google Veo 3 to make video clips based solely off of text prompts. Google Veo 3 adds audio as well, and is fairly true to the prompts provided. The main lesson I learned from this experiment was that you want to give the right level of precision - you can't go too far or the AI loses the plot, but you can't go too light either as it'll fill in the blanks with its own interpretations. It took me about 3-4 attempts per clip to get it right. It's very capable of taking specific spoken lines and translating it to the character. Many of the clips aren't perfect but I ran out of generation credits!
If there's enough interest, I may just make some slightly longer episodes for some of the characters.
Enjoy!
