it’s always crazy to me that everyone copies the apple ads and no one copies the playstation ads

WHEN WILL I GET A JOB I finally found a scene from my favorite lost media “A I’m, Unemployed!” This is my favorite scene/song “When Will I Get a Job?” It’s literally about me. I’ve been open to work for several months now. I’ve put out hundreds of applications. I had this song playing in my head after the first 100 applications, and I wanted to make it “real”. I’m sure a lot of you feel the same way. I collaborated with AI, like rwx says in the song “since that skill is in demand”. I wrote the song, built stems in Suno / ElevenLabs, directed the scenes, leveraged several video models to generate them. I probably ran too many generations, but I really wanted it to match the vision and direction in my head. Dice rolling gens can be a process. I edited and produced the video, and built out the soundscape. I primarily edited with Adobe Premiere and Audition (yeah, I know a lot of you are moving away from it - but I’ve been using Adobe since like 2002). A lot of us have feelings about AI. I know I do, but I also think the core of anything we make with it should be human driven creativity. I have huge respect for human-made art and content. I can build real footage and campaigns as well and have made more briefs/quarterly strategies than I can count. If you’re looking for a creative director or marketing director, I’ve got over 15+ years across the roles. Shoot me a message if you wanna check out my portfolio. I’ve done major campaigns for huge companies in fintech and frontier tech. I’m looking for a full-time role that’s Remote, Hybrid in Denver Metropolitan / Boulder area, or on-site in Greeley, Loveland, and Fort Collins. big love, rwx

Diela Maharanie’s work is immediately recognizable: bright colors, saturated patterns, and dreamlike characters that carry a quiet sense of mystery. She is part of Kento Season 01: Web Nostalgia. @dielamaharanie 🧵
