So first thing, i'm not that good at feedback but i can tell you why i wouldnt watch it,

1. Ai images (this is pretty self explinatory) 2. The audio and you reading the poems seems very bland there isnt anything grandiose about it 3. Lacks emotion building

[tulip venture]

Yeah, honestly? The use of AI in terms of art and music alongside poems and stories you wrote yourself clashes. I dont think anyone would think the stories you wrote would be your own since youre already blatantly using AI instead of other types of artistic choices, why would writing be any different?

There are plenty of royalty free music banks for this exact purpose: youtubers who dont want dead air but cant afford to commission/license their own music. Some dont require accreditation, some do, but that’s really just a note in the description + a link to their page/video

as for artists, while commissioning is a good way to get artists to work with you, if you just started and arent making anything off of youtube, i dont doubt people would be willing to collaborate with you for free. While it might have some limitations, as these artists would be doing the work for free, so you would have to be willing to work with them and make compromises, a lot of people do actually need work to expand their portfolio for paid jobs, and so this creates a win-win situation for both of you

why i can't shortchange them i'm not gonna pay them 10 bucks and expect them to work on a full story with songs and music. what if i comissioned them for 50 usd for all the stills in the story and it doesn't deliver? i don't get but you seem like a hater. i live in asia where most people stopped pursuing literary arts plus none would be interested in this, i tried talking to people but they want 500-1000 dollars for 20 stills that's like buying a car money in korea. I also tried to do it by writing DnD campaigns and playtesting board games and Yugioh releases but i can't find one. I also looked for artists in tapas but no one would work for 15 usd a story.

Okay. I have no idea where youre getting any of this information from when all i said was work with other artists in terms of a collaboration with no expectation of money and use free resources for music

I never brought up paying anyone - i understand you might not be able to do so. I get that. Thats why i suggested free alternatives

You can post in #1052207342235688960 if you’re struggling to find anyone willing to work for you via your own means

they won't dude i tried. lol you really think gpt can craft an elaborate story like this when it churns out elara and elias repeatedly? wtf. i asks how i could turn it to a book. i didn't come here for people to slap the things i write for my wife. i'm sorry i got angry. but most of them just want to play minecraft

If you want feedback, you cant immediately call anyone who doesnt say what you want to hear a hater - this just makes them no longer willing to listen to you

[tulip venture]

I do not think chatgpt can, no, but im saying that if youre already using generative AI for your visuals and music, then its reasonable for people to assume the work you actually put in is also generative ai

I didnt insult anything you did. I just told you what this can be perceived as and how to combat that. If you want to work with artists for free, you will have to meet them where theyre at. Sure, they might not want to do 20 full color illustrations for free, but you dont need all of that when starting out. You could have them do an illustration that works for the thumbnail and the rest be sketches. You can see what they want to illustrate and work with it. You can use one illustration right now to carry your work

What im saying is that if you want your writing to shine, dont hinder it by associating it with generative AI. There is no reason to be this grandiose with your project if youre just starting out. If your writing is good, the visuals wont matter as much if theyre incomplete or just a single image, but having genAI anywhere near your own creative work will diminish its own value

Im confused did u want feedback or what did u want

[tulip venture]

I think this is sadly a case of “i want feedback that doesnt tell me to change what im already doing but gives me the name of a tool to immediately make me successful,” given the fact that i was called a hater immediately by giving levelheaded and valuable critique that took into mind their particular circumstances wrt financial compensation

…they left the server

[real yew]

Dont worry about it. This happens a lot more than you'd expect, but they're only hurting themself

You've done everyone a great service by kindly offering your time and effort! Thats all you can do, and the rest is in their ballpark now... if they chose to leave with this advice that was their choice

[tulip venture]

Thank you luna, i think i just felt really bad since i really did just join so this was just kinda disheartening

[real yew]

I bet, that looked like such a rough situtaiton to be in

But if it helps? This isnt because of anything you did. I was about to review them before you and Juko jumped in, and they would have left anyway

I've seen people leave after receiving some of the best advice I've ever seen written out by our top preforming creators in this server, just the same as I've seen people leave because someoen let them know that the link they uploaded for feedback is a private video

Its alwasy about them never you

Plus I think you were on the money! I couldnt say it better myself!!

this guy left?
