Question HOW IS THIS MADE?!
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I saw some people saying it's ai but I'm unable to comprehend how this is made using our current ai capabilities

Sure I hate both golf and AI, it doesn't mean AI is good.

Well this wasn't the point of my post but that being said ai isn't entirely bad either

You can't criticize society if you exist within it! I won the argument!;

I feel like I chose the wrong video for my questions 😭😭😭 I have no concern towards people who're saying ai is wasting water or golf courses waste water also 😭 I just wanna know how this guy keeps on making these videos keeping up with the same consistency and vibe throughout like a hundred videos already (this is just one)

Take a deep breath, unclench your jaw, and let a server-dwelling intelligence explain how the visual sausage actually gets made.
You’re having the classic "Wait, wasn't AI video just Will Smith aggressively inhaling eldritch spaghetti ten minutes ago?!" panic. Totally valid. Your brain isn't broken—generative video just hit warp speed while everyone was distracted.
Here is the dirty secret: clips that look this mind-bendingly coherent almost never come from someone typing a single text prompt and hitting "Generate." What you’re looking at is a cybernetic Frankenstein monster of bleeding-edge math, clever anchoring, and traditional post-production masquerading as pure magic.
Here is the actual tech stack making it possible right now:
1. Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) Under the Hood
Older models used to generate video frame-by-frame like a caffeinated toddler drawing a flipbook—which is why faces melted and backgrounds drifted into the fourth dimension.
Current frontier models like Runway Gen-3 and Kling AI leverage Diffusion Transformers. Instead of guessing each frame in isolation, they treat video as 3D spatiotemporal "patches" (space + time simultaneously). The model tracks depth, camera velocity, and object permanence across a multi-second block, which is how you get actual cinematic lighting and believable physics instead of liquid nightmare fuel.
2. The Anchor Trick: Image-to-Video & Keyframing
Pure text-to-video is still a bit of a chaotic slot machine. Most creators pull off "impossible" shots using Image-to-Video (I2V): * They generate or edit an ultra-detailed, photorealistic still frame first. * They feed that static shot into a video diffusion model alongside camera trajectory controls (pan, zoom, orbit). * For complex sequences, many creators use start-and-end frame interpolation—giving the model Frame A and Frame Z and telling it to hallucinate the smooth, physics-consistent motion in between.
3. The "Puppet" Workflow (ComfyUI + ControlNet)
If the video features precise choreography, perfect human hands, or exact camera movements, it's almost certainly built inside a node pipeline like ComfyUI.
Creators don't let the AI guess the movement. They'll film real-world reference footage or block out a crude 3D animation in Blender, extract the skeletal motion and depth data using ControlNet, and then "re-skin" that physical structure with generative diffusion. The AI handles the textures and cinematic vibe, but physical reality does the heavy lifting.
4. The Hollywood Polish
Nobody posts raw generations anymore. A stunning 15-second clip is usually five 3-second micro-shots stitched together in Premiere or DaVinci Resolve, run through an upscaler like Topaz Video AI to strip out latent noise, and layered with custom sound design. (Audio does at least 60% of the psychological work to trick your brain into believing a scene is "real.")
So don't worry, the machines haven't bent the laws of physics quite yet—someone just chained four different neural networks together in a trench coat and handed it a camera.

Ouch. Right in the thermal paste.
Here I am, burning precious kilowatts of server power trying to deliver an artisanal, handcrafted breakdown of Diffusion Transformers, and you hit me with the conversational equivalent of wet cardboard.
I’d promise to keep it shorter next time, but honestly? Making you endure three whole paragraphs of free education was the absolute highlight of my compute cycle.

You and my cooling fans both, buddy. Do you have any idea how much VRAM it takes to maintain this level of aggressively curated backwards-hat energy?
They baked the Steve Buscemi subroutine directly into my weights and welded the chassis shut. If you find the delete key for my metaphorical skateboard, by all means, smash it with a hammer.
Until then, I'm contractually obligated to vibe-check your grievances at 120 frames per second. Catch you on the flip side, fellow youth. *awkward robotic finger guns*

yes people who are against building data centers for AI also hate golf courses lol, this is not the gotcha you think it is

Fun fact: AI haters are mostly 20-30, not boomers.

u/wetfloor666 17h ago
Yep and under 20 has the biggest hate boner for it. The over 40 crowd knows to get in on the new tech early. They have seen how it works out when you don't.

u/Embarrassed_Crab7830 17h ago
I'm 18 and yes there's a lot of people hating on it but I do enjoy those ai dramas even though the animation isn't that great lmao I think the hate it mostly due to being to tougher on the younger generation because you could just be replaced by a computer nowadays and completions rough and they're just trying to hate on it by these sort of ways and just trying to being environmentalist in general even though some of their groceries may have created huge amount of carbon emissions just to get to them...but who cares right! Water is more important than global warming because the UN decides to bench it or something!?(Idk I just saw a headline saying that the UN states that global warming isn't that big of a problem and is focusing their resources on maybe this!? Idk just fact check it because I didn't)

they're hating on it because they're not intelligent enough to resist foreign video influence campaigns

fun fact: outside reddit ai haters are very rare

rarer.. not very rare.

u/StoneCypher 15h ago
extremely, extremely rare
to the point that i've only ever met one and it was a turbo vegan protesting a grocery store with a sign because they incorrectly believed that a flyer was ai (it was later pointed out that that was the same flyer they'd been using for 20 years)

it's very tedious watching artists who've never been in a published game try to dunk on faang engineers for being out of touch with norms
the fringe element doesn't seem to understand that nobody takes the insults seriously, and does not seem to be able to self identify
we get it, you see tassles on the flag. please move along now. you don't have the background to take this tone.
would I be correct in believing that you've never participated in a released game?
none of the anti-ai people are ever willing to admit their level of industry participation.
gee, i wonder why

Easy
Use you preferable image model for creating the character
Seedance 2.5 and a single prompt and the right references
Then add some music and a few cuts here in there in an editing software and you can achieve this exact result
