Hallucinations & HyperForms

Service Description

Hallucinations & HyperForms is a comprehensive online studio workshop spread over 5 weeks. It will cover first the revolutionary Artificial Intelligence (AI) platforms used to generate hyper-realistic visuals depicting architectural design spaces, and various other themes. The next phase will be an in-depth look into (NeRF) neural radiance field, which is a fully-connected neural network that can generate novel views of complex 3D scenes and 3D models, based on a partial set of 2D renders generated from Midjourney. We will then move onto (GANs), specifically StyleGAN2, and then move the 3d assets, GAN simulations and scenes inside UE5. World-building is a term that varies in different industries, but in our case, the last stage of the studio, is essentially architecture, environment art, and design. Building a world in a way that tells a story, and making a storyboard that feels as cinematic as possible. Toward the end of the studio, you will find the main topics to help you design and build your environments and merge all the AI assets into one wholesome project inside Unreal Engine.
