VP will slowly become a lost art if we continue being blind to AI gifs that are circulating in certain circles. I have always said that, in general, video game photography is not fully understood nor appreciated, even though VP creators work enormously to achieve the pics you love and consume.

Consume, yes, because it all boils down to consumerism and the fact that an AI gif, or VP, will give you a quick fix and a scene, or angles you cannot achieve in-game. Maybe that quick fix and strong dose of dopamine is the problem on both sides, for the consumer and "creator" of an AI video or GIF. The "creator" chases the praise high and gets addicted to it, while the consumer has their fantasies fulfilled.

I will not delve into the issues AI presents, as they have been extensively discussed on Tumblr. Still, I will get into the utter disappointment and hopelessness I feel as a VP artist when I see 1000 notes on an AI gif, while the photos I take with great care and thought (and reshade tweaks, angles, mods, colorization, post processing, etc), get 100 at best, and over 500 on a good day.

I have a side blog I will link here one of these days, where I create quite a lot, and the time I put into every photo is precious, and yet I, too, could just whip up a very damaging AI program to do all of that for me in mere minutes. I have more dignity than that, not to mention my ego cannot take the backlash I would get if I did admit to AI usage. And yet, people who do not admit to their work being AI get hailed and paraded around like heroes. Rewarded not only for the usage of AI, but for their dishonesty as well.

Just a rant that I needed to get off my chest...

Hope you all had a great Halloween

I'm going to go and cry now (so sorry Rolan, I love you)

This was meant to be my Halloween post, Rolan being taken by the shadows, but I haven't felt like posting as much here recently 💚 I hurt my own feelings taking these.
