All of my square format videos from OpenArt; although, not all of them are from my images. And background music! I haven't made a whole video in a long, long time -- it was fun. Then I had to trim it from 1920x1080 to 720x720 using Handbrake.

Mammoth
A caveman silhouette stands on icy ground with a forward-thrust spear, wearing heavy furs. A mammoth silhouette faces him in a side profile with huge tusks and a raised stance. A blood-red moon sits low behind them. A starry sky fills the background in a minimalist vector silhouette style. --chaos 30 --ar 4:3 --stylize 450

I ordered a package from Florida on 25 Nov., and it has had quite a journey with USPS. First it went up the coast to NJ, then on to Kansas City, and then to St. Louis. The it turned around and went back to Kansas City (oops), and now it's in Columbia, about 30-min.s away! 12 days so far.

Title: "Edge of Extinction"
Style: Dynamic and cinematic, with a sense of vertigo.
Prompt in ALT from @brett-baudin.bsky.social
AI-art #AiArtCommunity #synthart #Midjourney

Fun prompt to try out!
A cinematic high-angle shot captures a muscular cave man cornered on a razor-thin rocky ledge, his primitive spear raised defensively as wind whips through his long, tangled hair. Below him, a massive saber-tooth tiger crouches with powerful haunches coiled, its ivory fangs gleaming and yellow eyes locked on its prey, ready to strike across the narrow gap. The vertiginous canyon plunges into a dizzying abyss of layered stone formations that disappear into misty darkness thousands of feet below. Harsh sunlight streams from directly overhead, casting dramatic shadows that emphasize every crack and texture in the weathered cliff face while creating a stark contrast between the sun-baked ledge and the ominous depths below.

Golden on the outside, ashes on the inside.
I am the elegance of decline.

Here's one that's completely off the mark, but is still a picture that suggests a story. The person across the room looks older, not a lot older, maybe in her 30s.

This 1st one captured the kind of decolletage I want, actually more of a straight cut. And I am not sure if anything is going on in the second image, but I like her crimson velvet dress.
