We Need to Talk, Ava Tar 😬 (Annual Performance Review)
SMcNicol,
You missed your calling on SNL. I'd actually laugh if you were one of their writers. This is excellent. I agree with everything on your wish list. I've used it sparingly because I don't want to run out of credits. We're a non-profit and won't have funds to purchase more credits. I hope Articulate grants you some credits for all your hard work sharing with the rest of the community. I learn so much from you every week. Thank you!!
BelleHabs SNL?! 😂 Okay, you just made my whole week. Ava wants it noted that she would also like to be considered for the cast. She’s already got the hand gestures down.
Thank you so much for this, and I totally get the credit rationing. I was doing the same thing right up until I wasn’t. 😅
Here’s a silver lining from Ava’s budget crisis that might help your nonprofit: AI images and AI audio don’t use credits. That’s exactly how Ava survived. I gave her a voice with AI audio and let her words type out on screen. You get a lot of personality for zero credits. Her face just has to stay on unpaid leave. 💸
A little secret: I actually get better character images from the AI Avatar image generator than from the AI Image tool. I know, strange! But it keeps characters more consistent from shot to shot, which is how Ava got her full range of emotions. (And her bonus hand. 🙌)
And if Articulate ever sends credits my way, Ava has a cardboard sign ready to go.
Thank you for learning alongside me every week. Comments like yours are the best part of sharing. 💙
