AI_da_ELENA, and me...
Some months ago I stumbled across some fine Ai works on Kling Ai.
One of the very first which took my attention was a piece posted by “Ai_da_Elena”.
At that time I knew very little about how Kling worked for sharing, but I surfed through pages by many Ai artists and I kept coming back to this page by “Ai _da_ELENA”.
One of the pieces which totally bowled me over was about a block of high rise housing flats in Russia.
It was very different from creations by so many Ai creators. It was not glossy or pretty, it was complex.
It’s style was documentary realism and it had a strong storyline.
I shared it with some of my friends and they too were just as gobsmacked as I was.
Here’s the piece I’m referring to:

Some of my friends who are extremely sceptical about AI were also astonished by the work Elena had created.
I tried to contact Elena via Kling Ai's messaging but it took a while to make a connection.
I was also intrigued by some of her posts which were sometimes just still images.
Some were short movie clips often only 5 or 10 secs long.
Here are some of Elena's still images which caught my eye:
I called this image "BRIDAL DROID"
I called this image "Asian Droid"
Elena's prompt was this simple:
A robotic Asian fashion model with elongated, distorted features and unsettling golden makeup
poses in a monochromatic dreamscape,
As you can see, I have a keen interest in droids of various types.
But there were also a couple of short movie clips:
I called this one: Lumi with XMAS tree background,
Elena’s prompt read:
With a subtle turn, the woman's gown catches the light, creating a ripple of sparkles that mirror the tree's
decorations.
So I called it RED PIANO.
Black Swan
Elena's prompt:
The camera orbits around the woman as she tilts her head against the glossy black bird, her
feathered garment shifting subtly with each whispered word. Her red lips tremble slightly
while delivering the tragic verse, dark eyeshadow intensifying her piercing gaze against the
moody gradient background. The bird's textured feathers catch faint light as it remains
motionless near her cheek. She hears the phrase:
"Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose, I shall but love thee better after death".
Along the way I noticed that Kling allowed some items to be re-created.
I did not know what the “rules” were in this regard, so I wrote to Elena asking her
if she would mind me recreating from Red Piano and the Asian Droid.
Elena’s response was great! She was amazed that I was even asking for permission
as I guess it was normal for people to just recreate when that button was displayed.
I told her I was a bit old fashioned.
So given Elena's positive response I created this short piece involving two of her images:
Für Elena
This was not an easy process as I was just learning to use Kling Ai, but I loved working through
it and Elena gave me praise for what I had achieved.
Then I went on to try to do something with Bridal Droid and Lumi and two other stills which
I named “Slender” and "Purple Dress"
 |
Elena asked me “Where is Bride Droid going?”
I said: “She's going to buy a new dress”.
But I had no idea what would follow from that ridiculous off-the-cuff statement.
So you see Elena and I have formed some sort of collaboration but it is open-ended.
One day just a few weeks ago Elena surprised me with this unexpected statement:
“I think it’s time for us to do a joint work!”
I jumped at her offer, but because she is busy with so many projects, I guess
our proposed joint work is still sitting on the backburner.
I wonder what it will be?
