First off: dude must be swole af.
Second: is he wearing a bunny hat?
Third: tiddies look amazing.

They say the hair is a good indicator of excellence in animation and also the most difficult thing to get right. This is not bad in that regard (plus she's hot and I have a thing for women in lingerie and wearing glasses).
Oppai!!!! ^_^
Look at that bouncing dairy farm!

These are steadily improving; the breasts and hair both look very natural in this animation, much better than some of the earlier tries (and to be clear, I blame the software, much more than the artist, here).
The sound and smooth flowing animation and how well it loops is way too good.
For some reason, the BJ animations always seem to work pretty well. The shadows of her movement and so on are handled very well.
Good girrrl... enjoy your treat, you did a great job! Now clean your mess up once your done seeing stars!
I added the scanlines back in after.
Did you apply the scan lines after the animation or did Wan handle the style on its own?
Well done. I particularly like how seamlessly the loop feeds back into itself.
Of course, the art work is great too -- that goes almost without saying!

On the technical side, this is images from the comic page cropped out and run through cog video, then upscaled and image-to-image filtered in stable diffusion using a LORA and hypernet that I trained on images of the morale officer. (The comic page itself also has backgrounds that are enhanced with stable diffusion - I sketched and shaded a rough background, then filtered them to add greeblies). I then ran it through RIFE to interpolate from 8fps to 16fps.
This took me a couple days of experimenting and messing around, with a large amount of compute time in between. It takes ~10 minutes to render a 6 second clip so it's a matter of figuring out a prompt and parameters, running a batch over night, then cherry picking the best results.
Hand animating this scene would take weeks, but the results and methods aren't really comparable. You're seeing this scene because it worked, where several other scenes did not. While I was generating clips, it was not clear that the walking shot was going to work at all as there were lots of derpy results, and even in the final clip I couldn't use the whole thing. But the final result is very realistic with shading and 3D camera motion that would be very hard to duplicate traditionally. The same with the shot of her walking down the stairs - it looks just like a handheld camera shot and I think you would need to have a motion capture source to duplicate that.
There are lots of things the model just can't do. Like having her walk into the hallway and turn down the stairs - not happening. It has to go forward from the image you provide, so it can't have a can't have a character walk into frame or hit a specific mark. If this model had the 2 keyframe targets that tooncrafter has it would be amazing, but I don't know if that's possible. Also just on some preliminary testing, I don't think it can make the princess from better this way jump up in surprise in the lightning scene.
It favors realistic shading - if you give it a flat shaded character you can get limited animation or lots of distortion. I've had mixed results on some of my characters but it seems to pick up well on this style of the morale officer. The output from cogvideo is very smooth, but it can do some weird things to faces and the overall shading style, thus I ran it through stable diffusion which has it's own problems and adds some flickering.
Re: Jiggle physics, I've gotten some ok results by feeding it photorealistic stable diffusion renders of girls in loose tshirts. Here's some misc results for science: https://satinminions.com/Cog-Misc-Results.html
The model seems to shine at realistic scenes with minimal movement. You get lots of subtle secondary motion and it holds the character's proportions well. I think there might be a hybrid use where you draw a character, generate an animation, then roto over it. Also for backgrounds and establishing shots, you can add rotation and animation to what would otherwise be an ordinary pan. Another case that seems to work with a little fiddling is techno babble displays, like the brain scan and graph stuff that appears on the morale officer's hud. So there are use cases but it's not the end times yet.

That actually was really good. I'm sure I could quibble a bit over the facial expressions and lack of motion both there and with her (ahem) upper body structure, but overall, I think that went really, really well. I could see the "lightning scene" from Better This Way being really well depicted in this version...
Well... Fuck. That is really impressive. I'm curious, how much effort and time did this take, disregarding software learning time, compared to drawing this with a more traditional frame rate?
I'm curious just how much labor effort and time this can save you.

That's pretty damn good, that all I can say.
LAMP is quite old. Maybe try some linux, nginx, postgres, python/js?
Problem is she is already using artificial eyes which probably have web server built in.
Ngl that sounds pretty rough bro, sounds like you got problems trying to find the right Linux OS for you lol nice meme regardless.
Forgive the meme. I have spent the last several weeks battling the four horsemen of linux, apache, mysql, and php to merely hold my ground against the inevitable tide of entropy. Although it does seem faster. Enjoy continuing to exist.
Yes quite humorous
it's funny that it put a heart above the dick lol
Kinda strange to see the Moral Officer/Prostitute in casual. Still, everyone's got to rest. And she's so sexy it shows even when she's not actively seeking it.
Expanding upon an earlier commenter's comment:
I'd like to see a Satin Minions sim-game which features a roster of all canon characters within the Admin's Universe of characters (specifically ones that have been fully fleshed-out* but not including ones that only exist in his sketch portfolio)
(*: 4X: Alison; Valochar; Melanie; Torin; Dark Altar girl and her unnamed demon paramour; Matilda/Maddy and her boss; unnamed tiefling character; unnamed For Every Sailor rubber "girl"; Path Of The Genie characters; Fem-Link and other L.o.Z. characters that the Admin has adapted to his Universe; unnamed Thicc Girl character and her futa paramour; Her Favorite Client protagonist; unnamed bodyswapped Fitness Girl character; the unnamed rope-play slave who's forced to ride a sybian; the unnamed sex slave from the Satanic nunnery who looks similar to Alison but likely isn't; et. al.)

Hey, someone uploaded your style as an AI model modifier. Under ... > Report, you can mark "This uses my art." and go from there.
Yes! Forget platformers. We need a Satin Minions dating sim staring the cyborg girl and her crew mates.
I tried clicking a few times, and I knew it was a mock up. Was expecting some mock up click options too :D Or Hoping I guess.
That looks really cool, reminds me of the classic Sierra Entertainment games
Hmmm, big bed can always be used for more than just sleeping
I actually tried to click a few times before noticing the word "mockup" in the title. :D
you clearly know that no games complete without a presentable badge
hell yeah
hell yeah
:^)
making a game are we? w
0_0
Or "would," whatever... :-)
Fascinating. I wpuld love this feature, I think.
As opposed to Alison's walk animation, I really like how comfortable / confident the Morale Officer seems to be with her body.
Hi, sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, but I can't seem to find anything about it. What's with the link to the Steam game dotted around the site? Did you work on it?
Yep, that worked. Thanks!
Looks like you'll have to reconnect your patreon account from https://satinminions.com/myProfile
I think this was caused by a patreon outage a few days ago. I'll go over the code and improve the error handling and logging of this.

Hmm. I've been a Patreon for a couple of years, and now suddenly, I'm not? Okay...
The music is AI generated using Udio.
The animation is nice, same for the music. Is there a link or info to where the music came from?
GYATT
This actually seems to work pretty well. Admittedly, there is some wonkiness with the hair and the background, but her body movements seem very consistent and we don't seem to be getting those weird body/facial transformations that often seem to crop up. Overall, I like this animation tool's results.
"This... This isn't what it looks like!"
"Really? It looks like you're getting buggered from behind in the shower."
"... Okay, so it's exactly as it looks like."

when is the morale stuff coming off patreon only?
Could you please do the same picture, but with someone standing behind her (doing the obvious) and pushing her up against the shower wall?
now are the heart eyes actually happening in this scene due to robot body shenanigans, or are they metaphorical lol
A happy Morale Officer is a successful Morale Officer.
Or should I say a successful Morale Office is a happy Morale Officer? :-)
