What tools are used to create this AI music video?

[Sandy6]

I found some music that I use for studying, working, and relaxing. I know the images are AI-generated, but I’m not sure which image generator they used or how they animated them. Here’s an example:

I’ve tried using tools like DALL·E and MidJourney, as well as other image generators, but I haven’t been able to achieve the same results as what they’ve done. The style is medieval RPG pixel art. Another example:

I’m also curious if the music is AI-generated as well.

For the animation, I suspect they used tools like After Effects, Photoshop, and Premiere for video editing. They seem to make the images move, add effects, and even replace elements. For example, a static fire might be removed and replaced with a new fire effect. Interestingly, the new effects, like fire and smoke, are also pixelated. Here’s another video:

I’ve spent about a week researching this, but I still can’t figure it out. I have some creative ideas and beginner-level editing skills.

Does anyone know exactly what tools they use for image generation, animation, and music creation? Thank you.

Its layers. These are simple animations that can be recreated with layers. You have a static background(everything that dosent move un the first image its the sky the mountain the people the ground the tree).and then a layer on top with a repeating fire animation. And then another later of yellow becoming more visible then less visible. And then another layers with branches on a tree rotating up and down. You can recreate these in an animation program in like 30 mins or less thats why I think its not ai.

The wave is harder but its the same thing. The wave comes in then recedes and fades out. Probably not ai generated animation. The wave isn't two waves its the same wave animation on two different layers. The wave isn't crashing its just a white line moving from the horizon and becoming bigger as it crashes into the other wave and then the wave fades in . Recedes and fades out.

You can use a program called open toons to animated and its free.

Here are the results with DALL·E:

Today, I installed OpenToonz. Let me figure out how to use it. Thanks!
