Beyond the Brief: Creating a Music Video Entirely With AI

The summer of 2024 will go down in music history as one of the greatest eras of music in human history. Taylor Swift dropped The Tortured Poets Department, the country world met the Beyhive with Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter, and Charli XCX made sure we know what it means to be BRAT. But while all those albums are amazing, we like to think the biggest reason this summer will be one to remember was our debut album, Make it Pop Vol. 1. Like any artist, releasing a new album is just the first step. Next, we needed a music video for our first single, Corporate Blue. That's the challenge Júlio Aymoré, Superside's Creative Director of Generative AI Excellence was given: Creating an AI music video. He took it up a notch and decided to only use generative AI for the creative. The Brief: Making an AI Music VideoAymoré was asked to produce a 30-second video for the track Corporate Blue and given something we think of as the holy grail in our industry, the commandment: “You have full creative freedom.” Stepping up to the challenge, he decided to make a music video that was produced only using AI.

Beyond the Brief: All the Buzz About AI-Powered Ads

Global agricultural technology leader, Syngenta uses science to advance crop production. However, even the most cutting-edge innovations must work in harmony with nature. Attracting pollinators, like bees and butterflies, Operation Pollinator helps boost crop yields.But what does this have to do with using AI for ad creative? When guided by human ingenuity and expertise, AI is a catalyst that lets you quickly explore and refine ideas.Learn how partnering with Superside helped Sygenta speed concepting and nurture the storytelling of these groundbreaking ads.The Brief: Promoting Operation Pollinator To kick off the project, Syngenta shared an existing Operation Pollinator explainer video. There were no static images for this initiative, which meant the creative team was starting from scratch. Vidrio and Montelongo had a blank slate, a lot of freedom and only two days to complete the entire project.

Beyond the Brief: Generating On-Brand AI Illustrations

It’s no surprise that cats and dogs dominate the internet, but you don’t have to tell Independence Pet Group (IPG) this. The Chicago-based pet insurance leader covers over one million pets across the US and Canada, keeping them (and their fur-parents) healthy and happy.We love cats and dogs, too, so when IPG asked us to create illustrations for their employer branding efforts, we were all in. The challenge? IPG had never used illustrations before. The most efficient way to go from zero to concepts was to use AI, so our AI-powered creative team went to work. Let's just say, the results were quite fetching. The Brief: Creating Custom AI IllustrationsPets have been sources of inspiration in workplaces for over half a century. Fast forward to 2024, and IPG was looking for a way to help its team show their love for pets with internal branding. The brief called for a variety of assets, including stickers and virtual backgrounds, that reflected the brand colors and were "unexpected and fun."One twist: Since IPG didn’t have an established 3D illustration style, we were starting with a blank slate.

Frequently asked questions

Our AI-enhanced projects consistently achieve high customer satisfaction scores, reflecting our commitment to delivering top-notch results through a blend of human expertise and cutting-edge technology.

No–at Superside, all design tasks are not solely completed by AI. Our human creatives play an integral role in every project, collaborating with AI to deliver tailored, high-quality design solutions. Unlike many AI design agencies, we pass all the cost savings from using AI services directly to our customers. For instance, if a project originally estimated at 10 credits of work is completed in 6 credits with AI services, the remaining 4 credits' worth of savings can be applied to another project or rolled over to the next month. Additionally, our commitment to quality ensures that the baseline quality of AI-enhanced projects matches that of normal projects, ensuring consistent excellence across all our deliverables.

AI enhances the efficiency of design projects at Superside by using generative AI technology to help customers explore a greater range of concepts more quickly while streamlining resource allocation and production times. This collaboration has resulted in a 70% faster turnaround time from creative development to project delivery. With over 500 projects completed to date, we continually train approximately 40 new creatives each month to effectively utilize AI tools, further optimizing efficiency and productivity.

Yes, if you prefer a more hands-on, human-centric approach, you can absolutely request projects without AI involvement. However, it's worth considering the trade-offs–while skipping AI might offer a traditional touch, it could mean missing out on lightning-fast turnaround times, cost savings, and a burst of creativity that sets your brand apart. It's important to note that while AI offers significant benefits, the baseline quality of projects remains the same whether AI is used or not. This ensures that the final deliverables meet your company's standards and brand consistency, regardless of the approach taken.

Yes, your designs will be unique even if you use our AI-enhanced design services. We ensure that each design reflects your brand identity distinctly. We have helped some of our customers generate 3,300 unique images and reduced design time by 37.5%. Our AI creative experts shape unique visual tones and distinctive design elements to craft a consistent and impactful brand narrative. For instance, We helped Amsive create 12 groundbreaking visuals, all 100% unique on-brand. Each project at Superside receives a purpose-built team tailored to its unique objectives and style, emphasizing the importance of uniqueness in every design.

Superside aligns with your existing brand guidelines to ensure brand consistency in AI-enhanced design or any kind of design.

Yes, AI can significantly reduce turnaround time for design tasks. In our own experience, AI-enhanced projects use an average of 60% fewer design hours. Beyond automating time-consuming tasks like resizing and reformatting, AI gives you more room for human creativity and exploration. From brainstorming and concepting to streamlining and optimizing, AI lets you do more with less.

Yes, with Superside, you can give your input and feedback as your design evolves with AI. In fact, we build it into the process, ensuring that customers are an integral part of the review and feedback stages. Once you submit a project through our collaboration platform, your project manager will review your request and confirm your expectations. Then you’ll be included at every step from concept development to final approval. We continually evolve our collaborative platform and customer experience, adding integrations like Slack and Asana as well as enabling sharable links for all shareholder reviews.

No, there are no additional costs associated with AI-enhanced design services with Superside. Our customers pay for the overall design subscription service, which may (or may not–the choice is yours!) include the utilization of AI. If any, our AI-enhanced designs are cheaper, maintain the same quality and offer faster turnaround times, ensuring that the savings are passed on to the customer. On average, our AI-enhanced capabilities save 60% of credits per project, with all savings directly benefiting the customer.

Using AI in design projects brings many advantages. It automates tasks, gives insights data-based insights, enables personalized experiences and boosts creativity. In addition to efficiency and cost-savings, it lets you explore more creative approaches and scale your overall design capacity. With novel approaches, it sets you apart from the crowd. And, as generative AI continues to evolve and improve, the possibilities are nearly endless.

Our AI is applied to design and marketing workflows for a range of industries. Whether they're SaaS or medical, it's more about the design than the industry application. As an outsourced marketing and creative partner, Superside has helped hundreds of brands across a range of industries from high-tech to imperfect foods. Beyond the industry, the common denominator is Superside's ability to help high-growth customers scale their design. Some of the most common use cases for our AI-enhanced design services have been developing custom image libraries and scaling ad design. However, AI keeps evolving and so is Superside. Any industry relying on design, user experience and data-driven decisions can benefit from AI-enhanced design services.

AI helps save costs in design projects in several ways. It automates tasks like image editing and data processing, which means less manual work, faster turnarounds and lower labor costs. Because designers can work more quickly, there's less risk during the concept exploration and development phase, letting you try new ideas and more of them, with less risk. It also makes teamwork smoother, reducing misunderstandings and do-overs. Plus, AI speeds up design and testing, so there's less back-and-forth and less money spent on corrections. That’s how AI's automation and optimization in the design process lead to significant cost savings.

AI design tools have gotten really good and can make top-notch stuff in many cases. However, whether they can match human-made designs depends on a few things. For tasks that are repetitive and need to follow strict rules, like making basic graphics or layouts, AI can often do just as well as or even better than humans in terms of speed and consistency. But in situations where emotions and originality matter more, AI designs might not quite measure up to what humans can do. Human designers bring their own unique ideas, feelings, and cultural understanding to the table, which can be tough for AI to copy.

After research and evaluation, we've curated a selection of the most reliable AI tools available. These tools include; ChatGPT, DALL-E, Midjourney, Craft, Pika, Adobe and many more. Our commitment is to ensure that you benefit from cutting-edge technology, backed by proven reliability and performance. Trust in our expertise to bring you the best in AI innovation.
