| 03 On The Run | 50th anniversary of Pink Floyd: The Dark Side Of The Moon |

This video was made for THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON 50TH ANNIVERSARY ANIMATED MUSIC VIDEO COMPETITION #TDSOTM50 #tdsotm #pinkfloyd Each video in this series presents a song from ’The Dark Side of the Moon,’ blending traditional and modern techniques. The approach combines 3D animation and compositing with AI-generated imagery. All visuals are ultimately processed with AI to resemble hand-drawn, 12 fps frame-by-frame animation, echoing the psychedelic styles characteristic of the 1960s and 70s. This in order to capture the album’s essence in a digital format, reflecting both the album’s legacy and contemporary technology. “On The Run“ is abstract both as a song and in my visualization of it. There are some elements that are 3D animation made in LightWave 3D and some After Effects work. But the bulk of the video is one long, constantly evolving abstract AI-generated sequence created with Stable Diffusion and Deforum using Automatic1111. The result was thousands of evolving still images that were based on the lyrics and overall arc of the album, and my personal interpretation of the song. I combined the resulting animations onto the final cut in Vegas Pro, which was once more processed through AI and compositing to finalize the look.
