Exploring AI Image Creation: Turning Photos into Action Figures
Mike showcased how he used AI to create hyperrealistic action figures and Pixar-style images based on real photos.
How It Worked:
-
Uploaded Real Photos:
-
Used a standard headshot (non-AI enhanced).
-
Gave creative prompts like “remote worker action figure in bathrobe holding coffee.”
-
-
Custom Accessories and Details:
-
Added small props: coffee mugs, remotes, and even company logos.
-
-
Seed System in AI Images:
-
AI stored a “seed” to allow tiny edits without recreating from scratch.
-
Perfect for tweaking backgrounds, skin tones, or accessories without losing consistency.
-
-
Fun Ideas:
-
Created Pixar-style 3D images of grandkids loving rockets and ballerinas.
-
Made hyperrealistic images of pets doing funny things.
-
“With today’s AI, you can tweak photos to perfection and keep the original look intact.”
Real-World Applications
-
Marketing Campaigns:
Create branded avatars for clients to surprise them in reports or emails. -
Personal Gifts:
Make customized Pixar-style portraits for family and friends. -
Fundraising Support:
Mike used AI to compose an original emotional song for a local mental health nonprofit, moving audiences to donate more at their gala.
Songwriting With AI: A Special Project
Mike shared how he helped a local nonprofit by creating an emotional song using AI when licensing from a famous musician fell through.
Process:
-
Lyrics Creation:
Wrote heartfelt lyrics with ChatGPT based on the foundation’s mission. -
Music Generation:
Used AI Music Generator (like Suno or AIMusic) to create the melody and vocals. -
Impact:
The AI song brought the room to tears — and helped raise significant funds at the live auction.
How to Use AI for Maximum Creativity
-
Take Advantage of “Seeded” Images:
Modern AI allows subtle, specific edits without losing the original image. -
Generate More While It’s Hot:
When you get a thread of good images, create multiple poses, backgrounds, or variations for future use. -
Practical Business Ideas:
Pixar-style avatars of clients in emails or newsletters can massively boost engagement and brand loyalty.
Mastermind Takeaways
-
AI is a Superpower:
Those who learn how to use AI will move faster and be more creative than ever before. -
Think Beyond the Obvious:
Use AI for writing, imagery, marketing, and even songwriting. -
Collaborate and Share:
Mastermind groups accelerate growth by sharing tools, prompts, and best practices.
“AI isn’t replacing people — people using AI are replacing people.”
Closing on a Fun Note: Mastermind Jokes 🎉
-
Q: Why did the kid cross the playground?
A: To get to the other slide! -
Q: Why can’t you hear a pterodactyl in the bathroom?
A: Because the “P” is silent!
