This is my submission for The Chroma Awards in the Music Video – Musical Comedy category

This piece started at a Machine Cinema GenJam in lower Manhattan the first week of November. The folks from OpenArt were kind enough to sponsor the event and flooded all of us with credits to try out their new “Story” system, which is where “Cupcake Choir” began. So special thanks to OpenArt for making this piece happen in the first place!

I worked solo and came up with what turned out to be an animatic for this submission in around 2 hours. If I recall correctly it was voted “Most WTF?!?” at the end of the event.

The song was created in the ElevenLabs Music tool and the lyrics were written in part by that, and in part by me in conjunction with Goggle Gemini.

I used OpenArt and Krea for Veo 3.1 access. That handled most of the lip synced singing cupcakes. I think one or two shots might have been Wan 2.5. I always gave it a shot whenever Veo 3.1 struggled, which was rare.

Most of the screaming and bleeding cupcake shots were from Kling 2.5 Turbo, as were most if not all of the non signing shots. Kling 2.5 Turbo can make a cupcake bleed like no other model.

All of these shots were image to video. I created and edited the images in Krea with several different models, including Flux, Nano Banana, Krea 1, Qwen and then Nano Banana again for the editing.

I used Adobe Premiere to edit everything together, in addition to using Photoshop for thumbnails and general image editing tasks.

Everything was upscaled to 4k 30 fps in Topaz Studio, rendered locally on an MSI 5090 Suprim.
