bookmark_borderVirtual Character Experiments with Flow Veo3

Posted on by savethesavages

Another virtual character experiment using my voice, this time I used Gemini to generate the character of me, then had it talk and animate in Flow Veo3. Then I had to record my own voice to replace the voice Veo3 generated and edited in Adobe Premiere. I’m sure they’ll find a way to do this faster but for now, here’s the result.

I’m procrastinating and holding off on creating my character for VTube Studio; it’s daunting and a lot of work. Also because I’m building a avatar/character of myself – I’m hella picky. But for now, this will do.

You can see the other one I did with Adobe Character for comparison using existing character elements. It looked pretty generic.

bookmark_border020326 – Video of This Magical Labradorite

Posted on by savethesavages

While people bring photos of their loved ones to work, I bring my rocks lol. Everything I say sounds crazy anyways but for a Fire/Air/Air dominant person – the stones actually ground me into the present moment. They literally keep me from floating away.

Here’s a video of one of my favorite Labradorite stones. Labradorite is a stone of magic and protection, I always have a Labradorite stone in my pocket when I’m driving. According to Gemini:

The Sagittarius Connection

  • Calming the Restless Mind: Sagittarians are known for a “busy” or restless mind. Labradorite is praised for calming an overactive mind while simultaneously stimulating imagination, making it perfect for your philosophical and adventurous nature.
  • Stone of Transformation: It is frequently called the “Stone of Transformation,” which aids in self-discovery and navigating major life changes—a natural fit for the expansive energy of Sagittarius.
  • Spiritual Intuition: It is believed to help Sagittarians trust their instincts and break through limiting beliefs during their quest for truth and exploration.

Edit Thu 2/26/26: the stone is no longer for sale as it has a chip on it. Perhaps it’s meant to stay with me? It’s already been with me for more than 6 years so…
