AI meets CGI - the automotive case study by Patrick Salonen Bildbearbeitung GmbH for you on GoSee.NEWS

With the release of the new version of Midjourney’s AI image generator, V6 alpha, at the end of December and the new, now 11th, version of the Corona rendering engine, what could be more natural than to combine the best of both worlds?

Digital artist PATRICK SALONEN tells us about the personal work presented here on GoSee : “These motifs are not to be taken all too seriously, but they do show the enormous possibilities now at our fingertips which we can use as a precision tool.”

Patrick Salonen Bildbearbeitung GmbH was founded in December, 2003, by Patrick and Barbara Salonen, and has provided comprehensive services for the post production of images since January, 2004. Complex compositions and challenging retouching for well-known clients have been part of their daily work ever since.

With campaigns for clients such as Audi, Volkswagen, Deutsche Bahn, DHL, Credit Suisse, Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, Subaru and many more, the studio has made a name for itself in Switzerland and beyond.

Digital artist PATRICK SALONEN and photographer Michel Jaussi present the ‘New Swiss’ series (with drones not AI) on GoSee

These motifs were created with tongue admittedly in cheek as part of the personal project by the name of ‘New Swiss’, which digital artist Patrick Salonen had the pleasure of realizing together with photographer Michel Jaussi. The symbols of various countries were simply placed into Swiss cities or landscapes.

This project was realized entirely using a drone (completely without the use of AI images) and a 100 MP camera as well as the 3D modeling software Maxon Cinema4D and the Chaos Corona render engine, plus of course a little Adobe Photoshop.

These motifs were on display for the first time in the exhibition photoSCHWEIZ 24 in Zurich this January, 2024.

PATRICK SALONEN : AI & CGI join forces - generated photo-ready environments for seamless CGI car integration

Post production & CGI artist Patrick SALONEN, fascinated by the possibilities of AI-generated images since the beginning of the year, has now used Midjourney to generate locations into which automobiles can be integrated by means of CGI.

“For purely AI-generated images with automobiles, it’s still difficult, despite in part elaborate and extremely detailed prompts, to get the exact model of the vehicle that you want or need. The fusion of AI and CGI can be the remedy in such cases and can, of course, be used in many other areas outside the automobile industry.” says Patrick.

Patrick is represented by GoSee Member YESWEPROMPT for the creation of AI images.

Patrick Salonen has been working as a specialist in post production and CGI for more than 25 years. Since 2004, he has been providing his services to many domestic and international clients, agencies and photographers in his own studio. As a permanent guest among the Lürzer’s Archive ‘200 Best Digital Artists Worldwide’, his work is widely recognized. The possibilities offered by artificial intelligence (AI) in combination with CGI and post production are of great interest to Patrick and complement his skillset perfectly.
