That's cool! It understands the silhouette request and the fact that a double exposure will overlap the subjects, but it doesn't work within the physical rules of the thecnique. Makes complete sense and creates very interesting results. The 3rd one is the closest to what a physical double exposure would look like. Very nice.

As a cinematographer now I'm curious of how much it can understand more advanced photography techniques. For example can it do something like "Double exposure photo of the silhouette of a man with fireworks in the background"? I made a similar photo two years ago and I'll leave it here as reference to see how similar it can get: https://i.gyazo.com/ace7c2bd76a8f2710859362314a1f8c0.jpg

Wow, this is really interesting. I agree with gbear605 the atmosphere is right with the backlit silhouette style of a lot of the film. The 10th one is really really good. It's doing the usual thing of taking the properties of one element and applying it to the other things like the color of the lighting here. I'm still curious about the inpainting approach to do images piece by piece. Similar to what I mentioned for the 2 characer problem. Maybe using inpainting you could go element by element in other instances of this problem so it doesn't get so confused. Seeing these results is very satisfying and insightful, thank you!

This is so incredible. I'm a cinematographer and I'm looking forward to having access because I'm curious how it'll perform in using it to make references for projects. I'm curious if it can take any specific film (not franchise) and take that style. An example of this would be something like "A man with a blue shirt walking through a dark hallway, in the style of Blade Runner 2049". If this works it would also explain why it is a bit loose when you mention Pixar the production company instead of a specific film with a more consistent style. A lot like the Miyazaki case. Also I think a solution for the two characters problem could be inpainting them. Lets say you like one of the versions but the characters aren't in the right position, is it posible to brush character 1 completley, put the description of character 2 and then do the same for the other one?
