GQ Einstein + Lincoln

This started as a remake of the Brad Pitt and George Clooney GQ video, except I replaced them with Einstein and Lincoln. It remains one of my favorite early AI video projects.

I fed screenshots from the original shoot into Ideogram 2.0 as image prompts. It held onto the framing and composition unusually well, which made the swap feel much more deliberate than a loose style imitation. I used Luma to turn the selected frames into video.
