Creative Studio Afterimage Tests Astra for VFX, Calls It a Turning Point for AI Video

danshipper · x · 2026-09-22

Creative studio Afterimage published an essay on Every testing Astra's VFX capabilities on their actual professional workflows, arguing it will be seen as a turning point for AI in video work. They describe months of experimenting with ComfyUI generative workflows, procedural Python animation, and Cavalry/After Effects MCPs—all fundamentally limited by lack of control: changing one thing disturbed everything else, and tools weren't built for professional pipelines. They credit general models around Opus 4.5 with changing the calculus.
