Star Wars is so ingrained in pop culture’s collective psyche that it is impossible for me to create scenes featuring characters choked by invisible forces like vengeful spirits without someone referencing Darth Vader, so I made a video featuring a criminal empire lead by a Sith Lord.
I’d invite you to enjoy Permanently Retired, but I’m kind of hoping you’ll choke on it. 😛
Though I’m not writing from experience with narcotics, Seedance 2 is proving to be the AI equivalent of heroine – the level of cinematic quality it delivers when it nails a prompt keeps making me want to experiment despite its high cost.
I posted a topless, single-page comic version of this scene in March. Last night, I decided to try turning the original, clothed image references into a video. About $27 later, I had enough footage to work with, and am pleased to share the final cut for your viewing pleasure.

I learned a new technique for deliberately rendering nudity with Seedance 2, and couldn’t resist experimenting. Details on the link below.

I was watching a kill count from the TV series The Mist the other day when one particular death inspired the idea for this piece. Try as I did, I couldn’t get Nano Banana to render a .38 revolver, so my character was packing some heat when she was grabbed.

I have long maintained that AI video is nowhere near at a level of audio/video quality that meets my standards, as evidenced by numerous attempts I’ve seen throughout the death fetish community. That changed, two months ago, when ByteDance released Seedance 2, and it’s right on the line for what I would be willing to pay for and use for creating fetish-themed AI videos.
Content filters aside, Krea.ai is my platform of choice for creating fetish-themed AI art because their interface is the most well-designed, most intuitive I’ve seen across the AI platforms I’ve tried – that includes BudgetPixel.com, Venice.ai, GetArtCraft.com, and Google. They have Seedance 2, and last week, they let their subscribers have unlimited access to it. Up to 15 seconds of video (the model’s maximum length) at 480p or 720p (it’s capable of 1080p), and as many iterations as we could render for 7 days, free of charge. Their normal rate is 3,371 credits for a 15-sec clip at 720p, or about $5/clip.
The first few days of the promotion were creative nirvana. Sadly, it all went to shit Thursday night. The demand proved too much tor their servers, and no one could render anything with Seedance for the remainder of the event. The promotion ended at midnight Monday morning, and the only compensation they’re giving new members who joined for the promotion is 20,000 credits if they rendered less than 5 videos. I joined their Individua Max plan for a year last November, so I wasn’t monetarily effected, but the technical issues were no less annoying, and briefly drove me to Venice.ai over the weekend so I could finish one last project I had started on Krea.
Seedance is a spectacular model, but it’s not perfect. One significant drawback is that ByteDance requires selfie verification to use photoreal faces in an effort to keep users from generating copyrighted characters and deepfakes of real people. I understand their concerns, and appreciate their efforts, but there’s got to be a better, less intrusive method than requiring a selfie. Worse, even if you verify yourself, there’s no guarantee it’ll work – as reported by a handful of users on Krea’s Discord – and you’re limited to using your own face as an image reference. Apparently, Krea misunderstood that little detail, so they disabled the requirement for their promo. Unfortunately, they re-enabled it after briefly fixing their server issues on Saturday, thus putting the kibosh image references that use even AI-generated people. For the record, I don’t use deepfakes.
It’s also far too expensive for me to even consider using on the regular. Case in point, it cost me $50 and 15 iterations of the foot shot in Hanged in Silence before Seedance produced a version I could work with using another platform while the model was down on Krea. Unless the price drops, or Krea runs another promotion someday, I’m sticking with static images.
Thankfully, I managed to complete twelve and a half projects using Seedance during the promotion, and only one of them, Broken Tranquility, doesn’t include a face. It’s among seven other videos I made to share with the fantasy death fetish community, and they’re now available here on my site for your viewing pleasure.
That said, I hope you enjoy my first efforts at fetish-themed AI videos!
Never knew I could be turned on by group bondage until I combined it with my favorite age range, character archetype, and real-world fashion sense.

Ever since Google released Nano Banana last August, its ability to generate photorealistic – and anatomically accurate – women’s feet has proven incomparable. Furthermore, not having to rely on 3D content vendors and their ideas of womens fashion has been a godsend for me as an artist whose specialty is career women in peril. Consequently, try as I have, I can no longer use Daz in my workflow when creating fetish-themed art. Therefore, I’ve worked out a compromise with myself that will keep Daz in my toolkit by limiting it to non-fetish 3D art.
That said, I’ve returned to Krea while my annual membership is still active – it expires in September.
