It’s interesting to see Gaussian splatting show up in a mainstream music video this quickly. A year ago it was mostly a research demo, and now artists are using it as part of their visual toolkit. What I find most notable is how well splats handle chaotic motion like helicopter shots — it’s one of the few 3D reconstruction methods that doesn’t completely fall apart with fast movement. Feels like we’re going to see a lot more of this in creative work before it shows up in anything “serious”.
