@Technomage I know, I’ve tried it with free credits but it’s just too expensive. It’s a shame because it’s easy mode compared to all other models, and I’ve seen truly breathtaking clips. I’m still enjoying what I manage to create locally but it’s nowhere near SD2.5 levels in terms of quality and prompt adherence.
Is this Seedance 2.5, or Kling? Not bad, but if you managed this with a local model like MiniMax or WAN, it would be truly impressive.
@TakoAlice8 said in Why isn’t there much media about giants?:
whenever I type giants into youtube
My channel got nuked off Youtube but I had lots of giant media, including scenes from La Planète Sauvage (Fantastic Planet) 
Depends on what you mean by “giant” (relative/actual?), but yeah mainstream is absolutely dominated (hehe) by giantess media, especially right now it seems it has gone “mainstream”.
I want to rewatch it fully and take my time to properly digest it before I commit to writing a review, but just as a general feeling I’m still amazed that this show even exists. They managed to included so many details that tells me someone on the writing team is either “one of us”, or they seriously did their homework.
Of course I have plenty of nitpicking and things I would have preferred to see (or not see) but to me this is destined to be a classic in the size community. There is also rumors of a second season, but for me this story is done, and I don’t see how they could top it. Sure, I’m never against MORE shrinking women, but that by itself is not enough to make a mainstream show.
Meanwhile, I’ve posted some clips (one per episode) on my channel if you want to take a look but beware, they all include spoilers (they are currently blocked by copyright in the USA, but visible everywhere else)
Entertainment Weekly created a short reel to advertise their coverage of The Miniature Wife. I made a copy for my SW archive :

Here is their article:

Loved this quote 
“What interested me about it was just the conversation: What is soft power versus hard power,” says Banks who, alongside Macfadyen, also signed on as an executive producer. “Because obviously he’s physically huge and could squash [shrunken] me like a bug, but I have a lot of soft power in the relationship and influence over him and know how to use it.”
Also using props to make her feel smol 
“The ultimate goal was to do as many things as we could to make this feel grounded for Elizabeth, because the bigger the prop, the more she felt like a 6-inch tall woman…”
JUST OVER A WEEK LEFT… this is it! 
Oh yeah! Peacock just published a short behind the scenes video with more new footage…

I’ve already answered that one on Reddit
I’m not dominant IRL. I’m a shy, introverted guy, always have, always been (to an extreme as a child, which lead to bullying and other unfun things). But seriously, that’s like… 90% of the reason why I enjoy the fantasy of shrinking women down - in my mind, when they are vulnerable, I can become confident with them, someone in charge, in control, and/or protective and assertive.
If you knew me IRL, you could never guess that I hide a dominant side.
I’m pretty sure the idea of shrinking someone, making them smaller, vulnerable, was born as a cope for my IRL social anxiety, introversion and extreme shyness. Imagining a place where I’m in control, confident, where I’m in charge, and having someone to care for and protect, is all that I’m lacking IRL. A shrunken woman can be my toy, a comfort plushie, a friend, a lover… And it’s always been a source of comfort to me, and the secret place my mind goes to unwind.
@BryTheGuy said in Variety article on upcoming The Miniature Wife:
Might just be the scale of the VFX not being 100% consistent between scenes.
Can’t ever trust normies to focus on the most important details on the show /jk
Even with a tape measure they failed 
That’s below six inches!
Couldn’t resist uploading a few screenshots
Handheld… is it their first?
She’s less than 6 inches, maybe 5?
Finger hug
I’m very sorry @Olo but the new trailer is OUT!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BnQ7WqkkmE
It’s a “poof” shrink 
but seems to be shrinking out of clothes!
Also : Handheld, finger cuddles, giant wedding ring…
I’m expecting the full trailer to drop around March 8th, so only a few more weeks now. In the meantime, Collider published a new picture from the show!
In anticipation of the premiere, we’re excited to spotlight the adaptation with a new image of a teenie tiny Banks as part of Collider’s Exclusive Preview series for upcoming spring television shows and movies.
Love that she beheaded the Nutcracker prince, and how she’s using the earbuds Also shows that she’ll remain shrunk for a long time, which is great for character development and the effect that will have on her mental health. I mean, it’s one thing to be tiny for a day, but for weeks… months?!
Short clip from an interview with Elisazeth Banks, promotion for Miniature Wife during the Superbowl pre-show. I just love how they’re casually talking about shrinking, and that they actually used a doll prop for him to record his lines, basically doing “sizey roleplay” IRL when filming.

“He accidentally shrinks you…” Hahaha, yes… an accident. Totally!
In the book he does shrink stuff for her, so that’s how she’s getting the tiny things her size. I wish she was in an actual dollhouse rather than one with plumbing and electricity but I understand it’s easier for them with the sets and all.
Well that didn’t take long Enjoy the short teaser (trailer should come out later this month!)

Only a bit more patience now…
