Synopsis

In this session, we will explore how artificial intelligence can be used to create a short film from concept to completion. This hands-on guide is designed to inspire creatives, technologists, and professionals interested in the intersection of AI and storytelling.

The presentation begins by examining how AI tools can assist in generating story ideas, refining scripts, and creating compelling visual designs. We’ll discuss tools like ChatGPT for scriptwriting, MidJourney for concept art, and Artbreeder for character creation. Moving forward, we’ll dive into voice synthesis, animation, and editing technologies, demonstrating how AI simplifies these traditionally complex processes.

Through real-world examples and tool demonstrations, attendees will learn practical steps to conceptualise, develop, and polish their own short films. We’ll also address the challenges and opportunities AI brings to creative industries, including ethical considerations and the role of human creativity in an AI-assisted world.

Whether you're a filmmaker, a tech enthusiast, or someone curious about how AI can revolutionise storytelling, this session promises to provide valuable insights and actionable takeaways.
