I want to get lost in a world and story, and you simply aren't lost in a story if you're going from story to story every couple minutes which is the biggest downside imo. I like short stuff sometimes, but tiktok makes me mad dude. Even if something is meaningful it's gonna be over so soon and ur gonna be watching someone drop cakes off a roof or some such nonsense

AI doesn’t “democratize filmmaking” because the person prompting the AI isn’t doing any “filmmaking”. Coming up with an idea and giving it to a computer is not the same as making something. You say that AI and human artists can work together, but AI doesn’t require a person to do anything beside give the AI an idea. AI cuts out the artist entirely. Furthermore, if anyone can make an entire movie with a click of a button, why would they watch anyone someone else’s film? Why would they look for someone else’s perspective when they can watch the exact film they want? It’s not going revolutionize filmmaking, it’s going to clog our feeds with meaningless content.

AI is a threat not because of job shortages but because people would stop caring about other perspectives. If you see a film now you are "forced" into a perspective that you don't understand initially. With AI you can create whatever you want and experience the very thing you want to see but your perspective won't expand outside your comfort zone.
@DirectorsSpotlight3 ай бұрын
What you're saying is right sir, but it seems that your comment hold a assumption that everyone now going to make movies. Think of it like this, now everyone has smartphones and cameras but everyone doesn't bother to make a film, so just because people will have an access to a technology where they can make visuals by some prompts, doesn't mean they'll going to make movies for themselves and watch. If I put it simply, just like digital cameras and smartphones, A.I is going to reduce the barrier to entry, nothing more than that, at least that's how I see it.
@twigboy85883 ай бұрын
But if you have a camera you still have to put in effort to make a film. There is an art in framing, lighting, colour correction, editing, acting, VFX, SFX, writing, directing, sound design, score and every other job involved in filmmaking. You have to learn an art, and you can improve the more you do, and your skill set causes the end result. With Ai your skill does not effect the end result. It depends on the limitations of the Ai. You do not learn. There is no art in writing a prompt. The art is made by the Ai not the person. There will be no profession filmmakers if the art isn't based on the person. Ai isn't going to kill cinema. But it's sure as hell not going to help it.@@DirectorsSpotlight

AI image generation is unethical. It is stealing. Non-generative AI is totally welcome as a tool to help lower the barrier for entry in filmmaking and make things far, far cheaper and achieveable. Although, any “film” that uses AI generation for image or sound is a film that is lazy, unethical, and disrespectful to the labor of love and complexity that is true artistry. Until regulations are in check and artists can opt out from AI sourcing their work, AI filmmakers will receive zero of my attention and money

Yeah, La Haine isn't fully transcendental, but it shares some traits, like those moments where you're just with the characters as they hang around, doing little... It creates a sense of 'boredom' that actually engages you more, making it feel like you're spending time with friends. It's somewhat like 'Dazed and Confused' in that way :)

Fantastic essay and thesis on different forms of storytelling! I’m not entirely sure I think the piece lands on a coherence of it point on how these elements blend into the new medium… but in some ways that is the point, and I absolutely feel we are on the verge of a new medium being born that incorporates cinema with content. I think someone like a Megan Tan or the myriad of young content creators (mostly women exploding in popularity even though there are other genders developing this style) are starting to scratch the surface. Personally I think they are still blogging “cinematically” and this is still a precursor to what is to come. Anyway great videos and would be interested in hearing your take on the new way of cinematic bloggers.
@lofi.cinema5 ай бұрын
You're spot on with your observation. I've started to unravel how these elements might come together in a new medium, yet the full extent of their integration into micro short-form storytelling remains an open question. It's precisely what I'm exploring in my work, such as with my little experimental movie "Silent Room," although, as you rightly noted, we're just beginning to scratch the surface. The trend of cinematic blogging is an interesting evolving medium and plan to dive into exploration of cinematic blogging in a future video. This all ties back to democratizing cinema. My next video will look at AI's impact on breathing new life into how we tell stories. Thanks for sparking this discussion!🙂
