Are you passionate about cinematography and eager to explore the exciting world of AI filmmaking? Look no further! I'm thrilled to invite you to our first collaborative project: "The [...] Incident of [...]."
Check out the attached course schedule for a detailed overview!
🌟 What's in Store?
In this unique course, we'll harness the power of AI techniques to craft a fictional documentary about an extraordinary, supernatural event that altered the course of history. Imagine creating "The Flowerhead Epidemic of 1969," "The Catnado of Mousemantown," or "The great glitching plaque of New York."
Your documentary will feature:
✅ Compelling characters with lip-synced dialogue
✅ An engaging storyline that grips your audience
✅ Cinematic shots capturing the essence of the incident
✅ Captivating voice-over narration
✅ Immersive sound design and music
✅ Professional titles and lower thirds
🎯 What's the Goal?
Our aim is to blend traditional filmmaking principles with cutting-edge AI tools, offering you a chance to master the art of filmmaking in a modern context. By the end of this course, you'll have created your own AI short film (1-3 minutes) and gained valuable insights into both AI technology and classic filmmaking techniques.
Above all, we're here to have fun and grow as a creative community, so remember to plan the scale of your project according to your time to ensure an enjoyable learning experience.
🔧 How Does It Work?
Our journey kicks off on October 5th, 2023, and unfolds over eight weeks. Each week, you'll receive guidance, share your progress on our Discord channel, and receive constructive feedback from fellow participants and me! I'll also be sharing my insights from a decade in the film and VFX/animation industry.
With your consent, we'll showcase our processes and results on my YouTube channel, providing exposure for your creations! We also talk about marketing opportunities on various social media platforms & festivals.

This is a great way to learn all the steps to create an actual full Film. We are creating a community made film for October so this will have great tips.

This will be a first for me. I have a MacBook so not sure what tools are available for Mac. Any guidance beforehand would be appreciated…
Mick Mahler
haha I am hyped too!! You should already have some basic experience with AI and editing tools to complete the project. But in theory, anyone can participate. For example, you could make your project a little smaller and only do one scene or you could team up with someone else and do a group project. The goal is just for everyone to learn something and have fun!
