5 AI tools Revolutionizing Filmmaking in 2023

How I'm using new AI tools to enhance my filmmaking and save time.

Thank you Rubidium! I have need of the storyboard generator right now, I was working through generative fill in Photoshop and it wasn't quite as fast as I had hoped.
The other tools are very cool and useful too.

Who owns the final output? Lots of people are asking this.

wow, so cool, thanks you for sharing.

BTW - I’m working with a guy on the later - VERY difficult to “automate” based on sampling - and have it sound like anything more than “voice sampling” out of context with the voice being used to establish a character as a - continuum - again because video is shot in “still frames” and audio is shot in WAVES!

Try matching a digital mix to an analog recording…

Hi, hope all is well. This very exciting, Ty for sharing. When you mask the subject in DR, can you then change the background? Nice to meet you BTW and subbed.

Boards is terrible.
How do you keep using the "Free version" when it has like 4 credits?

[SouthpawAutoworks]

Very interesting.
Really appreciate you sharing this.

Hormozi subtitles... haha

Thanks for mentioning us! Our goal is to help everyone who works with video to streamline their work flow and make promoting their content more efficient. We're focused on building a future where AI can enhance human's capabilities for creativity and art rather than replace it.

Give it 10-20 more years, being an artist won't be a viable career choice anymore - I know it was always difficult, but now it will become almost impossible, except for a really small elite who are able to mass produce their content.

People 3-4 years ago: Keeping up with social media is too monotonous and time consuming! I can't do it all!

People now: But think of all the editors and social media people this is putting out of a job!

It's just getting rid of the monotonous busy work that slows down creatives. AI isn't going to kill creative people or creativity. It's going to raise the bar for what can be done because video people aren't spending all day re-framing videos for vertical crops and captioning tik tok content or coming up with lame captions for faked UGC for small brands.

No worries…

I’ll worry about AI the day it can take a movie in one country and - translate - it to another country!

What? They already do that? Okay, “Squid Game” Intl Hit! But really a great movie? The translated dialogue was CRINGY BAAAD! Had it not been for the WOM that everyone NEEDED to see… else the first episode would have turned off the critical masses… like all other movies from Korea or anywhere else…

There are two impediments; the dialogue ie translating local idiom into another idiom that sounds realistic in both… humans can’t do it so AI can only do it WORSE (because AI can only mimic and automate… not THINK or FEEL)

The 2nd impediment is the Actor - even if the language translation is completed - you are asking an actor to mimic another actor - even the most talented actor can’t do that because it is not “acting” it is mimicry and - while entertaining on a talk show - no one wants to see Benedict Cumberbatch mimicking Harrison Ford for an entire movie (though that might have helped the Last Indy!)

In fact, AI can’t even take an accomplished actor’s work and “speed it up” or “slow it down” because the algorithm for FPS is the opposite of Audio’s waves…

The day AI can fix a bad recording is the day I begin to fear that we won’t need actors, editors, directors or even writers!

Until then - let’s rejoice that AI can fix things like colorgrade or ambient noise… Sheeez!

(Yea, I work with computers and nasty algorithms)

Congratulations on eliminating jobs! Dehumanization of cinema, speeding up production past the point of the creative individuals’ ability to process and reflect, paying third parties that data mine your IP for their benefit…these are not a measure of progress.

Wow, think of all the people this will put out of work! Storyboard artists - my bad I mean sorryboard artists- youre outta here!

Beginner editors new to the industry getting some contacts? Getting experience doing shorts editing or repackaging content? Getting some work in your portfolio to move up? Nah, *get fxxked*, thats what you get! McDonalds is hiring!

ADR companies, teams, RIP brah! Lighting crews and DOP’s - enjoy getting paid less lul! we’ve got autoscoping now but youre welcome at the ‘do it in post’ party! Byob tho mfers! Never really needed you anyway!


Its all great for me - I’m not that skilled. I was prepared to work hard to *get* skilled but yippie kay ayeee now I can just wing it and get by with all this stuff..

Hope you’re looking forward to competing on price because I have no portfolio and no overheads, but hey if the work don't pay the bills no more you can join the junior editors over at Maccy D’s, they'll prolly put in a good word for ya!

…


Man it sucks to catch the tail end of a time where putting a good crew together of talented people who have worked hard to earn their skills was the ideal.. this AI shit is gonna gut the industry and we’re *all* gonna end up poorer as we race to the bottom to compete with people for whom $100 dollars is a monthly salary. I hope you can detect the sarcasm in my words ‘above the fold’. We all have to think about what shape we want the industry to take in the coming years. You can use this stuff but you’re mortgaging your future for the present.
