When I see most AI stuff online, you see people who really don't know what film language is. You see a compilation of AI shots and think they are doing well. People forget that AI filmmaking is time-consuming and requires real skills. Quite simply, people who can't make anything decent without AI won't be able to do it with either. I am very happy with productions like this, it shows that it will definitely be the future. Always interested in a behind the scenes video "the making of". As I keep saying, AI will not replace creative people, AI will only replace creative people who refuse to use…

This is a perfect example of how human talent remains essential to advancing any artistic medium. In the arts, no experience is ever wasted—AI can enhance and elevate every creative effort. But innovation still depends on understanding the fundamentals first; you can only break the rules after you’ve learned them. Cinema is not threatened—it’s evolving. And AI, when used as a creative tool like in this case, shows exactly how it can help move the medium forward. Outstanding work!

Having been around since black and white tv and movies along with am radio and vinyl records to where we are now I find this to be most impressive. Glad to have lived long enough to see, carry on.
