Inside the event
https://aifilmmakersummit.com/
The AI Filmmaker Summit is a new two-day event bringing together filmmakers, animators, music video creators, storytellers, creative technologists and AI pioneers exploring the future of entertainment.
For the first time, creators working with generative video, virtual actors, AI-assisted production and emerging storytelling tools will have a dedicated gathering in the UK focused entirely on AI filmmaking.
Join 200 creators for two days of talks, panels, screenings, practical sessions and networking with the people shaping the next generation of cinema.
Topics include
- AI filmmaking workflows
- Animation and virtual performance
- Music videos and experimental storytelling
- Building AI-native studios
- New business models for creators
- Distribution, festivals and audience building
- The future of entertainment in an age of AI
The summit will feature keynote presentations, creator panels, demonstrations, showcases of outstanding AI films, and opportunities to connect with fellow filmmakers, artists, toolmakers and companies working at the forefront of the field.
On Saturday evening, attendees are invited to a special AI Film Showcase and Summit Social, featuring screenings of exceptional AI-created short films followed by networking drinks.
Hosted at the University of East London's Docklands Campus, the summit is designed to be intimate enough to foster meaningful conversations, while bringing together enough creators to feel like the centre of a rapidly emerging industry.
Whether you're making narrative films, animated shorts, music videos, commercials, experimental work or simply trying to understand where storytelling is heading next, the AI Filmmaker Summit is a place to meet collaborators, discover new tools, exchange ideas and help shape what comes next.
