3 Hours of Making an AI Film Start to Finish (Watch Me Fail)

Описание: $6,139 in one sitting. 800 generations. 8 shots that made the cut.

This is Day 4 of trying to make a fully AI-generated 80-minute feature film for Cannes. In this episode I generate two scenes start to finish — no editing magic, no skipping the failures — so you can see exactly what the iterative AI filmmaking process actually looks like. You'll learn how to spot slop vs. cinema, when to abandon a generation, why the keyframe matters more than the prompt, and the framework I use to turn 800 failed attempts into shots good enough to (hopefully) premiere at Cannes.
