I was grateful to attend the Lumara Film Festival hosted by
@AskVenice.
As someone who's watched a lot of generative films for my AI Film History project, the biggest takeaway from tonight is that we've reached a new level of quality and storytelling.
I first noticed the shift in June at Runway AIF, and tonight deepened my belief.
You first realize the shift in those magical moments when you're carried away into a story. Where the distance between you and the screen feels nonexistent. The finalists screened today reached that level.
These are true artists excelling at their craft. 👏
