Using #AI for filming Interviews

At ATB Productions we’ve been weaving in AI, more and more into our workflow, from SFX, music, and graphics we are exploring all things in #AI FILMMAKING. We recently used Generative Fill to add stuff in the background of some interview shots, adding in a painting on a wall that was otherwise bare. At ATB Productions we do all kinds of shoots ranging from Documentary work to corporate to commercials to non-profits. The interview shots range in budget, time, and level of acceptance that we are constantly playing in an “unknown” situation. We can’t count how many times a client only option to shoot is the tiniest of office spaces. We want to see what we could do in though situations to be able to enhance / change and improve. Let us know your thoughts on how we did and if you see yourself doing this in the future or is it too gimicky? WATCH BELOW and Let US KNOW!

At Across the Bridge Productions, our motto for years was from Concept to Completion, we looked at ourselves as a design + build video production company. What do you need done?

Depending on either your budget or the cost of the idea execution, here’s how we’d do it, and why.

This concept portion is crucial as it sets the stage for everything. The tone, pace, style. Desired result. Everything.

As a creative, sometimes aligning that vision with client expectations can be tricky. Show me what you are going to do before you do it mentality. It’s often we show references, it’s This kind of “iPhone Ad meets Dollar Shave Dollar”. <—- this is basically everything made for a 5-year period.

Well, this creative process is a lot easier today, than it was even two years ago. Now with AI, I can make instant visual reference just by typing it in.

No More searching databases or the internet for visuals that are close to what you want, not you can just type it. Okay, How about a Commercial Reference for an Engineering firm in the style of Wes Anderson, done.

STORYBOARDS has always been the next logic step and still very much apart of the process. AI again, with some prompt training using industry specific turn can yield results rather quickly and make leaps and bounds on connecting Client vision with Directors vision.

AI is going to save time all around the video production process, but more importantly, it’s going to unlock more ideas. Communication is key to satisfaction and completion. These tools are making that process clearer, and faster.
