​Video Generation Hackathon 🎬

​Build with AI Presents | Powered by BytePlus & A47 Media

​📅 Saturday, 28 March 2026

​🕙 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM

​📍 Kuala Lumpur (on-site)

​🎟️ 600 spots only

​Why

​Everyone has a story to tell. A brand to launch. An idea to explain. A message to spread.

​But until now, producing video content meant hiring a production crew, renting equipment, learning complex software, or spending thousands on freelancers. Most people never even tried — not because the idea was bad, but because the barrier was too high.

​That changes now!

​AI video generation has reached the point where anyone — regardless of technical skill — can produce professional-quality video content from a single prompt. The question is no longer "can I make this?" It's "what do I want to say?"

​We believe the next wave of content creators won't come from film schools or production houses. They'll come from communities like this one — people with ideas, courage, and the right tools.

​How its going down

​We're bringing 600 creators together for one full day to learn, experiment, and ship real AI-generated videos from scratch.

​You'll get hands-on access to Seedance, ByteDance's latest video generation model, with free credits to build throughout the day. We'll walk you through everything — from setup to your first generated video — with guided tutorials and on-site support.

​Then you create. You'll have ~5 hours to create a short video (30–45 seconds) under one of three competition themes. The best videos win cash prizes and bonus credits.

​This is a create day. You are a creator.

​What

​This Video Generation Hackathon is a full-day, hands-on competition where you use AI to create a short video under one of three themes:

​🎙️ Theme 1: The AI News Anchor

​Create a realistic AI-avatar news broadcast segment. Pick a trending topic, generate an AI anchor, and produce a short news clip — complete with graphics, B-roll, and a professional broadcast tone. Could your clip pass as a real news segment?

​📱 Theme 2: The Social Media Brand Avatar

​Design an AI avatar as the face of a brand on TikTok or Instagram. Create a 30–60 second short-form video — a product launch, brand story, or campaign teaser. Make it scroll-stopping.

​🎓 Theme 3: The AI Explainer

​Create an educational explainer video using an AI avatar as the host. Teach a concept in under 90 seconds — science, finance, culture, anything. Make the complex simple and visually captivating.

​You choose one theme. You Create it. The best video in each theme wins.
