48 Hours Film X AI FILMHACK
RSVP doesn't guarantee entrance to the event, please apply here.
AI is changing how films get made. Most people are still watching from the sidelines. Not you not this weekend!
The AI Movie Sprint is a 48-hour, in-person filmmaking challenge: up to 100 creators, 20+ teams, pitch to premiere in one weekend. Friday is hands-on workshops across the full AI pipeline: concept, image, motion, voice & sound, edit. Then the clock starts: you form a crew, pitch, and build a real short film with your team. Sunday night, it premieres on the big screen at a cinema screening with awards.
The weekend:
Sat, Nov 8 Pre-event workshop: filmmaking & AI basics, meet the group
Thu, Nov 12 Panel: "The Future is Hybrid" (industry event)
Fri, Nov 13 Connect & Go: registration, workshops, pitches, crews form, 48h clock starts
Sat, Nov 14 Build & Push: full day of production and editing
Sun, Nov 15 Finish & Premiere: submission deadline, cinema screening, awards
The screening from our last "Classic Film Challenge: Movie Sprint".
💶 Entrance is free. Applications are open now!
Who this is for:
Aspiring and active filmmakers who want practical AI skills. Creatives exploring how AI fits real production. Experienced AI creators who want a real challenge. Writers who want their story on screen in two days. If you come as a creator, AI experience is definitely needed. You want to leanr? That's what our Meetups, Labs and the Friday's workshops are for.
What you walk away with:
A finished short film, premiered in a cinema in front of a full house. A real AI production workflow you can run again on Monday. Working directors and AI specialists in your corner all weekend. A crew of people who make things, not just talk about making things.
The one rule: you're in for the full sprint! Teams depend on each other. A half-committed teammate breaks a film.
Spots are limited and applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. Earlier is better. You can apply here.
THE FUTURE IS HYBRID!
