Future Film: Q&A with Jon Flynn, Head of FoxNXT

​Future Film is thrilled to welcome Jon Flynn, EVP and Head of FoxNXT at Fox Entertainment.

​Before Fox, Jon led AI strategy for Media and Entertainment at Google and worked in Data and AI at Microsoft. Now, from inside a major studio, he's focused on how AI and next-generation technology can shape the way stories get developed, produced, and brought to audiences, working across scripted, unscripted, animation, and marketing, with an eye on keeping creatives at the center of it. On LinkedIn, he describes his mission as: "Promote the story, protect the art, drive artists to the front."

​In this live Q&A, we'll talk with Jon about what he's building at FoxNXT, how studios are approaching AI production, which tools and workflows are worth paying attention to, and how editors and filmmakers can position themselves for the new roles and opportunities opening up as the industry changes.

​Jon spoke on a panel at AI on the Lot last week in Los Angeles and served as a judge for the Cinema Synthetica film competition. Before the Q&A, check out his excellent LinkedIn piece, “Three Days at AI on the Lot, from the Stage and the Jury.”

​This is a rare opportunity to hear directly from someone leading AI inside a major studio about where the work is headed and what comes next.
