AI creative summit

The second annual AI Creative Summit has revealed further details of its line-up, with key sessions focused on how content can be created using GenAI text-to-video platforms.

Produced by Screen International and its sister MBI brands Broadcast, Broadcast Tech and MPTS, The AI Creative Summit will take place at BFI Southbank in London on November 6.

The AI Creative Summit will hear from filmmakers who have used many of the available generative text-to-video tools and the lessons they learned during the process. They will explain the process involved in generating their films, how long it took to create them, how they refined the output to better suit their needs and what they think the future is for genAI-driven content creation tools.  They will offer useful tips about what AI text prompts produce the best results, and how to modify your prompts to help create video clips that match your vision.

The available text-to-video tools include OpenAI’s Sora, for which users are presently being closely controlled by OpenAI, Meta’s recent release of Meta Movie Gen, which enables users to create 16-second video clips for each set of prompts and powerful applications including LTX Studio, which is making it possible to visualise concepts and generate full projects from prompts.

Two of the standout GenAI video-making sessions at the AI Creative Summit are outlined below.
