The Colorless Man (AI-Assisted Short Film)

I’m happy to share my new AI-assisted short film, “The Colorless Man.” This film took 2 weeks to complete during my free time, with a budget of $600 USD. I used various AI tools to explore how far AI-assisted film production has come.

Based on estimates from other producers and filmmakers, a film like this would typically cost between $300K and $500K without AI, depending on the scale of production. It would also require around 70 people and at least 2 months of work. Thanks to AI, this was reduced to just 1 person, $600 USD, and 2 weeks of non-continuous work.

First, I wrote the story and screenplay, then I used various AI tools to turn my script into visuals. I used ChatGPT, MidJourney, and Dreamina for images; Kling AI for videos; ElevenLabs for voices; Dreamina AI for lip sync; Suno AI for music; and MMAudio or ElevenLabs for sound effects.

Thank you for watching!

No thank you.

Something looks off. Is this AI generated?

[–] s08nlql9@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's in the description. I'll update the post

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Totally missed that. Thanks for the update. I have nothing against this AI art as long as it’s not passed off as something else. It’s just another tool. Very neat idea.

Fucking Ai slop

Could tell this was AI slop just from the thumbnail

Not a fan of AI stuff, but I have to admit that the story is very decent and the style and execution of it is outstanding.

The AI-ness of the movements are very prevalent

[–] s08nlql9@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

AI films will take time to be there, but if you read the description, it only took him $600 to make it.

I do wonder about the future of acting. I suppose real actors will transition to stage theatet, and the era of blockbuster acting is likely over
