Artist statement

Al realities is a non-narrative, experimental short film exploring the new and ever-evolving power of artificial intelligence (Al) and technology. I used ChatGPT to create ideas and then transformed those ideas into reality using Unreal Engine S (UES). The work explores wonder, imagination, creativity and realism, and shows how Al can be used positively rather than negatively as depicted recently in the media. This film aims to defy societal norms and create something that will change the perspective of the audience. Every scene and detail was digitally hand-crafted to provide the highest possible realism and showcase what amazing new technologies can do when used creatively.

Process

I created all the 3D animation environment scenes using Unreal Engine. The wireframe animation was a separate frame-by-frame animation. The beginning shots were filmed by me and edited in Adobe Premiere Pro. The audio files were sourced from Epidemic Sound, which is licensed to the school, then combined with post-production effects and audio design. I compiled all the environments and completed the final compositing in Adobe Premiere Pro to deliver this film.
