The Crow
Winner of the Jury Award at the Cannes Short Film Festival in 2022, 'The Crow' was the first AI-generated film to take a prize at Cannes. Glenn Marshall found his inspiration in 'PAINTED', a viral 2012 choreography short, and fed frames of its dancer, Dorotea Saykaly, into OpenAI's CLIP as image references, so the neural network reinterpreted her movement frame by frame as a crow in a desolate landscape.
A fascinating and thought-provoking glimpse into what was ahead, and an important milestone on the path to a new era of content production. The video also walks through how it was made.
