My talented colleague Stephen Silver ( talks about utilizing generative AI techniques in animation. In particular, Stephen says it's here to stay. Like any tool it can be used and/or abused. In this video, he talks frankly about its impact and then shows an AI short from Staircase Studios. Staircase is embracing AI and hiring artists, writers and directors at industry rates to produce animated entertainment. You can decide for yourself about how real it looks and how it holds up as a piece of entertainment.
"Pouya Shahbazian, a producer on the Divergent franchise, has launched Staircase Studios AI, an artificial intelligence-driven film, TV and gaming studio.
"Staircase touts its own proprietary AI workflow, ForwardMotion, which claims to be able to produce near-studio-quality movie releases for under $500,000 each. The studio, which said it aims to produce around 30 low budget projects in the next three to four years, unveiled a teaser with the first five minutes from its debut feature, The Woman With Red Hair, directed by Brett Stuart and from Michael Schatz’s 2016 Black List script" -- Hollywood Reporter
