Stop making AI slop. Learn to direct AI films that actually look professional, then premiere yours on the big screen.

Roan Weigert will lead a practical masterclass covering creative direction, traditional filmmaking, AI generation, visual consistency, editing, sound, & delivery.

Roan has directed more than 1,600 videos for 400+ companies across 6 countries & has been featured on TV, print, radio, & online in the US & Brazil. He has published research in top journals, written a book on generative AI video, & repeatedly produced viral videos across platforms. He also creates on YouTube & hosts the AI Insights San Francisco podcast.

As DevRel AI Lead at GMI Cloud, Roan partners with frontier AI labs, which gives him firsthand knowledge of production workflows & early access to video-generation models before they launch publicly.

Partners from Frontier Labs will demonstrate their technology & support teams during the AI filmmaking hackathon.

You will leave with a finished short film, a practical production workflow, & new collaborators across filmmaking, technology, & generative media.

Sponsors will provide thousands of dollars in top AI tool credits for participants to use during the event & afterward, so they can continue creating.
