that’s where AI tools might be interesting, get approachable enough for individuals/small groups to tell independent stories without the massive budgets and without the massive studios, let it be janky and low production values, who gives a shit about that stuff if the story is well told and funny as fuck and innovative aesthetically

Good writing makes a movie 100% of the time. Writing is an art. Good writing is hard to do but appreciated by true movie people.
yes I agree, and AI isn’t doing good writing yet, that’s for sure, I’m thinking more about the opportunity for telling stories visually and AI tools for this are definitely getting to an exciting place. Have been making some visual stories lately and incorporating animation, and it’s promising (and I went to art school, am artist and designer and believe me it helps to be an artist to get good results from AI!). But the tools have to be open source and freely modifiable without guardrails.
