About this Event
As AI reshapes filmmaking, how does a director maintain authorship, performance, and creative control? Drawing from his experiments combining generative AI, motion capture, Unreal Engine, virtual cameras, and facial performance, Alton Glass breaks down an evolving hybrid filmmaking pipeline that moves beyond prompting toward a more directable process—keeping human performance and the filmmaker's creative vision at the center.
