How a Hollywood Director Uses AI to Make Movies - Ep. 12 with Dave Clark

You can break into Hollywood with a movie you made alone in your room.

Dave Clark can show you exactly how in < 60 minutes. He’s a film director with a body of work that includes both feature films and commercials for brands like Google. His latest achievement is a stunning sci-fi short that got Hollywood’s attention, one that Dave made exclusively using AI.

  • How to integrate ChatGPT into the process to craft compelling stories
