About

Building on a successful first edition with over 1000 participants at Paris Convention Center, the AI ShortFest will return to spark up more discussions on AI's transformative impact in filmmaking. This year again has been marked by a surge in research breakthroughs like SORA and in numerous filmmaking support tools, including those from our previous sponsor, Pika.

We believe this festival serves as a vital hub for dialogue, driving the narrative on how artificial intelligence is shaping and will shape the future of the cinematic landscape. We invite you to join this essential conversation at the upcoming AI ShortFest.

Keep an eye out for updates on call for entries, prizes, and distinguished guests.
