Don't Be Scared of AI Films — Because They're Here to Stay!

#960B: Filmmaker John Semper made the charming animated tale "The Singular Affair of the Missing Ball," which delighted the NYC audience at the recent premiere of the 10th Annual NY Dog Film Festival. After decades of producing and writing shows, particularly the iconic Spiderman series, using AI was a fun artistic experiment for him. Semper discusses general fear and confusion about AI and how people have historically resisted change and pushed back against new technology — but since the Motion Picture Academy (that gives out the Oscars!) embraces AI animation, so should the Dog and Cat Film Festivals!
