š¬ AI Film Festivals & Contests: Free Portfolio Builders with Real Prize Money
Ok guys, I'm sooooo excited about this. If you are in the AI Animation Masterclass, then you've been learning the pipeline, you've been building your skills, you've been testing tools... and now here's your chance to actually DO something with all of that. I'm putting together a list of AI film festivals and competitions I keep an eye on. Click the link here to see the Updated AI Film Festivals These aren't mine, just the ones I find interesting and worth your time. And honestly? This is one of the best things you can do right now as an AI director. - Even if you don't win, your work gets seen. - Festivals screen your films to judges, audiences, and industry people. - That visibility is GOLD when you're just building your portfolio. - You can enter solo OR team up with someone from our community. - Make a short film, an ad, an experiment. It all counts. And from my experience? Winning isn't even the point! ā The deadline forces you to FINISH something. And a finished film, even an imperfect one, is worth a thousand ideas stuck in your head. So if you've been saying "I'll submit something someday," today is a great day to start. Pick a deadline and work backwards. That's how you become a director, not just someone who talks about making films. Drop a comment if you're thinking about entering one. I'd love to cheer you on! š
