Hey, welcome! 👋 I’m really glad you’re here. This whole thing — the AI Filmmaker Lab — is about experimenting and figuring out how to make AI films feel cinematic instead of just… AI. We’re gonna learn together, share what’s working, what’s not, and push each other to make better stuff. Here’s where to start: - Introduce yourself over in the Introductions area. Just a quick post — who you are, what got you curious about AI filmmaking, maybe what you want to create. Doesn’t need to be fancy. - Check out the starter course. After you say hello, go through the short course I made. It won’t take long, but it’ll show you the process I use to generate cinematic films. Real simple, real practical — something you can try right away. What to expect: every single week, something new will drop here. That could be a fresh prompt, a new course, or another resource to help you level up. So if you’re just joining and it feels a little light — don’t worry. This Lab is alive, and it’s going to keep growing week after week. That’s it for now. From here, share your work, your experiments, even the messy stuff. This isn’t about being perfect — it’s about moving forward and creating together. Glad you’re here. – Cameron

I just added a quick post on the Shooting Ratio in AI, and why not every take is a keeper. Here’s the truth: in traditional filmmaking, often only 1 in 10 shots makes the cut. The same goes for AI. If you’ve been frustrated that most generations don’t hit the mark, you’re not alone. I get frustrated too. That’s the process. Multiple takes lead to the magic. Check it out now in Director’s Notes (in the classroom).

I just dropped a brand-new Nano Banana workflow video — and it’s only 4 minutes long. If you’ve been curious about how Nano Banana works, this is your quick crash course. Simple, straight to the point, and ready for you to experiment with right away. Jump in, try it out, and then share some of your results with the community. Can’t wait to see what you come up with. 🚀
