AI Storytelling From An Early Adaptor's Point of View, Filmmaker Jon Finger, Part Two.

7/2/2024
The conclusion to my fascinating chat with Filmmaker Jon Finger, my guru of AI filmmaking tools, discusses their impact on the creative industries from the perspective of an early adopter. While acknowledging tools like image generation raise valid concerns, Jon believes AI can empower independent artists by lowering barriers to distribution. Jon shares experiences experimenting with AI storytelling but finds human connection vital. He stresses respecting one's creative process over shortcuts. We chat about AI-assisted editing, generative content, and licensing issues for visual creators. The take away is hopeful: AI can supplement but cannot replace human creativity or the fulfillment found through disciplined craft. Thanks Jon for a great chat.

Filmmaker Jon Finger Quells Our Fears Of AI Storytelling Tools. Part One.

6/27/2024
Jon Finger, my guru of AI filmmaking tools, discusses their impact on the creative industries from the perspective of an early adopter. While acknowledging tools like image generation raise valid concerns, Jon believes AI can empower independent artists by lowering barriers to distribution. Jon shares experiences experimenting with AI storytelling but finds human connection vital. He stresses respecting one's creative process over shortcuts. We chat about AI-assisted editing, generative content, and licensing issues for visual creators. The take away is hopeful: AI can supplement but cannot replace human creativity or the fulfillment found through disciplined craft. Thanks Jon for a great chat.
