Two weeks ago, we blew up on Twitter and sparked a debate in Bollywood, after voicing how reaching to Sam Altman is easier than Karan Johar. A side of the internet cheered for us 20-somethings organizing the AI Film Festival. On the other side, Vir Das made a video about us. A popular film critic Sucharita critiqued us. But we have always been convicted that the work of a critic is easy. The bitter truth critics must face is in the grand scheme of things, an average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than the criticism designating itself. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations, and, the new needs friends. We at localhost HQ and Invideo are providing a space for these new underdogs of AI filmmakers to show the world how far AI filmmaking has reached. And how most of the world is completely oblivious of its advancements. We are here to show the world AI video is here to sure, take some production jobs, but simultaneously, allow any one to dream and create videos, like never before, without $100M budgets. Whether you agree with us or not, if you have an open mind full of curiosity, consider coming to the Screening of the AI x Filmmaking Festival, on November 2nd, 6PM at Royal Opera House, Mumbai. People who have made AI films in 7 days, will have their work screened here amongst other parts of the agenda, which includes a panel with a Bollywood director, actor and influential people in the industry. Also expect a red-carpet, robots walking around, a jazz-band and more. We are already running a waitlist, but are prioritizing people in Bollywood, academics and professors, government officials, world changemakers, and soaring technologists. Consider coming, and best case, try to get a warm intro to us.
