We have been waiting to see what some True Hollywood’s pillars can do with artificial intelligence In filmmaking and announced today, a project that has the potential to break through in mainstream is in a great way.
“Poker Face” and “Russian Doll” star Natasha Lyonnne will make her functional director based on a script she wrote with “The Oa” and “Aneher Earth” author Brit Marling. But what really puts film Apart from is that it will be a live-action movie that will be mixed with the generative AI animation. Lyonne also collaborates with Jaron Lanier, the futuristic, author, VR Pioneer and Visual Effects Artist, on the project to give the film a new look and show what they think AI can really do.
The film is also about the very gap between Live-Action and AI and why even when technology has improved immensely, the audience is still a way away from completely accepting it. The film is called “Uncanny Valley”, and it is located in a parallel present universe where a teenage girl named Mia begins to lose her grip on reality when a globally popular Augmented reality video game begins glitching fever with increasingly dangerous real consequences. Generative AI will be used to imagine the video game with the open world shown in the film.
If your intestinal reaction is that generative AI has no place in filmmaking and is just theft of other people’s work, the Lyonne film makes through the AI animation company she founded with brown Mooser, Asteria. Asteria positions herself as ethical and artist -ledAnd it recently launched its AI model called “Marey” as it says is the first “pure basic” model, one that is transparent about the copyright on which it is trained and made to preserve creative integrity. “Uncanny Valley” will be run by Marey developed by the engineers at Moonvalley.
In fact, Lyonne and Asteria have gone a step further and recently some of the people were that the tip and one Open letter that questioned certain proposals to the US government by both Google and Openai It tried to eliminate the regulation of AI, make the exception of copyright laws and allow specific AI companies to train their models without applying for permission.
“AI can enable larger visions on the screen – but we must also fight with its countless complexity about the artist’s rights,” Lyonne said in a statement. “Our goal is to meet these against and help form new industrial standards and protection. We are also involved in discovering the new jobs inherent in every industrial revolution. As a lifelong member and armchair historian in showbiz, it feels important that we come together as a creative society to meet this technical wave with the faulty
Asteria CEO Mooser, Lyonne and Justin Lacob will produce the film for Asteria, as well as Marling and her creative partner Zal Batmanglij.
“The scope for what is possible with these new techniques when used ethically and creatively is astonishing,” Lyonne said in a statement. “Getting something so bold to life feels radically expansive and exciting. I am extremely grateful for this opportunity from Asteria and to witness this growing era from the front lines.”
“Science fiction can be a powerful resistance tool – imagine what might be instead of what is,” added Marling. “With Asteria’s team, we hope that pioneers’ ways to use AI that allow filmmakers to tell stories with high concepts on budgets that enable real innovation. Natasha and Jaron are real risk recipients and to collaborate with them has been incredible.”
“It’s an incredible privilege to work with Natasha and Brit,” Lanier said. “I can only thank my happy stars to collaborate with these amazing masters of their art. There is a story here about technology, but it is really about people and the unpredictable connection thread that goes with us over generations, technology and divergent weirdness.”
“When it comes to new technology, many artists are afraid to lean in,” Mooser said. “But Natasha and Brit again proved what separates them as class manager in artistic genius: they are not only creative forces – they are fluent in the language for emerging technology. I am extremely proud Ateria can help to bring their radical vision to life. When trailblazing artists lead the technology instead of the other way, unexpected and revolutionary progress.
Lyonne will soon be seen in season 2 of “Poker Face” which debuted on peacock on May 8. She has most recently played in “His Three Daughters” and has a role in Marvel’s “Fantastic Four: First Steps” and is expressed characters in “Smurfs”, “Bad Guys 2” and has a role in Taika Waititi “Klara and The Sun.” Her production banner Animal Pictures will launch season 2 of “Second Best Hospital in the Galaxy” on Amazon on May 27.
