As with all things ai, it’s debatable. One way or another someone loses a job. You could make the argument that someone just wouldn’t do a proper storyboard since they can’t afford it and create stick figures, but he for sure can afford storyboard artists.
I don’t think that one way or another someone loses a job with all things AI.
That’s the lie the grifters are trying to sell. “Look we’re gonna automate workers, you need to invest in the next industrial age, stop hiring humans”.
The fear is selling AI like hotcakes more than the AI is producing.
And I’m hardly saying AI is worthless. It isn’t. I use it on a daily basis for my day job. But it’s not replacing workers just like Google search didn’t really replace workers, the same way wikipedia didn’t either. It just made things more easy to do quickly sometimes, and sped up information search and access.
I think people unfairly call it a “worse Google search” when it’s a very different sort of tool, but very similar to the situation before and after Google and Wikipedia came out. It has its place but it’s not everywhere, and it’s not going to make workers redundant as much as that it’s selling point. I used to say maybe customer service, but even then it’s layer zero for dumbass questions and shouldn’t have any sort of trust to fuck with accounts.
In this specific instance, storyboard artists will lose jobs. I know this, because I am handed ai storyboards that would have otherwise been created by people we would hire. More and more of my clients are using ai boards, and just not hiring artists.
Same thing is happening with scripts. I haven’t hired a copywriter in about a year, since my clients are using ai for that as well. We also use ai, but I am aware that I sometimes have removed a role that I would normally have paid someone to do.
Ai will indeed remove some people’s roles in the equation.
I think he’s just giving these AI concepts to actual storyboard artists as it says he’s “using it to communicate to his team”. AI boards def are being used, I see it in advertising production but tbh we never hired storyboard artists either was always just some AP doing decks. It sucks that big productions are only using it though, I just didn’t get that vibe in this instance. His films are almost certainly union jobs and wouldn’t fuck with Al taking any role in production.
Doesn’t seem like most people in this post understand filmmaking. They’re usually a lot more like a technical diagram than a piece of art, especially early in preproduction.
It’s also really hard to explain what you want to someone without several revisions
Most commercials I’ve been on still do test shoots even with storyboards made. They just use iphones. And as for my direct industry, I’m in animation, storyboards are really essential since you can’t just create the whole project from the start. There is also definitely an art to doing storyboards, not ever artist I’ve worked with can do storyboards. I knew a few people whose career was just storyboards. So much can be discovered through storyboards, especially if all departments are involved.
