5 days agoYeah I got the take from “to communicate to his team” was aka kinda “pre-storyboarding” to illustrate his concepts to a team of creatives which eventually will include real storyboard and concept artists. If it’s just a tool for a writer/director who doesn’t really do concept art to help a real professional in that field hone his ideas, that’s an acceptable use of AI imo. Just as long as none of it actually is used in the storyboards/concept art.
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.
