Neon Secrets—The Awakening
Overview
Neon Secrets—The Awakening is a film made with AI tools such as chatGPT, Midjourney, and Runway. The story is about a dystopian cyberpunk future concerning the topic of surveillance.
This film is produced by me and Xiaoran Zhu. We wanted to push the idea of post creativity and experiment on how AI can challenge the traditional mass production CGI in the limited amount of time with only two people working.
Concept
Reimagine a future with powerful AI and surveillance, people have no privacy and secret. The story happens in this dystopian yet plausible future, Zara and Theo are a couple falling in love with the vision of fighting against surveillance.
My Role
Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sounds like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest.
Process
After me and Xiaoran came up with the idea, we feed the idea to ChatGPT and generated the script. Then, I came up with prompts to generate the storytelling images in Midjourney. Based on the images, Xiaoran generated video and voiceover by AI tools, then edited the film.
