The “uncanny valley” is the graveyard of most AI filmmaking projects. We’ve all seen the symptoms: the “floaty” movements, temporal artifacts, and sudden character morphing that occurs when the model loses track of the latent space. To the casual user, it looks like a glitch; to a Senior Creative Technologist, it’s a sign that the creator is still using “training wheels” workflows. The magic isn’t in a single, complex prompt—it’s in the technical “hacker” pipelines that treat AI as a visual effects department rather than a magic wand. If you want to move beyond jittery generations and into intentional, cinematic AI filmmaking, you have to stop asking the AI to “make a movie” and start directing it through specific, post-production-inspired workflows. Takeaway 1: Stop Prompting, Start Storyboarding for Consistent AI Filmmaking Maintaining character consistency across shots is the hardest problem in AI filmmaking. If you generate shots individually, the “seed”… read more
