I remember Michael Bay saying similar about shooting digital over analog film in the early 2000s...

[Variety @Variety]

Guillermo del Toro says he'd "rather die" than use artificial intelligence, "particularly generative AI," in any of his future films:

"AI, particularly generative AI — I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I’m 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. … The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I’d rather die.'"

Major update, #AI 'assisted' works with 'enough' human creativity are #copyright eligible. Lots of vagueness here, but this definitely compounds the speed at which AI will impact the #film + #TV #production, #screenwriting & #distribution realm.

[Roope Rainisto @rainisto]

Interesting bit of the US Copyright Office latest guidance on AI and copyright

- prompts alone are not copyrightable, but a combination of AI editing steps can lead to work where "the output should be copyrightable"

(!)

Don't forget the inflation... (Still, analysts are optimistic about media growth in 2025--and so am I).

[Deadline @DEADLINE]

Even though there’s still $2B-$3B missing in the post Covid annual domestic box office, 2024 is coming in at an estimated $8.72B, -3% from 2023’s $9B

Great thing abt #christmas movies is they're scalable. The stories/plots are the same but budgets can be $200k to $10M depending on cast / 'Our Little Secret’ Trailer: Lindsay Lohan Faces Off With Kristin Chenoweth in Netflix Christmas Comedy https://t.co/JzF7QyQV9g via @variety
