“THAT WILL NEVER WORK.”

A short film inspired by the Netflix startup story.

Back when everyone thought mailing DVDs in envelopes was a ridiculous idea, @marcrandolph and @reedhastings kept going anyway.

113 attempts. One win.

The willingness to keep trying when the odds, the outcomes, and everyone around you are telling you to stop.

That’s what this story is about.

Inspired by Marc’s book—That Will Never Work.

Made entirely with AI filmmaking tools:
@OiiOii_Official & @Kling_ai

No real actors or locations were used in this film.

Just a story worth telling, with tools that didn’t exist five years ago.

I’m hyped for Solana Summit Germany 🇩🇪

The more I learn about what’s being built on Solana, the more excited I get about seeing the community come together in Berlin.

Builders. Creators. Founders and everyone in between.

June 13 can’t come soon enough.

@OpenAI this wasn’t made with AI btw.

@MarkBenjaminAI “create and have fun”

too real.

[bogey @fejisol]

have a deadline in a little over 24hrs and i’m just generating the first still.

this one took 30+ regenerations before getting it right, was being really specific with the output.

absolutely loving the @genflow_ai workflow so far.

might share a full walkthrough later.

@DiscussingFilm apple lowkey releasing goated movies.

[bogey @fejisol]

@SheriBanks thanks sheri, i’m glad you enjoyed it!

[bogey @fejisol]

@PixVerse_ okayyy.

[bogey @fejisol]

@SoribeStella @ardaistudios @invideoOfficial insane visuals.

[bogey @fejisol]

@timikareem everywhere my bro.

it’s just hard finding a really good one with vocals.

[bogey @fejisol]

the struggle of trying to find the perfect non-licensed track for an emotional trailer.

been scrolling for hours and nothing is hitting the way it should.

sigh.

[bogey @fejisol]

love the comment section under this post.

the author just dislikes AI as a tool for filmmaking.

[Falco Schäfer | MUSE Studio @falcothebard]

Hard disagree. As a director you also use your words to orchestrate on set. You verbalize the vision in dialogue with the crew.

Wether you communicate it to AI agents and the cinematographer being a video GenAI vs. a human crew, is absolutely irrelevant.

You sit down and think about each shot and frame and why it works or doesn't work for narrative impact.

I can go on. AI filmmakers in my eyes, makes you more of a filmmaker with less constraints to experiment than ever before in history. And you can do it as a one person crew with a ridiculously low overhead.

You have more sovereignty to get the visuals inside your head just right.

Dude, I remember hating being on set while daylight started fading, everyone panics— you get the shot but its mediocre at best. Plus, you just burned through the budget because you wanted an expensive crane shot. 😂

Fuck, I am still traumatized of Avid Media Composer corrupting an entire day of shooting. 🫠

All of that disappears with AI and you remain in full control. This era is freeing filmmakers.

Either way, cinema remains an art and still requires talent for visual story telling, irregardless of the medium used.

[bogey @fejisol]

three things i do before i even touch the video model:

- generate the stills first for world building (locations, environments, character sheets, key scenes).
- map out the shot progression for every scene.
- lock in the visual technicals beforehand (style, color grade, lens choices, mood, tone, etc).

makes the entire process way more intentional and saves a ton of iterations later.

[bogey @fejisol]

@eliott__mogenet @higgsfield_ai @aionthelot if that’s actually $500k in credits, that’s insane.

indie filmmakers spend less than that on entire productions

maybe marketing and distribution are baked into the number? even then, it still feels way too expensive for an AI film.

totally agree with the second point.

[Mike Miller @pt5films]

The solopreneur filmmaker is the new archetype.

One person handling writing, generation, sound design, editing, color, and distribution.

It's exhausting and...

...it's the most creatively free anyone has ever been.
