Presenting the teaser of Fanaa. My latest AI short that I have been developing and updating as the tech is improving. @dreamina_ai @runwayml @LumaLabsAI @ElevenLabs

[Devang Shah @shahdevangn]

2.2M+ views and counting.
Made a fictional AI commercial in a week. AI helped produce it, but the idea, humour, screenplay, casting, design, music, and pacing were human.
The biggest lesson? Stop waiting for permission. Build things. Fail. Learn. Repeat.

Meet "Tawan" (ตะวัน means “The sun” 🌞)

20-min Demo
AI Animated Film experiment (full feature is 90 mins)

With a $500 budget and 1.5 months of work, this story is based on my original idea from 2010... and today, the technology is finally ready to bring it to life.

AI showed me that solo creators can now manage an entire animation workflow. No need to pitch to big studios—you can fund yourself and bring your own stories to life. Without AI, this would still be stuck in my head.

(Of course, the quality is still far from high-budget films from big studios that have 300-600 people behind them, but I think the gap will close step by step in the future.)

This animated created by Seedance 2.0 on @dreamina_ai and @kinovi_ai and opening scene by @midjourney - thank you for watching.

I created this new ad for all my fellow hopeless romantics! The bougainvillea showers, streets of Jodhpur, and moonlit serenades. But remember, nature never compromises. And neither should you!
Thanks for creating such a fantastic AI filmmaking assistant @LumaLabsAI

[Devang Shah @shahdevangn]

No bounds of budget, cast, location, physics or even biology in making an ad film — this isn't where AI video was six months ago. This is something else entirely.

And it wouldn't have happened without an early access to @LumaLabsAI new Luma agents.

Visited Cineteca Nacional de Mexico. I also got to watch some old Mexican classics as well featuring Pedro Infante and El Santo. Reminded me of the lengths filmmakers have gone through to communicate their vision. The conviction and the belief in something truly larger than life.

Excited to take my filmmaking journey global, starting in CDMX.

Any gaming developers?

Easily the most stunning piece of art I've come across in a long time. Stunning in the most literal sense, I couldn't move. It felt like I was transported to netherworld. Provocative. Outlandish. Fearless. 'The man on fire' by José Clemente Orozco.

Finally got my hands on Veo 3.
Uff the reflections and the lighting.
Inspirations: Kalinga architecture in Odisha & SL Haldankar's Divine Flame

Just dropped my AI short film made in 48 hours for @runwayml’s #Gen48. Set in a surreal future India, it follows a young rider racing to deliver a package in 60 seconds. 100% AI visuals #AI #AIfilm

As Taliban writes a new chapter in Afghanistan, these young kids choose to dance over death.
Film uses AI as a tool where cameras cannot reach & brings to life testimonies that open window to life inside a war-ridden country. Watch now: https://t.co/ecQaALby3w #AIFF2025 #AIArt

I had got an early access to #Sora few months back, when I played around extensively with text-to-video prompts. Sharing some of my favorite clips that prompted around the nostalgia of single-screen theatres in #India...and then I set it all on fire, because why not? #AI

[Devang Shah @shahdevangn]

#Sora is pretty good at capturing nuanced expressions. Here's a coy, seductive, graceful Indian princess. @OpenAI #AI #Generativevideo
