@SouthernTexMex@IAFieldReport “The contemptible delight in his voice is chilling” lol what? You’re scared of him? Why? You don’t live in the state so what’s the point in the bot reply? If you’re not a bot you are clinically retarded. Just diagnosed you.
The Art Directors Guild, IATSE Local 800 #adg800 has issued a statement on Martin Scorsese’s recent promotion of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI):
"Mr. Scorsese, The Business is not in flux.
Oscar winning director Martin Scorsese is turning his back on the human artists who throughout his career have helped him create his most memorable works.
In the recently released Black Forest Labs video promoting their generative AI product FLUX, Mr. Scorsese asks the question, “how do you communicate what you see in your head to your cast and crew?” He claims the solution is the use of this generative AI program to do the jobs that are rightfully the jurisdiction of Art Directors Guild Local 800 artists and designers - human artists and designers who have been successfully collaborating with directors to visualize their films for decades. Mr. Scorsese's promotion of a generative AI product circumvents the input of Art Directors Guild Local 800 art directors, graphic artists, illustrators, production designers, scenic artists, set designers, and other talented Union professionals.
Generative AI is only capable of producing this type of “cinematic intelligence” by ingesting large swaths of copyrighted work, likely scraped from the internet without consent, credit, compensation, or transparency.
The skills of Art Directors Guild Local 800 artists and designers bring the highest level of value to any film or television production. To think their professional contributions can be mimicked or outshone by generative AI, which is built on work likely stolen from them and many other artists from around the world, is a betrayal of the collaborative nature of cinema."
@IAGovernor You may be schizophrenic and are definitely an alcoholic. What the fuck are you talking about “freedom must be passed on to be preserved” & “legacy of liberty”? What are you even fucking saying here? It’s all just buzzwords

He could easily make his own website, upload the MP4/mkv/soundtrack/extras/high resartwork/etc, pack it all into one zip file, and not have to split it with many people outside of the cast and crew. No companies and just people making art. Why would he waste time on a D2C service when he already has the marketing and would be seeing way different splits if he released it independently?
Genuinely asking bc it feels like Patreon is trying to sell more than they're able to provide a lot of the time. They (y'all) don't even have lossless audio uploads or 4K video yet as far as I can tell. Why would any film director go there in 2026 when most people have full surround setups and 4K TVs at home? Patreon doesn't have an app for AppleTV, GoogleTV, etc. and the iPhone/web apps are mediocre at best — it'd just be a hard sell to a serious artist imo
