Foundations
You'll learn how AI actually works in a professional filmmaking context, how to think ethically and responsibly, and how to approach tools as a director rather than a technician. This stage establishes the vocabulary, mindset, and workflows that everything else builds on.
Creativity & Ideation
Learn how to use AI as a creative partner to develop ideas, stories, characters, and worlds. You'll explore story structure, narrative arcs, and how to turn a loose concept into a clear creative direction using large language models without losing your voice or taste.
Pre-Production
This is where ideas become a plan. You'll learn how to build worlds, design characters, write prompts like a director, create shot lists, and develop visual language and consistency before generating motion. Think of this as AI-native location scouting, casting, and storyboarding.
Production
Learn how to generate cinematic images and video, control camera language, lenses, lighting, performance, and motion, and choose the right AI tools for each task. You'll understand when to use text-to-video, image-to-video, or hybrid workflows to maintain quality and control.
Post-Production
You'll finish your work like a professional, learning AI-assisted editing, visual effects, sound design, music, color, and final polish. This stage focuses on quality control, cohesion, and delivering work that feels finished and intentional, not experimental.
By the end of the course, you'll understand how to move confidently through every stage of AI-native filmmaking and create polished, portfolio-ready work.
