From last year’s chatgpt to this year’s Wensheng video generation application sora, intelligent content production technology has rapidly iterated. In the Jinjue Forum, the movie market and the coffee shop in the Silver Star Lobby, the word “ai” will always flash in my ears these days. sound.
So, entering the era of artificial intelligence full of imagination, how will film creation change? Yesterday morning, the 26th Shanghai International Film Festival Science Fiction Film Week opened in Songjiang. Guests at the theme forum came with questions and thoughts.
technology update takes a big step forward
"In 2019, I supervised the production of a movie (" decisive moment "). The last clip was a color image of the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China in 1949. At that time, the restoration team told us that artificial intelligence restoration Different from traditional CG restoration, it is fully digitally captured and re-encoded, which may produce a huge change." Huang Jianxin, a well-known director, screenwriter, and producer, recalled that he was very surprised the day he saw the restored version, "It is indeed complete. Changed. Later, when the movie premiered, the audience also applauded this part and praised that they had never seen such a clear representation of the founding ceremony. That experience made me feel that artificial intelligence has taken a big step forward in the expressiveness of movies. "
The future is here, science fiction writer Wang Jinkang said frankly: "When I wrote "The Song of Life" in the 1990s, I still looked up at human society with the eyes of a child. In the novels I write now, AI has already appeared. It’s like looking down on humans.” From a practical level, animation director and mecha designer Masaharu Kawamori made no secret of the changes brought about by technology: “In animation creation, we used to use manual drawing now. It presents many choices and gives many unique designs. We will make adjustments and modifications on this basis. "
Integrated wisdom temporarily lacks creativity
" Many of the distinctive and personalized things we create may not suit us. The creative rules and artistic rules that have been summarized, even sometimes, are not done right according to traditional concepts, and the result is a new form of artistic exploration. This is not easy for me to use generative artificial intelligence now. "Despite the efficiency brought by technology, director and screenwriter Dong Runnian also pointed out the unsatisfactory aspects of AI, "When artificial intelligence generates a picture, I hope it can generate something beyond human imagination. It may appear, but now it appears less and less frequently, and it is more and more like something created by an average creative human being. "He said that AI now is holistic intelligence, which is put through the Internet. All the intelligent units are combined together, and it does not have very vivid experiences in life as an individual. “In particular, most programmers and engineers do not understand the language of art and audio-visual aspects. When designing, they can only grab all the visual materials found on the Internet for analysis and summary, and those of us who create art do not understand the language of designing programs. Logical thinking. This requires both parties to communicate and understand each other's thinking, so that this kind of general artificial intelligence can at least understand our needs for vision, video or art, and then it is possible to reach an agreement. Experimenting while doing AI must eventually serve people
"We who work in technology sometimes lack experience in artistic creation, and feel a bit like talking on paper and working behind closed doors." As an expert in the field of AIGC digital content generation, Dai Bo, a young artificial intelligence scientist, also came to the scene. , "Technology + movies must be really combined, just like the computer animation production system 40 years ago. In fact, we are doing it, trying to use it, and upgrading it, until we finally find a state that everyone thinks is good." He He said that he hopes AI can interact and simulate the digital world. "This is the concept of the 'metaverse' that everyone often talks about before. In other words, AI should ultimately serve people and how they can better communicate and follow each other." We hope that AI can communicate with the world, communicate with people from the past, or communicate with ourselves in different emotions."
Wang Hongwei, chairman of the Science Fiction Film Working Committee of the Chinese Filmmakers Association, said that the technological updates brought about by artificial intelligence, combined with the new demands of all audiences for entertainment methods, are likely to give rise to some new narrative arts, narrative experiences, and scenes. The art of experience, “it may be related to past experience, or it may be completely different.” Regarding the future, Huang Jianxin said: “I think the new round of AI (development) will definitely play an important role in improving human living standards. It will also bring us some confusion and a very complicated feeling. When facing it, we are full of curiosity and desire for knowledge. Because we are curious, we want to know; when we know it, we want to use it; when we use it, we have many relationships with it. So artificial intelligence is our best friend for movies.
