Description:


    What happens when cinematic direction becomes as simple as writing a sentence? Jon Finger explore how recent breakthroughs in generative video are enabling creators to visualize and iterate on complex scenes using natural language alone. Join us for a deep dive into the potential unlocked when AI models understand physics, light, and motion—and how this shift is transforming storytelling in games, film, and animation. This is a conversation about tools, focused on the broader implications for artists, designers, and the next generation of visual storytellers. Organizer – Jon Finger, Luma AI
