"A new animated movie made mainly with AI could challenge the time and resources it takes to put together a Hollywood production. According to a Sunday report from The Wall Street Journal, OpenAI is giving its tools and computing resources to a new feature-length movie called "Critterz,"which follows the journey of forest creatures who embark on a quest after a stranger intrudes on their home. Chad Nelson, a creative specialist at OpenAI, conceptualized "Critterz" three years ago while experimenting with OpenAI's image generation tool Dall-E."
""OpenAI can say what its tools do all day long, but it's much more impactful if someone does it," Nelson told WSJ. "That's a much better case study than me building a demo." After being introduced at Cannes, "Critterz" is expected to be released in theaters globally next year. In a press release on Monday, Vertigo Films said the film will be funded by Vertigo's Paris-based parent company, Federation Studios. With a budget of less than $30 million, the movie would cost less to make than a standard Hollywood film."
OpenAI is providing tools and computing resources to a feature-length animated film titled "Critterz," about forest creatures who embark on a quest after a stranger intrudes on their home. Chad Nelson developed the concept from experiments with the image tool Dall-E and expanded a 2023 short into a full feature with London and Los Angeles production partners. The project aims to showcase AI-driven production capabilities and plans a debut at the Cannes Film Festival, followed by a global theatrical release next year. Vertigo Films and Federation Studios are funding the film with a budget under $30 million.
