Submitter Statement
I strive to make simple and understandable AI films that touch every viewer, regardless of whether they are familiar with AI or not.
I'm Pavlo. I create short AI films. In my free time, I am passionate about video editing and drawing. I love creating images and videos using AI. I believe that the development of AI allows every creative individual to fully unleash their talent. I strive to use AI to tell engaging stories that evoke empathy from viewers. I aim to keep my stories simple, straightforward, and relatable; I want them to feel like complete films that resonate with the audience, whether or not they are familiar with AI. I am confident that this will help draw public attention to the capabilities of artificial intelligence in cinematography, and also give me the opportunity to address issues that have always concerned me, such as social inequality, the inertia of the human psyche, and so on. I draw my inspiration from classic cinema, animation, and computer games.
