AI in creative processes: beyond the tools

Tools are not (ultimately) important. Something else is. Ever since generative AI became a thing in content production - all of 3,5 years ago - what we’ve predominantly talked about (if we’ve been interested in applying gen AI in our work) has been the tools.

The generative precipice — where we stand

Evolving at speed In October 2022, just as we all started to test out generative AI, LLMs etc, and getting the first notions of a true shift in the world looming just on the horizon, I wrote a blog post about AI-generated art with the subtitle: “AI art is disruptive as hell.

Transmedia and a promise unfulfilled

The original promise of transmedia (...or, at least the promise as I understood it when I entered into the field many years ago) When Henry Jenkins was among the first to popularise the term “transmedia storytelling” in 2003, way before I had even a notion of the practice and philosophy, he and others were describing…Read more Transmedia and a promise unfulfilled

Reach, visibility and engagement part three – platforms

Reach, visibility and engagement part two – target groups

And it’s exactly that which we’ll discuss in this post - how to look at and address your…Read more Reach, visibility and engagement part two – target groups

Reach, visibility and engagement part one – topic

This post is a part of a series on how to analyze a project - most likely in the documentary genre, but also applicable elsewhere - to arrive at a better understanding of what possibilities, challenges, required actions and necessary collaborations can be identified and acted upon to help the project to reach its full…Read more Reach, visibility and engagement part one – topic
